The Move; Michael Jackson

Ritums Ivanovs

2009

ENG EST

Ritums Ivanovs (b 1968) is a Latvian artist. In 2010 he had an exhibition Stars. Lights on in Riga Gallery, where he depicted Michael Jackson, Madonna, Amy Winehouse and others celebrities. These stars have been the favorites of the people and the media. Despite that, they can be seen as both positive and negative heroes. Ivanovs is a masterful painter using a tiny brush. From the distance one can see photorealistic canvases that remind of a blurred TV screen. Yet, from up close they turn into abstract fields of thin lines running meditatively up and down. Ivanovs has had 28 solo exhibitions and he has been commissioned to paint Latvian president twice.
Ritums Ivanovs (s 1968) on Läti kunstnik. 2010. aastal oli tal näitus “Stars. Lights on” Riia galeriis, kus ta kujutas Michael Jacksonit, Madonnat, Amy Winehouse’i ja teisi kuulsuseid. Need staarid on olnud rahva ja meedia lemmikud. Sellest hoolimata võib neid näha nii positiivsete kui ka negatiivsete kangelastena. Ivanovs on meisterlik maalikunstnik, kes kasutab pisikest pintslit. Eemalt on näha fotorealistlikud lõuendid, mis meenutavad virvendavat teleriekraani. Ometi muutuvad need lähedalt vaadatuna abstraktsete peenikeste joonte väljadeks, mis jooksevad meditatiivselt üles ja alla. Ivanovsil on olnud 28 isikunäitust ja kahel korral on talt tellitud ametlik Läti presidendi portree.
