What I have done so far, is divided into two main periods. The first - the seventies-eighties - was defined by the existence in the area of tremendous forces of gravity, crushing, pinned inside a totalitarian force field, frozen mirage. Staged magic all around you, any arbitrarily given moment of time and space, hypnotized, causing the game in daylight in the manner of a rabbit and boa. Able to look away, only transferring it to your own canvas. Expropriated by the wretched of the lens, sometimes with the risk to health and safety, vibrating pieces zamorochennoy reality and deal with domestic appropriation. Achieving coherence and unity was not included in the range of artistic problems: reality itself, as befits the product of high art, offers amazing, total integrity. On the other hand, this unity was something nizkokletochnoe when any slightest fragment contains and carries the whole, its print, code, chromosome set, re-presents it as a drop of water. The second period is connected with a new visual and psychological reality, . which is in contrast to the previous perceived as fragmented, . completely immaterial, . and no more need to get rid of delusions - disappeared much, . declared by the firm, . while the former only a dense, . However, after removing the external voltage has to know about yourself inside, like a deep-water fish, high and dry. What to look eyes, . bulging of orbitN What to do, . if the voltage went, . a habit of intense, . constant glaring ostalasN Gradually, attention has focused on the visible manifestations of physiological processes, . occurring in your own eye, . As word, . spoken many times in a row, . loses its usual, . everyday meaning, . bubbled, . foliated and multiplied by different meanings in different dimensions, . and the constant glaring at the world around us shows the vibration of the visual space, . existence of a middleware, . passing through which, . being processed them, . visual impressions are transformed, . and then find a different nature: you can always watch the emerald-purple springs, . changing the configuration and run out of sight, . the mechanisms of residual vision, . projecting on the closed eyelid, . as screen, . kind of negative version of the, . had just seen his eyes open, . morning or alcohol reproduction of objects, etc., .

Criticism
Hotya Faibisovich not avoid explicitly political imagery in his work, his approach is still far from Sots Art. Just as Komar and Melamid, he noted this year as a grand farewell to communism. But unlike them, and from his older friend of Eric Bulatov, . which is also exposed and ridiculed the ideological roots of the Soviet visual mythology, . Faibisovich mesmerized organically visible manifestations of Soviet reality with its cloth, . colors, . air (or its lack), . Could the air be perceived as sovetskiyN And even paint the car train, wallpaper in the apartment, the asphalt on the streets, stucco houses would be as ideologically okrashenyN And the sky color of the party flagaN Faibisovich proves just that. . In his genre paintings have nothing on Hogarth, . because its subject is not a social evil, . and the air itself, . atmosphere of doomed optimism, . prevailed in Soviet streets and in public places, . mood, . apparent not only in the grimaces on the faces of Soviet citizens, . but above all in that special light and color, . can not be found anywhere else in the world, .

Through the picture, as if through a window, through absolute reality - the art of life inherits. But our heritage and the arts, and I think that life will often have color and flavor of transparent painting Seeds Faibisovich. Admire through anything unlimited, multi-layered transparent screen becomes a necessary condition for world vision.

Fight with life in its most concrete, most commonplace, the cheapest terms begins when art ceases to be a known "good", and begins to be such, it should be. When it occurs by itself, is not clear from what. Who's Who Who pobeditN peretyanetN In a duel of art with the life of one of the two should make another change its nature ". Why this over-pristalnostN Perhaps, in order just to see the divergent sutures visibility oche-visibility. Notice how the evidence reveals its ghostly nature and remit the plastically. Overcoming the material, overcoming materiality, objectivity, ideally - aimless painting.

Simon Faibisovich undoubtedly belongs to the space of so-called modern art - an art concept, interpretation, hard work with the cultural meanings. However, it has always featured some kind of innate belief in the value of plastic visual experience. In terms of actual artistic space, . reminiscent of an interdisciplinary colloquium on the philosophy, . History and Cultural Studies, . his confidence seemed, until recently, a slightly archaic, . but now, . in a crisis as plastic, . and conceptual directions, . artistic language Faibisovich perceived as the most relevant, . Belief in the non-exhaustion of visual experience for art allowed him to use all the expressive means of photographic, . abstract and figurative painting and, . creating a complex field of interaction of various cultural and historical contexts, . achieve the effect of a holistic perception of emotional, .
