From April 30th till May 14th took place Nikolay Krivoshein exhibition. In contemporary art of Latvia, the famous Riga artist Nikolai Krivoshein is one of the most talented Abstract painters who stabilly cultivates the aesthetics of expression and stylization. Realizing his art credo in practice, Nikolai is a man of principle Nikolai is skillful in art of precise arrangement of colour contrasts and nuances that in ensamble with an irreproachable space composition of each work create clear, emotionally rich – to man’s mind – paintings. Naturally, in course of time the creative methods and art tasks become transformed yet artist’s style remains united and his painting manner keeps its recognizable elegancy as well as visual careless. In Nikolai’s works, spontaneity and structure, lightness and seriousness, impressions and thoughts flow into a vivid stream of colours and forms sending a powerful charge of positive energy to a spectator. Painting by Nikolai Krivoshein is monumental beyond dependence on format of a picture. Attracting with their originality and decorativeness, artist’s works look very effective, fresh and interesting in any modern public or private interior stressing it’s individuality and uniqueness.
