Alexander Valchev, iz serije/from the series Reminiscences, 2006

-------------------------------------------------------------

Na samostojni razstavi bolgarskega umetnika Alexandra Valcheva bo predstavljena kontinuirana fotografska serija 'Reminiscences', ki jo je avtor začel razvijati leta 2005. Projekt 'Reminiscences' predstavlja rekonstrukcije portretov slavnih renesančnih mojstrov slikarstva v sodobni perspektivi fotografskega medija. Avtor skozi podobe svojih prijateljev in znancev, povzdignjenih v herojsko podobje plemičev iz 15. in 16. stoletja, izkazuje duh trenutnega časa in lastnega bivanjskega prostora. Glavni namen avtorja je izraziti duhovno naravo portretirancev, ujeti njihovo globino, notranjo lepoto in dostojanstvo, kar so osnovne karakteristike renesančnih portretov. Vsaka oseba je lahko z minimalnim naporom upodobljena dostojanstveno, saj ljudje dandanašnji niso prav zelo drugačni od svojih prednikov pred 500 leti. Spremembe so nastopile predvsem zaradi eksplicitnosti medija fotografije, ki onemogoča popolno idealizacijo posameznega portretiranca – človeka, ki je po renesančnem prepričanju najbolj popolna kreacija boga.

Alexander Valchev, rojen leta 1973, je diplomiral iz kiparstva na likovni akademiji v Sofiji, a se v svojem avtorskem delu poslužuje različnih umetnostnih medijev, med katerimi pomemben del zavzema fotografsko ustvarjanje. Valchev velja za enega najvidnejših vzhajajočih bolgarskih sodobnih umetnikov, ki se uspešno uveljavlja v mednarodnem prostoru. Leta 2007 je bil izbran za najboljšega avtorja mednarodne skupinske razstave Photonic Moments in je prejel nagrado enomesečnega rezidenčnega bivanja v Grazu, ki sta ga omogočila CCN Graz in Galerija Photon. Leta 2008 je bil na umetnostnem sejmu Viennafair iz strani časopisa Die Presse prepoznan za enega izmed desetih najbolj perspektivnih umetnikov iz področja Vzhodne Evrope. V svoji dosedanji karieri je sodeloval na številnih razstavah in festivalih, tokratna razstava v galeriji Photon pa je njegova prva samostojna predstavitev v Sloveniji. Alexander Valchev živi in deluje v Sofiji.

On solo exhibition of Bulgarian artist Alexander Valchev the continued photographic series titled ‘Reminiscences’ will be presented. It was initiated in year 2005 and since then project ‘Reminiscences’ shows reconstructions of famous renaissance masters of painting in the contemporary perspective of photographic media. Artist photographed his friends and acquaintance, praised to the heroic imagery of 15th and 16th century aristocrats, in the staged positions on that basis but in the spirit of current time and its own living space. Each ordinary person might look with dignity, if the person wants to make minimum efforts. People nowadays are not much more different than those who lived 500 years ago. The changes were originated especially because explicit nature of the photography that disable total idealization of individual portrayed person – the human after renaissance belief and faith the most perfect creation of god.
