EDITORS COMMENTS
This still life painting, titled "Still Life" and created in 1915 by Russian artist Alexei Javlensky (1864-1941), is a stunning example of Expressionist art. The work, now part of the esteemed collection at Stiftung Im Obersteg, showcases Javlensky's mastery of oil on cardboard technique. The composition is a rich and textured tableau of various objects, arranged in a harmonious yet unconventional arrangement. A vase of sunflowers, their petals wilted and vibrant, sits at the center, their golden hues contrasting the cool, muted tones of the table and the background. A crumpled piece of fabric, a glass, and a bottle of wine add to the sense of decay and the passing of time. Javlensky's use of color and brushwork in this still life is both bold and nuanced. The artist's expressive and emotive brushstrokes breathe life into the inanimate objects, imbuing them with a sense of energy and vitality. The play of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the scene, creating a sense of volume and texture that draws the viewer in. The artist's exploration of form and color, as well as his use of unconventional compositions, were hallmarks of the Expressionist movement, which sought to express emotion and inner feelings through art. Javlensky's "Still Life" is a testament to the power of art to capture the beauty and complexity of the world around us, and to evoke emotions and thoughts that resonate deeply within us.
