Some incoherent thoughts about Michael Horsky’s recent paintings
These paintings are living bodies.
The top layer seems to throb. The victory of the painting’s version over other possible solutions arises just temporarily. Is the REAL painting still moving under the oily skin and waiting for its appearance?
Radical surface.

History is keeping the present alive though time doesn’t have fixed directions/parameters.
Emptiness lies in abundance.
Loneliness is the measure of all things- so the glance of these figures is enraptured as if they had no choice.
Hope or damnation is not a criteria whatsoever.
