Spür
An art platform, an exhibition, a vision.
The independent art platform "Spür" was founded in Dresden by Aren Shahnazaryan and Quang Tran. Since not only the sales price but also the alleged value of artworks is now linked to the conventional art market, the two artists decided to go their own way. The basic idea of "Spür" was born: an alternative to the conventional art market, a place for young talented artists to show their art and evaluate it themselves.
Now the vision becomes reality, together with Ana Pireva and Narek Arzumanyan, Aren Shahnazaryan, and Quang Tran each show an excerpt from their oeuvre.
For Aren Shahnazaryan, his shown works sum up the mood of his art. With them, he explores a subject that is still unknown, even to Aren. The motifs show something changeable but also something that cannot yet be fully grasped.
Figuration, abstraction and still life are the core of Quang Tran's artistic work. In addition to his signature, the works also show an evolution in Quang Tran's work. From a reduced color palette and pasto color application to clear colors and more lightness.
Ana Pireva also works with still life but in a completely different way. While her ink works represent a deeper psychological and philosophical analysis of still life, the paper objects express her curiosity about paper as a material. Ana's art is characterized by the desire to create something new through experimentation.
New is the theme that connects Narek Arzumanyan's works. Being new in Germany, working with new materials and that they are being shown to the public for the first time. For the artist, the intimate and honest works symbolize self-integration in Germany and also what "Spür" is all about, bringing together things that seem very different at first glance.
