CHINIKOV

Stephan Chinikov

Born in 1969, Stephan Chinikov grew up in the city of Sofia, where he showed off his talent for painting at a very early age. He studied at the College of Fine Arts in Sofia between 1984 and 1988 and graduated from the National Academy of Fine Arts in 1994. He quickly realized that the academic style is not what his heart desires and he distinguishes himself by plunging into much freer and expressive universe. In his creations, Chinikov follows the rich traditions of European art while developing a personal touch that is easily recognizable with its distinctive shapes and bright colours. His works are the expression of a true Slavic sensuality, determined by the origins of the artist, whose predominant themes are the eternal love and happiness. “Love is the fibre of life,” says Chinikov, whose Slavic soul is fuelled by true emotions and strong feelings that he expresses and translates into his work. His sources of inspiration are The Life, The Woman and The Music.

With a real freedom of his expression and unlimited imagination, the artist constantly plays with the faces and the bodies in order to destruct the usual forms and to recreate them in an unprecedented way by his imaginary and unique universe. He enjoys constructing his paintings from spots of colour, collages and abstract forms, letting himself to be driven by the improvisation and the spontaneity of the moment. The artist himself describes his works as an intermingling of emotions and colours. This melange is often reinforced by words or phrases that take the spectator in the desired direction. Filled with boundless positive energy, the paintings and sculptures of Chinikov impress with their delicate light, captivate with their vivid colours and overwhelm with their inspiring enthusiasm. Chinikov has more than 30 individual exhibitions and numerous participations in exhibitions in Europe, North America and Asia. His works are present in prestigious private collections of art lovers from all over the world.

GEORGES MOQUAY

“The Pigments of Life”

Born in France in 1970, Georges Moquay is a French painter. He is the son of Daniel Moquay and his wife Rotraut Klein-Moquay, widow, since 1962, of Yves Klein.

Course

Until 1982, Georges Moquay lives with his family between France and Spain (Ibiza). Before leaving with his family for Arizona (United States). After his national service in 1991 as an interpreter in the French Navy aboard L’Orage, he returned to Arizona to study photography and the history of art at the University. Since 1995, he has exhibited in many places and galleries in Arizona, France, Spain, Australia …

He lives and works in Paris, multiplying the artistic and visual experiences around the painting, the music, the. Video He shot in the film of Richard Bohringer “It is beautiful a city at night”.

Born in a family where art in all its forms is the master word, a painter of color and expressive explosions, influenced by pop, rock, reggae music, by the signs of modern graphic: tags, grafs, comics …; The references to ethnic communities, Georges Moquay is an artist, fully one can situate in the line of Jean-Michel Basquiat, Robert Combas, etc …

In a paved courtyard of the XIth arrondissement of Paris, a door with two leaves opens on the workshop of Georges. Hangar converted into loft, with original brick floor and high perched frame: a magnificent volume on the scale of its large sizes.

From the start, the tone is given with his character, “the wigger” (a contraction of white nigger) that repeats itself on the walls. One is at the African time and Georges, little white, makes drawings of colors. “The wigger is my Buddha, my Easter Island, my totem,” he declares before explaining that he came this way, at a stroke, thinking of the candy dispenser whose head Rose to let out a small rectangle pastel and sweet. Ah! Childhood !

Then Georges reflected. He told himself that his character as a black man with a white face had to do with the celebrations of the death where Mexican and African are grime in white to make heads of skeletons. And as “nothing is more alive than being close to death,” he then noticed that the luscious lips of his “wigger” resembled the body of a woman lying on a sofa.

In the bric-a-brac of the workshop, where the smell of coffee mingles with that of the essence of turpentine, behind the pots of pigments which he calls his spices, there are rolled canvases. They are immense, painted all-over, with faces-masks, teeth, crosses, hearts, superimpositions of burlesque characters. They are teeming with life and color. From the hip hop culture, from rap, from M.T.V, they have a dadaist side version B.D, pop art on a background of graffiti. “I want my paintings to make me want to dance”. Monaco was not mistaken, choosing as a cover for his invitation card for the Bal de la Rose 2006 (for the benefit of the Princess Grace Foundation of Monaco) a painting by Georges.
