Texts 1983

"Texts" is a 1983 work by Ukrainian artist Oleksandr Aksinin. The work, created during the last two years of his tragically short life, is a captivating example of conceptual art. The diamond-shaped canvas is divided into two sections, one in red and the other in green, each filled with handwritten text. The text appears to be from a diary or other personal document, suggesting a focus on the artist's own experiences and thoughts. The inclusion of lines connecting the text sections, and the abstract black and white lines surrounding the canvas, further contribute to a sense of the internal, thought-provoking nature of the artwork.
