Katerina Vincourova
ABOUT THE ARTIST
For several years Katerina Vincourova has been a conspicuous personality among the youngest generation of artists in this country. Her work always attracts the attention of the public, its magic addresses and fascinates them but it also seems as if she is able to evoke negative emotion and sometimes even disgust. The seemingly naive simplicity of Vincourova installations, in fact, provide an intensive testimony of the impossibility of open communication, of hopelessness, vulnerability and of the flight and general dehumanisation of modern society. Vincourova seems to have one general theme, namely the distinction between inter-persona relationships, solitude, love, marriage, leisure time, boredom and hope. Katerina Vincourova is able to formulate the sentiments of her generation with an effective language rid of intellectual dead weight.
