Baku’s Modern Art Museum hosted the opening ceremony of the personal exhibition of Azerbaijan's honored artist Museyib Amirov on January 15.

Museyib Amirov, 51, a graduate of Azerbaijan's State University of the Arts, conveys the dynamism and vibrant beauty of the present day by using heavy and deep brush strokes.

Opening the ceremony, Khayyam Abdinov, Executive Director of the Museum, and curator of the exhibition Chingis informed the visitors about the artist and his works.

The visual appeal of the artist "Look at life at close range!" on the completely new stage of Amirov’s works shows his relaxed attitude to destructive processes taking place in the world.

People who are involved in the processes, often forget about the life itself. The works of Amirov, coming from the unconsciousness in different forms are one part of a big protest to the impending rule of the faceless total domination.

The author's version of modern history is presented at the painter's canvases in the form of grotesque and thoughts are documented with stylized images overflowing format of canvases.

Man is trying to escape from an alien technical environment. However, paradoxically, that is the people who create industry and high technology, which has now overshadowed them. Thus, a creative person depends on his "creativity".

Today all what was created for the benefit of mankind has turned against it. The very things pushed us from the usual format of natural life in an artificially created lifeless virtual environment.

A city built by a man, now has no place for its creator. Technical progress and regress of spirituality which are results of an imbalance of natural harmony are instituionalized in the human genes.

The exhibition which is part of a larger art project, "Bach" (Look), features 13 paintings and 20 graphic works by Amirov. The exhibition is open for public until February 10.
