collections

One gallery offers to feel the points of contact between photography and painting, the optic and the illusory. To see the original trajectories of thought, gaze and imagination of the creators

Mikhail Kaban-Petrov collection

Within the photo collection, Mikhail, as in his canvases, is interested in the monotony of horizontal compositions, the energy of color and shape contrasts, the tension of ruptures and the temporality of captured moments. The artist guides the viewer through familiar places, revealing a ringing metaphysical silence — of object, light and space

"Childhood-2"
This collection is united by an associations with childhood — keyholes — portals, worlds in wardrobes, great dreams, the vast expanse of the sky. The naïve look pushes the boundaries of ordinariness, plunging the viewer into a world of boundless fantasy, memories and reflection

collection "Emphasis"

The Emphasis collection is dominated by the color palette. The viewer concentrates on the impact of color, bright spot, fracture. Involved in the world of coloristic overtones. How does the periphery define the center? What is the frame and what is the inner image? The associative swing sways between primary and halftones, allowing the viewer to experience the nature of color, the expression of accents and contrasts, and their impact on the perception of space.

collection "Vector"

The vector of movements is the fundamental narrative in the work of Mikhail Kaban — Petrov. Wide horizontal compositions are emphasized by objects directed in different directions and the figure of the artist himself. This series is closest to the author’s pictorial view. The photos in this series tell the viewer how the imagination and the creator’s view work with the composition. How a line creates a canvas, how a new life is born from a point.

collection "Landscape"

The Landscape collection explores the world around each of us. Bottom and top, earth and sky, are woven together in almost decorative photographic canvases. The relief of different landscapes: earth, bark, sky, grass and snow are emphasized by the bas-reliefs left on them. The view of the world as a whole canvas, where one material is superimposed on another, and a man with outstretched arms stretches across the ground like paths. This collection celebrates the strength and wholeness of nature against the artificial discontinuities produced by human actions.

collection "Highlights"

The 'highlights' collection reflects on the themes of light and shadow. Good and evil.
Is a ray of light highlighting or blinding the details of an object? Painting a real picture or embellishing it with its dynamic rhythm? Two realistic scenes are juxtaposed with impressionistic still life, showing the different ways in which light shapes and communicates with the subject and affects the viewer.
