“I never have restricted myself into a frame of a particular technique. My techniques are determined simultaneously along with the subjects of my works. It is similar to the works of a poet, the form of a poem is determined at the same time as its content.” FormSubjectsParticularPoetDeterminedTechniqueWorking It Author:Guity Novin
“Some say it appears that painting has come to an end. I say the problem is that the painters' curiosity has come to an end, and this is more observable in the West and not in the East, since in the East there are plenty of untouched and unexplored spaces that could still inspire an artist as sources of creativity.” StillsEndsProblemArtistSpaceCreativityInspirePaintingSourceWestCuriosityEastPainterPlentyUnexplored Author:Guity Novin
“These days there are painters that go inside a factory in order to be inspired by the noise of machines, so that it affects their works. Of course, artists need sensibility; sensibility towards their environment and their community, but when they are stirred enough by their experiences in their society they can create their art in small studios.” NeedsArtEnoughArtistOrderCoursesCommunityEnvironmentMachinesInspiredStudiosNoisePainterThese DaysFactoriesSensibilityBe Inspired Author:Guity Novin
“Seurat and Signac mixed paintings with the dry and abstract laws of science. This approach, in my opinion, usually strays from the purpose of art in general. Because it means that one cannot expect from an artifact, that is created with mathematical laws, to establish an improbable and irrational relationship between the work and the viewer.” MeanArtLawPurposeOpinionPaintingApproachMathematicalAbstractDryIrrationalViewersImprobableArtifactsPurpose Of Art Author:Guity Novin
“I am biased towards the belief that every painter must be grounded in strong and faultless drawing skills, and until one has not experimented with all styles of painting and has not comprehended their potentialities one's work is not complete. Even an abstract painter must know how to draw as well as a figurative artist. As for me, drawing has never created any problem, since I know how to draw anatomy correctly if I had to, I understand the function of muscle groups and sculpture.” IfsKnowsWellsProblemArtistBeliefStrongKnow HowGroupsStylePaintingSkillsDrawsFunctionDrawingPainterAbstractMusclesGroundedSculptureAnatomyBiased Author:Guity Novin
“In my paintings, the question on whether figures are similar or not is not of any importance, the slightest change of figure or color can create a new painting and it doesn't really matter if a subject is revisited by an artist repeatedly. With enough time in between paintings, an artist can always bring to it something new.” IfsMatterEnoughArtistSubjectsFiguresColorPaintingImportanceSomething NewEnough Time Author:Guity Novin
