Description

Pavel Filonov, one of the most enigmatic and visionaries artists of the twentieth century, offers us in "assailant (assailant) - 1928" a door to its particular universe, an almost hermetic cosmos that challenges conventional interpretation. The painting, belonging to the movement of Russian buffuturism, reflects Filonov's concern about the dynamic and intricate elements of modern life.

The work in question is a symphony of meticulously interconnected details. At first glance, the composition may seem chaotic, but under the attentive supervision, organization and rhythm patterns are revealed. In the center of painting, the human figure emerges as the nucleus, blurred and almost ethereal, perhaps reflecting the fragility and vulnerability of the individual against the oppressive forces of the urban environment of the time.

Using a predominantly terrible palette with tones of brown, ocher and black Filonov accentuates drama and emotional intensity. The touches of white and blue in the main figure and the funds provide contrast and depth, guiding the observer through an intricate labyrinth of shapes and figures.

The "assailant" characters are, in many ways, archetypal. The central figure has a severe and almost monstrous expression, fragmented in multiple planes and facets, evoking a spectrum of emotions and social roles. Filonov does not seek to portray a specific figure; On the other hand, it creates an abstract and faceted representation of the human being, probably reflecting the impact of destabilizing socio -economic contexts on individual identity.

One of the most notable aspects of this piece is the confluence of geometry and organity. The forms seem to be intertwined with almost mathematical precision, but at the same time, they flow with an organic naturalness. This duality is characteristic of buffuturism, a movement that fuses cubist fragmentation with the speed and dynamism of futurism.

The Filonov technique, known as "organic analysis", is evident in this work. Its thorough and almost obsessive approach in the details creates a living surface, full of textures and layers that seem to move and change according to the viewer's perspective. This density of visual information not only gives the work a sense of complexity, but also invites a prolonged and repeated contemplation.

It is impossible to consider "assailant" without referring to the historical context in which it was created. In the 1920s, Russia was in a period of transition and seizure after the October revolution and the consequent civil war. Filonov, who experienced these turbulence first hand, channels through his art a deep and allegorical comment on the socio-political realities of his time.

In this sense, "assailant" can be interpreted as a criticism of the dehumanizing forces of modernity and industrialism, as well as a meditation on the personal and collective struggle for identity in times of radical change. Palpable anguish and tension in the work reflect a moment of history that, although distant, resonates with contemporary concerns.

In conclusion, Pavel Filonov, with "assailant (assailant) - 1928," gives us not only a painting, but an immersive experience that challenges the borders of perception and interpretation. It is a piece that, with its complexity and depth, remains relevant and provocative, inviting us to explore the multifaceted nature of the human being and the transformative impact of the historical context. His ability to live with the organic and geometric, the individual and the collective, assures his enduring place in the canon of modern art.
