Bob Dylan is compared to Kandinsky and Rouault – The Universal

The Gallery Halcyon receives the exhibition The Beaten Path of the musician and Nobel Prize for Literature 2016 Bob Dylan, who in a text to the sample wrote that his paintings may possibly fall in the category of those made by Vasily Kandinsky and Georges Rouault.

Dylan published, in a writing that is available on the website of the gallery, that his concept is to create works with stability and work with universal objects. He explained that Da Vinci painted a blurred image, without the lines; Modian and Van Gogh are on the opposite side, with stripes that define the volumen’s space; however, in the midst of these creadores would be Kandinsky and Rouault, and that, in that same category would be his paintings.

Dylan explained that he made the attempt to represent the reality and the images as they are without idealizarlas, so that in his work are scenes of the everyday life.

The artist explained that his idea was to keep things simple, only deal with what is externally visible. He explained that the paintings are located within the realism – archaic, fairly static, but of nature trembling-, and that in contradiction to the modern world.

In his paintings of everyday life deals with scenarios such as the Orpheum theatre, in Los Angeles; fast-food outlets, fairs, amusement park rides, roads endless, the Brooklyn bridge, and more.

On its website, the gallery features a virtual tour of one of their rooms, where is possible to appreciate some of the paintings and sketches of Dylan.

The Nobel Prize for Literature 2016 wrote that if the sample had a soundtrack would be composed with the songs of Peetie Wheatstraw, Charlie Parker, Clifford Brown or Blind Lemon.

Bob Dylan broke the silence surrounding the Nobel and would be interested in attending the ceremony which will take place December 10 in Stockholm.
