JUSSI GOMAN – 1.618.
2022-09-05Jussi Goman’s new exhibition presents his recent contemplations on the concept of perfection or, more precisely, its measurability. One yardstick that is used for defining perfection, both in nature and art history, is the Golden Section. This ratio also known as the divine proportion recurs everywhere in nature, from seashells to horns and antlers. Goman offers his own take on the Golden Section in his wittily nuanced idiom of painting, engaging his brush in pursuit of perfect proportions and harmony of color. The artist is intrigued also by how contemporary society so readily embraces a supposedly universal fact such as the notion that the perfect proportions of the Golden Section must automatically be perceived by everyone as pleasing to the eye.
