Dag Erik Elgin - Profile |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| "Painting comprises a vast and illustrious tradition, which you are unavoidably made part of. You enter a field which not only carries with it the weight of its own history, but also represents a medium that has lost its privileged position. Basically, one should be well informed without indulging in nostalgia. At the same time, one should be allowed to act freely, move forward and do something which is not necessarily "new" but which has actuality and lends itself to dialogue. Maybe the younger generation has a more relaxed manner of working, without too many overly serious viewpoints about the death of painting, commercialism, painting´s status and other related matters? Even the so-called new media are encumbered with convention, genre and tradition. So, in a sense, painting can be said to have lost some of its purely anachronistic stance and has simply become one among many co-existing aesthetic practises. The abandoning of conventional genre divisions and the shift towards inter-medial art practises put the emphasis on content, ideas and concepts rather than media-specific strategies."
