Our breathing\u2014the air we inhale and exhale\u2014quickens or slows with the events of our lives, making everything intangible more vividly perceptible: all that is as unpredictable as the Mistral wind, as refined as the taste of wine, and as light and touching as a French melody.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b><i>The works of two artists, Anton Totibadze and Sasha Pasternak,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>presented at the \u201cFresh Air\u201d exhibition and devoted to a happiness one can breathe in deeply, invite you on a journey through France, from Bordeaux to Provence.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_8811-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-26301\" src=\"https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_8811-300x120.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"658\" height=\"263\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The paintings and graphic works of Anton Totibadze and Sasha Pasternak<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>may be described as touching, unusual, and silent all at once, imbued with mystery and a certain melancholy. The \u201cFresh Air\u201d exhibition brings together several genres: landscapes, still lifes, and trompe-l'\u0153il. The artists\u2019 world is a frozen frame woven from memories of a journey through France.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Anton Totibadze\u2019s understated still lifes and landscapes are striking in their complexity, associations, allusions, and subtle humour. Rooted in the artist\u2019s own feelings, Anton\u2019s works are remarkably direct and precise, as is his visual style\u2014documenting the everyday life of the contemporary world at a particular moment, with all its mysteries and wonders, its emotions and mischief.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Totibadze comes from a family of artists spanning several generations of masters. Over the course of his professional career, Anton has therefore become closely acquainted with a wide range of genres and styles of painting and has developed an original style of his own, one that has by now become instantly recognisable.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_8730-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-26303\" src=\"https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_8730-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"462\" height=\"308\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Each of Alexandra Pasternak\u2019s paintings is a carefully selected fragment of reality in which every element occupies its proper place and all the parts exist in perfect harmony. Sunlit colours convey a sense of light, depth, and multiple planes with consummate precision, bringing Alexandra\u2019s works to life despite the almost geometric arrangement of their objects.<\/p>\n<p>This theatrical quality is no coincidence. Alexandra Pasternak trained in theatrical painting and stage design; her vision grew out of this experience, which she incorporates into her art. In Alexandra\u2019s work, this combination of simplicity, geometry, and attention to detail becomes the artist\u2019s means of entering into dialogue with her viewer.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-26294-2\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-26294-2-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-26294-2-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"2\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><strong>About the participants:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_26309\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26309\" style=\"width: 303px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Photo-Romain-Da-Rugna.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-26309\" src=\"https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Photo-Romain-Da-Rugna-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"303\" height=\"404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Photo-Romain-Da-Rugna-225x300.jpg?v=1785277296 225w, https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Photo-Romain-Da-Rugna-768x1024.jpg?v=1785277296 768w, https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Photo-Romain-Da-Rugna-1152x1536.jpg?v=1785277296 1152w, https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Photo-Romain-Da-Rugna-1320x1760.jpg?v=1785277296 1320w, https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Photo-Romain-Da-Rugna-300x400.jpg?v=1785277296 300w, https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Photo-Romain-Da-Rugna-700x933.jpg?v=1785277296 700w, https:\/\/kvartiras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Photo-Romain-Da-Rugna.jpg?v=1785277296 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 303px) 100vw, 303px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-26309\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Romain Da Rugna<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\"><span class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\"><strong>Anton Totibadze<\/strong> was born in Moscow in 1993 into a family of artists.
