{"title":"Danil Becker","description":"\u003cp\u003eDanil was born on December 19, 1999 in Russia, in 2017 he moved to Germany, where he attended a language school and then began his studies at Alanus Art University.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 2023 Danil completed his bachelor's degree and in 2024 became a master's student in Prof. Andreas Orosz's art class.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn his paintings, he tries not to focus on a fixed theme or concept. For him, what matters most is how an artist paints, not what they paint. Nevertheless, this principle influences how he chooses the subjects for his paintings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe now focuses on interpreting other artists' works, picking random images, even those he doesn't like, and reinterpreting them in his own way to retell their story. This approach allows him to transform the original and create something of his own.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile painting, Danil constantly struggles with his inner punk and anarchist. At first he worked carefully, but he knows that at some point he will lose control – and this is where art begins for him. Mistakes happen, but he tries to turn them into something positive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhether it is figure painting, interpretations or studies, Danil’s works give viewers complete freedom of interpretation. Through absurd elements and personal allusions, Danil invites them to find their own meanings and understand his work in their own unique way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDanil about his current work:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the past year and a half, the main concept behind my paintings has been to take another artist's work as a basis and either reinterpret or modernize it. Whether I like the original painting or not is not crucial to me. What matters much more is whether I see an interesting image for me when I look at another artist's work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most important and central aspect of my painting is still the painting itself. I am constantly experimenting on a technical level and trying out new approaches. Deconstruction is an essential part of my art. I get great aesthetic pleasure from \"destroying\" something beautiful that I have created, thereby revealing the beauty of the destructive - and vice versa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short, my art is guided by an Apollonian-Dionysian approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;\" align=\"left\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"anya-does-makeup-on-a-model-of-the-us-seahawk-sh-60b-helicopter","title":"Anya does makeup on a model of the US Seahawk SH-60B Helicopter","description":"\u003cp\u003eby artist Danil Becker\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOil on canvas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 80 x 65 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the painting \"Anya does makeup on a model of the US Seahawk SH-60B Helicopter\" I chose Franz Gertsch's work \"Marina applies makeup to Luciano\" as a reference.
