Power / Sissy Gallery01/12/2020 to - 14/01/2021 Power - a solo exhibition by artist Eitan Amram Eitan, a 20-year-old soldier, born in Paris, immigrated to Israel in 2008. Experiencing adjustment difficulties due to differences in mentality and new culture. In order to overcome the feelings of distance and alienation, he found refuge in the work and expressed his desires and complexity of life on canvas, which became the days of fulfillment of a dream and first steps in his artistic path. Eitan's pop art paintings are expressive, expressive and characterized by intense and bold colors. Eitan paints in large formats, focusing on facial expressions and figures that are a kind of mirror and reflection for the soul. Due to his young age, Eitan at the beginning of his career and has already acquired many fans whose style and special expression found a way into their hearts. The works are reminiscent of graffiti paintings, Eitan is ahead of his time in a series that combines rifle bullets as a reminder that today he is a creative soldier and artist . He corresponds with his civic duty as a soldier and with the artistic muse that attacks him and does not allow him to dedicate himself completely to his art. The works have a strong and mesmerizing presence, capture the viewer and lead him captivated by the charms of color and the dizzying brushstrokes on the canvas. In phosphorescent touches, Amram gives his personal interpretation to familiar icons, his paintings are masculine, expressive but do not embellish reality. "They asked me to write a text based on the question - why are you drawing it? A banal question but the answer raises very interesting historical and philosophical points. I think the answer to the question is at the end of the question. This is the question mark. This is the most fascinating answer I have found. Is there a need for an answer that should explain free interpretation? Can one really say the right answer when it comes to the interpretation of art? In addition, the artist has no ownership of his work. Every viewer or listener is allowed to speak freely about a work, or interpret it, and we must live according to our abilities. It is absurd in my opinion to think that the opinion of the artist is more "correct" than the opinion of the critic. Our opinions, and especially when it comes to free interpretation, are dominated by various factors like culture, religion, and the color that surrounds us on a daily basis. All this creates for us a look that is only ours. I will end with a sentence by Gregory Sokolov: "Music is not a profession, it is life. Interpretation, it is not a work of ten minutes, ten days or a month. It is the product of everything in life."
