Statement
Brusovani's Ark of Spirit is the result of common effort in visual art of two brothers. The elder, Yuri Brusovany, is a painter. He is the founder of transrealism, a new artistic method. The younger, Nathan Brusovani, is a photographer and a digital designer.
Art critics have been unable to define Brusovani's works, so they have had to do it themself. They call it "transrealism and multiplication" - the subjects, scenes and qualities multiply among themselves, creating a complex combination of emotions, ideas and images.
Brusovani's world of art is transparent: it is as if one theme in their images shines through another, acquiring fresh nuances while preserving and strengthening the traces of its origin.
Nathan, the photographer, has been studying photo art under the influence of his elder brother, trying to get a sensitive and complicated picture of transparent reality through the skillful use of double exposure and unusual lighting effects.
Everything in Brusovani's art is more real, more alive than in real life.
Nathan Brusovani`s photography can be seen at exhibitions in Israel. He is now exposing his work in the Internet as well - www.uniart.net
