The Book of Adam. Alexey Dubinsky

  • Alexey Dubinsky The Book of Adam

    Alexey Dubinsky

    The Book of Adam 

  • The Book of Adam is a series of paintings that explores the process of human creation. Using the form of an apocryphon — a text excluded from the ecclesiastical canon — Alexey Dubinsky views man as a god who created himself at the beginning of the path and, through doubts and choices, continues the process without ceasing.

    “The image of Adam is a metaphor. He is not a distinct character because he is any person. The Georgian language has a word for all people, people who descend from Adam — adamians. Adam is man himself. He is me, you, or anyone else.”

    MOON • ЛУНА, 2013 - 2019

    The butterfly is a symbol of the soul and the short time allotted to us. Human life is quite similar to these butterflies, who have dressed themselves in beautiful wings to fly through the flowers and gather honey. Tomorrow they no longer exist.

  • In ancient Greek mythology, the word psyche meant both butterfly and the human soul. Psyche, a figure in Greek mythology, often appeared as a girl with wings. The butterfly also appears in Dutch vanitas still lifes of the 16th and 17th centuries, touching upon the power that time has over humans and their existence.

    Gustave Doré. Adam and Eve Driven out of Eden, 1865

    The expulsion from Paradise is the moment everything starts. It is the heating up of the air before a thunderstorm; the quieting of the orchestra before the final part. Against all odds, Adam and Eve had to leave comfortable Paradise and begin this mad world.

    PSYCHE'S SHADOW • ТЕНЬ ПСИХЕИ, 2013 - 2019

    After making the choice, man plunges into any of his daily activities, and at some point finds himself a slave to conditions, conventions, positions, or societal norms.

    At the point where an acute feeling that everything is wrong arises, the shadow of the soul, of the psyche, flies by. That butterfly that was always interrupting. But now we understand that it has a lot to reveal. That which seemed evil has turned out to be something beautiful.

  • However, every choice, every butterfly, and every flower that brings hope is perishable and predestined. That is the story of Adam and Eve, Eros and Psyche, Jesus, Orpheus, and any of us. Making a choice, man leaves the Garden of Eden, overcoming the obstacles. But leaving completely is, in fact, impossible. Return is inevitable.

    Johann König. The Brazen Serpent, ca. 1601–1642

  • Garden of Eden

  • Man consciously returns to the Garden of Eden, which, as he now understands, will not exist for long. But he is now prepared to enjoy it for a long time, because he has decided to do so. Man finally admitted his weakness and fragility, and that tomorrow he will disappear like the butterfly. Despite the transience, predestination, and death, he still decides to live life to its fullest, to live forever.

    After going through all the stages in the paintings, the fleeting butterfly ends up back in the garden and transforms into a flower. But it is just as fleeting. Even Paradise is transient, lost. Perhaps that is what it indeed symbolizes.

    Beauty is eternal, but the bearer and the form are transient. Man's job is to transform into one from the other, to become a flower out of the butterfly.

    Alexey Dubinsky worked on The Book of Adam at the Gridchinhall residence in 2014. After a break, he finished the series in 2019.

     

    “Sometimes it’s best to put a project aside for a while, when you get to the point where you can't make it better by spending more time on it. Time is an important tool in the process, which is not something that can be rushed.”

    “You become involved in every part of the painting. You have to experience it and immerse yourself in this imaginary world. It is much more difficult to do so when you are using your brain and rationality, because you’ll begin to think, ‘This is crooked, I’ve drawn the wrong finger there...’ The process becomes less emotionally resonant.”

  • — Vova Lipnitsky curated an exhibition at the We Art gallery on Nikolina Gora, for which I had made a triptych. Sergey Gridchin attended and picked me right out of the crowd. He said, ‘I like everything. Why don't you come to my gallery? Here is my phone number. Let's discuss working together.’ I didn't go right away. I didn't even think about it for a while. But soon enough I took my canvases and paints, called Sergey, and said that I wanted to come visit and get acquainted. I got there, did a portrait and made a sketch, and stayed at Gridchinhall for two more days. I did some other things there, wrote a bit, and after a while I moved in.

    — When you work with a series, you are very gentle with it. You do a huge piece and you like it so much… You think you are going to become this great artist who paints big canvases with lots of paint. And after a while, you look at them and think, ‘Well, they’re just paintings. I can add something here and erase something there.’ Over time, you become more realistic and see things more clearly, without emotions, allowing you to actually complete the work. It's like good wine. You can't drink it right away, and you can only understand it after a while.

  • — I finished the series before I started working at TSUM (the Moscow Central Department Store). I had just finished a painting the day before when I got a call from TSUM asking if I wanted to try my hand there. I thought for five minutes, called back, and said yes. I had never done anything like it before and was unfamiliar with the process, but I agreed. I went to TSUM right after the “Red Project”, and there I began a new phase in my life, a new page in my biography.

     

    — There are many moving figures in the “Red Project”. Naturally, this motion was all studied in life and planned out in sketches. You have to learn how certain movements can be expressed, whether a person can move like that at all, and what such movements indicate. This is the task of the observer. The art of observation is the first thing an artist must obtain. Drawing from nature teaches one to be attentive, vigilant, and observant – to contemplate.
