Reality Check. Serge Game
Serge Game's work unites divergent painterly attitudes, the act and the visual outcome of painting play equal roles. Although the drawing is primarily carried out as a spontaneous action, when transferring these onto canvas the painter makes well-considered judgements in order to arrive at the definitive image. The result looks like something recognizable, but is at the same time virtually unnameable. The depiction is most reminiscent of undefined comic strip figures and architectural or organic inventions. But a genuine foothold is offered neither in the depiction, nor in the title of the painting. The result is that the observer, in search of meaning, is constantly set on the wrong track, much to the satisfaction of the artist.
