Oil on canvas paintings by Igor Gusev, embracing the 'glitch effect.' ~ Humanists, 2015. ~ One Million Dollars, 2016. ~ Untitled (?) at an exhibition in 2020 at Château Capion, Languedoc, France. ~ Adjourned Conversation, 2017. Ukrainian artist born 1970. Igor Gusev "was the first artist to be welcomed into Château Capion as part of a residency." His paintings embrace the 'glitch effect.' Excerpt from article translated from French: "What's the glitch effect? A glitch is a technical glitch, a bug, that distorts a digital image or sound. Igor Gusev uses the glitch effect in [almost] all his paintings, disrupting his classical figurative painting with digitally stretched lines. His work thus oscillates between figuration from another era and contemporary abstraction."
