Ansis Butnors / Pa ceļam / A.Sūnas galerija / 05.09.2013–21.09.2013
Arī jaunajos darbos Ansis Butnors turpina savu ilgi piekopto neviendabības praksi. Šeit ir gan postimpresionistiskas mazpilsētas ainas, gan Džeimsa Ensora citāts, gan krāsas laukumā peldošas figūras, gan teju monohroms darbs, gan grafika. Ir diezgan paradoksāli – un atzīstami – ka tajā visā ir kaut kas tieši Butnora, ka, atšķirībā no daudziem citiem, viņš pārvalda šo jūkli, nevis pazūd tajā.

In his latest works Ansis Butnors sticks to his long–employed practice of multiplicity. One finds Post-Impressionist scenes of rural towns, a quote of James Ensor, figures floating in an expanse of colour, a virtually monochrome work, prints. Paradoxically – and most respectably – there is something specifically Butnors’ in all that; he, unlike many others, seems to be in control of this multiplicity, instead of being lost within it.
