7. Portrait of Actress Luna Davidova [1980s]

The name of Genko Genkov is a symbol of creative freedom and the assertion of one's own artistic outlook. In his early paintings from the late 1950s and early 1960s, his painting is delicate and tonally moderate. The direction he chooses in the following decades is towards increasingly active values ​​of color in compositionally simplified natural landscapes and portraits. The painting "Portrait of the Actress Luna Davidova" is a vivid example of the portraits that Genko Genkov worked on in the 1980s. of the last century. The work captivates the viewer with its sonorous color, the light that the colors emit and the energy with which the bright ribbon-like strokes are applied. It has all the characteristic features of portraits by Genkov, namely: dynamically applied texture with varying degrees of pasty layering of the paint; bright color values ​​of the colors that create a stained glass effect; dark background. The painted surface is enriched with strokes that the author scratches on the oil paint with a knife or comb. He has been using this technique since the late 1950s. As an overall color and plastic construction, we can rank "Portrait of the Actress Luna Davidova" among the most characteristic and impactful portraits of Genko Genkov. (S.N.)
