We are all in this alone

Yane Calvoski and Hristina Ivanoska act as sedulous, cautiously profound
prospectors and treasure hunters in the archives of the world and the history of
the Judaeo-Christian West. They are on the hunt for artistic as well as conceptual
valuables in images and words, in order to lift them up to today as instruments of
human ordered thinking and its interpretational capacity. In these the artists find
again and again a beginning trapped in constant perspectival change, life plan, and
the need for transcendence, which if nothing else, manifests in the iridescently
illuminating shade of gold, which is found in all of the leading world religions.
We are all in this alone even beyond an all-encompassing sustainability of a vision
which never offers itself as total solution but as the curiosity around the wonderful,
around the attempt at truthfulness discovered by mankind himself, carried by an
always-distrusting confidence in whatever the understanding of the respective
present might be. Didn’t T.S. Eliot see in the climate of New Criticism the basic
conditions for any relevance within, that every artistic positing newly adjusts the
view of the past and leads to a new understanding, which is an imaginary, if not
virtual, museum? And this may also be deeply full of hope, according to Albert
Camus, you find the fortune Sisyphus found in the freedom of the measured length
of the descent to the stone. “To believe because you want to believe - to give
thanks” notes Paul Thek.
