Introduction and Artistic Background
Konstantin Gallari is an artist, digital painter, and composer who creates in his own style of neo-cubism, a new look at painting and digital art based on emotions. His journey into the art world took an unexpected turn with the emergence of digital platforms. NFTs, in particular, had a profound impact on his career. He recounted, "As an artist, I was very influenced by NFT. I got to know digital art in 2020. I began to study programming and the cryptocurrency on which NFT is minted. And already in 2022, I released my 10,000 - piece collection dedicated to the problem of climate change.”
Inspiration for Artwork
Gallari's creative wellspring lies within his own emotions. He revealed, "I am inspired by emotions, and it is on them that I rely when I create. I want to convey my feelings, my experiences, thoughts, and outlook on life and the world. What I see inside is the underside of all life on earth." This emotional core is what drives his artistic expression and gives his work a unique and personal touch.
Views on AI - Generated Art
Gallari is firm in his stance on AI - generated art. "I am skeptical about artificial intelligence! Because I believe that it cannot completely replace man and art. When an artist creates a painting, he gives away a part of himself, a part of his heart. The machine can't do that." His perspective emphasizes the irreplaceable human element in the creative process.
Concerns about the Merging of Art and Technology
He also expressed concerns about the impact of technology on art. "Technology makes art cold. Without being emotional, it cannot convey the full depth of human essence." Gallari believes that the human touch of lived experiences and emotional connection are crucial for art to truly resonate with viewers.
The Future of Traditional Galleries
Regarding the future of traditional galleries in the face of post - pandemic changes and digital alternatives, Gallari is optimistic. "In my opinion, art galleries will stay with us for a long time. Classics are classics! Because nothing can replace a live look at a painting. A place where you can come and get to know the works live, make new acquaintances, and experience emotions." His belief in the enduring value of traditional galleries showcases his appreciation for the tangible and immersive art experience.
Aspirations and Future Exploration
Gallari has big dreams for the future. "Maybe it will seem funny, but I would like to paint a picture in space on the ISS, or maybe there will be a new space station in the future. I really want to feel the emotions, coldness, and darkness of space." This unique aspiration highlights his adventurous spirit and desire to explore new frontiers in art.
Closing Thoughts
When asked about his vision for art display and audience experience, he said, "I would like art to surround people everywhere! When a person is driving on the highway, on the subway or walking in the park, when he goes to a restaurant on a date or on the way to the pharmacy. Because art can cheer you up, make you think about a topic, or even suggest a solution to an unresolved problem."
Finally, Gallari offers artistic wisdom with the phrase "Vita brevis, ars longa. Art forces us to be human and move towards a brighter future.”
