Seva Galkin’s works, varied as they might be, all have one
distinctive feature, and I can’t even say I find it so absolutely
attractive – it is a tendency for “the purity of style”, as a
critic wrote in a review of his exhibition. Purity can turn into
sterility, when style is actually lost, giving way to either
commonplace ornamentality, or excessive simplicity. However,
purity can as well be associated with innocence, even virginity of
sorts, which, I admit, sounds strange if naked blokes are
concerned. Seva photographs nude males. A naked body does not
necessarily look erotic or beautiful, nor is it always able to. On
the contrary, nakedness often conflicts with the environment.
Sometimes an artist emphasizes this controversy, sometimes tries
to ignore it.
