To Lyuben Genov, the act of creativity is a test and opportunity to get immersed in a process through which he could provoke, reveal and enrich the multiple dimensions of his emotional/psychological and spiritual life. Prior to obtaining the tangibility of artistic flesh, these paintings were borne and experienced as thrill and excitement, as emotional and spiritual movement! Artistic achievement means free intuition and efficient self-control in a process where the movement of the plasticity modules, color intensity and its mastering, painting and tonal vibes are the projection of a cultivated/uncultivated reaction/experience. Paints trickle down, splashes are superimposed and boundaries get blurred, following their own inherent inner motion, and accumulate “biography”, before achieving their own independent and self-contained artistic existence.
