Beschreibung

A beautiful art book presenting the art of Beny Tchaicovsky, a pioneer in 3D computer animation. This hardcover collection explores Tchaikovsky's awardwinning computer graphics as well as his otherworldly, surrealist paintings. Although his life was tragically cut short, one could not ask for a more complete and perfect catalogue raisonne of Tchaicovsky's works than this stunning compilation. Through interviews and tributes in the book, one gains a true sense of the man and his explorations of consciousness. Includes paintings and stills from his CG work, as well as QR-code links to clips of his videos, Beyond Duality is a tribute to an inordinately talented and fecund artist whose work deserves much wider recognition.

Autor

Multimedia artist Beny Tchaicovsky (1954-2009) was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, a child of Russian and Polish immigrants. Tchaicovsky was a painter, musician, award winning computer artist, a visionary and a traveler. His art has been categorized as Surrealism or Fantastic Realism. Beny resisted labels but when pressed in a 1988 interview, he termed his style as Esoteric Realism in which he explained creativity is used as a tool for self exploration and has a critical role to play in helping to raise humanity consciousness. Aside from a strong metaphysical aspect, much of his work is a critique to a globalized economic system based in consumerism and war. Tchaicovsky was one of the pioneer artists who contributed to the birth of the new technology of 3D animation as an art form in the early 1990's. He understood early on the relevance of this new technology and self-taught its software to use as a tool for his creative expression. Tchaicovsky's work has been seen on music albums, magazine covers, billboards, DVD's and it has been displayed in exhibitions worldwide.
