On Friday 1 February at Daugavpils Mark Rothko Art Centre<\/a> will be opened contemporary art exhibition of sixteen artists in painting, photography, graphics, sculpture on the theme beautiful side of truth and the truthful side of beauty.<\/p>\n

Art is \u201cgenerally\u201d considered to be beautiful and \u201cusually\u201d that is reason why people are attracted to it. However, there is another side of art, which tells the truth. Here it is not necessarily beautiful, it might be critical, sarcastic, satirical, paradoxical, even ugly. Yet, truth, in itself, has a sense of beauty. In this international contemporary art exhibition, we try to show the beautiful side of truth and the truthful side of beauty.
\nThe truth (in Latin \u201cveritas\u201d) is the correspondence between a proposition and the reality to which this proposition refers. However, this definition of truth is not the only one, there are many definitions of the word and many classical controversies around the various theories of truth. \u201cTruth\u201d involves both the quality of \u201cfaithfulness, fidelity, loyalty, sincerity, veracity\u201d, and that of \u201cagreement with fact or reality\u201d. In a general sense, it stands against falsehood.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen John Keats was mesmerized by a Grecian Urn, in the end of his Ode, he wrote \u201cBeauty is Truth, Truth Beauty\u201d. We might arrogantly claim that the history of art is the history of depicting truth. In this sense, at first sight, considering Umberto Eco\u2019s essay \u201cOn Ugliness\u201d, we might disagree with Keats, because some scenes in art are not beautiful by a common viewer. But, on another level, truth in itself is beautiful, even if it depicts ugliness. Art freezes the moment of truth in the mind of the artist. The artist becomes a storyteller and a philosopher who tells a story or a piece of truth in the static immobility of art. Art is passed down through generations and centuries. It exists beyond temporality. Indeed, art endures the test of time or, better to say, it is free from time while being frozen in time.
\nWithout being involved with very complicated theories of truth and theories of beauty, in this exhibition, we try to show different faces of truth. Some artworks fill the viewer with passion and beauty and some depict the horrors of the 20th century in an artistic form.<\/p>\n
