Author: Garber-Maikovska, AaronMaikovska works across painting, drawing, performance and video – interconnected modes of communicating a vernacular of somatic expression - and is best known his bold abstract paintings of geometric forms and his drawings of galvanic linework. Using the artist’s own body as a catalyst for investigation, the works, produced between 2017 and 2023, are corporeal articulations yielded from a mantralike exercise in muscle memory. This first monograph includes essays and an interview. Cathleen Chaffee's essay explores performance and the body, and an essay by Jan Tumlir explores the depth and delight in Maikovska's paintings. Also included is an in-depth interview between the artist and Orit Gat - in an immersive exploration of his multifaceted practice.ISBN 9781941753675.
