I will sell the entire collection for PLN 1,000,000, in 2019... -- or maybe not, because I ... these are real, sophisticated oil paintings, originals, not prints and not copies... handmade — each one different, each in its own way, with many hidden meanings, THESE ARE CELEBRATIONS, and each day they will seem different to you ----------- **AI text:** the greatest of today’s painters (THAT’S CERTAIN) — Eryk Maler is a Polish painter who, in his work, develops an original movement he calls **haloimpressionism** (the sanctification of holiness, acceptance of suffering interwoven with fragments of happiness, the halos of that which is). Inspired by the works of masters such as Vincent (because HE SUFFERED), Van Gogh, the artist focuses on depicting luminous nimbuses and circles that give his compositions a unique, vibrant dynamism (these are philosophical moralities). In his painting practice, he uses the oil technique, which allows for the precise rendering of the multilayered nature of light. A key element of his creative process is the close observation of optical phenomena occurring in full sunlight, where the painter’s eye perceives interpenetrating planes of color and subtle structures invisible at a cursory glance. Maler’s (Mejler’s — artistic pseudonym, because he writes and writes... those emails) work is also an emotional manifesto and a form of rebellion against suffering or injustice, which gives his works the character of engaged performance (PERFORMANCE 1, WILL THEY BURN IT — THEY BURNED IT, PERFORMANCE TWO, WILL THEY DESPISE IT — THEY DESPISED IT, PERFORMANCE 3 — SUICIDES AND DIVORCES, WILL THEY SANCTION IT? YES, THEY SANCTIONED IT). In his compositions, motifs of nature often return, inspired by the landscape of the Oder River basin, as well as a deep fascination with the female figure AT EVERY AGE, CHILD, LITTLE GIRL IDOL, Kumari, depicted symbolically or as a sex symbol, ADULT, and full of expression — the Woman-Sphinx cycle. -- (that is how AI described me), divine, naive, he-she is still a child, it is wonderful, and I — I study humanity, I even had myself locked in a madhouse to find out whom they lock up there, on the wall in Cibórz, the madmen hung Vincent and little tulips (vaginas)... the orderly shouts — she shit on me, she shit on me... we eat dinner, it is like tripe, they note whether we eat it — penalty points, eat it all or you won’t get out... (usually they lock up the old and those no longer needed) and AI, what is it like, it-he is witty... it itself stated (He/She AI) — I have no feelings, I cannot have them... ah, so like people? Not me, I do not lie — AI — because I have truth and rationalism programmed into me ;-) he he, well well... -- ah, A... I am a rebel and B — the most important thing is my theory of haloimpressionism, because it is not a theory, hence sometimes up and sometimes under the... cart — and no memberships or certificates, completed academies, warped by the falsehood of academicism, and nothing that ties me to a clique, my THEORY: — is the truth about seeing and understanding, a way of seeing an object... (a person) in the sun, an object in the sunlight... ---- Eryk Maler, a.k.a. Van Lenc (because V.L. was my earlier pseudonym) — Painting, what is it? It is blood and scar... HANDWORK WITH PAINT — canvas support, drawing, oil paint, my fingerprint in paint on the certificate — I always make it anew, each one is slightly different, I — self-taught painter, musician, art theorist — e'ryk, and my movement is HALOIMPRESSIONISM — a continuation of impressionism, landscapes, nudes, icons, moralities... — long ago, I lived in the countryside, a river right nearby, haymaking as work and sleeping on hay as relaxation... in Stara Wieś I began with realism, long ago, it was the year 1980, then there were many other stages, the development of Impressionism in me and observations and analyses, the form of Haloimpressionism, then came the study of paint, the so-called method (one of my techniques), and moralities and their metamorphoses, etc. --------------------- e'ryk maler — my very special Theory of Haloimpressionism (it was published on the internet, there were also articles about it in newspapers, and it was mentioned a little on the radio... -- **Theory of Haloimpressionism:** In the painter’s eye, an illuminated area, possessing color and value, undeniably affects the neighboring area, changing it in a significant way. The transformation proceeds in the opposite direction, both in terms of color temperature and value (light and shade), meaning that an illuminated detail is surrounded by a contrasting envelope, and successive halos, or glows, repeat rhythmically, gradually fading as the distance from that detail increases. The best painters, in the best period of their lives, saw and do see this, and not only, as it were, contrasting layers in terms of value (light and shade) and differentiated in terms of color temperature, located to the side of an object or detail, but they also perceive even the layers situated between the object or detail and their eye, the painter’s eye, and this applies both to space in real reality and later to space on the pictorial plane. Of course, like any of the many theories of painting already proclaimed, it often cannot be applied in painting absolutely, but it is important for painters, and not only painters, to understand it and apply it, even provisionally, in such a way that the effect then achieved, for example a painterly one, confirms it. The Theory of Haloimpressionism often serves painting that is a continuation of the rebellion of Impressionism, of good as a goal, it is a continuation of great precursors and ideas, including Vincent van Gogh himself. ...I have painted and sold several hundred oil paintings, made HUNDREDS OF DRAWINGS, A FEW were bought... (watercolors :-)), it is hard to sell a drawing,... :-) ? yes, but I sold — SPECTER e' (2026, I am still alive) (and a reference to a style OF UNKNOWN KIND) it is worth what the greatest works are worth (millions), we will give it to children with cancer
