Our Philosophy

Locura de Verdura is a community of contemporary artists. Each member of the community shares a common point of view about the place and essence of contemporary art. We are all working to present and explain our ideas to as many people as possible. In parallel with this, we strive to create high-quality art that would combine deep thoughts, comparative simplicity of creation and spectacular forms of embodiment.
Vision: To make contemporary art understandable.
Mission: To disseminate quality art and clear ideas that help to fully understand the work and draw conclusions.
Values: ⁃ Strive to create understandable works. ⁃ Strive to create high-quality art. ⁃ Strive for continuous improvement. ⁃ Spread understandable ideas. ⁃ To remain crazy artists, but within the moral limits of a person.

Contemporary art

Contemporary art is a complex concept. The first thing worth mentioning is that we believe that it is indisputably a stage of evolution. Contemporary art strives to learn the unprecedented depths of the analysis of the environment, as well as the analysis of the internal state of the individual. That is why it gives rise to constant experiments with forms and meanings, in the hope of reaching a new, interesting conclusions and showing the "spectators" unprecedented examples of the possibilities of human thought. Of course, it is very difficult to achieve what you want, to correctly combine the thought, the form of its embodiment, and even leave room for creation, which, when viewing the work, will generate new directions of thinking and analysis in people - this is a task beyond the control of many authors. Nevertheless, it is impossible to judge contemporary art based on a few works seen. Acquaintance with contemporary art is a long process of understanding the goals and essence of the modern stage of evolution in art. We hope that through our work and joint efforts we will be able to at least slightly popularize the ideas of contemporary art, show the whole bouquet of its diversity, and also convey new ideas to the general public.

High-quality art

We strive to create high-quality art. But what does this mean? Firstly, the artwork should bring aesthetic pleasure from its' observation. Secondly, the work should convey thoughts, and these ideas should not be deeply hidden inside of creation. The "spectator" must be able to recognize some ideas that lie on the surface, and also must be able to delve into the meaning of artwork and find more complex answers. Thirdly, art must be long-lasting. The longer the work can exist in the future, the better, the more people it can reach. So, we strive to combine these three characteristics. It is their combination that can produce high-quality artwork.

How to correctly observe art creation?

Viewing contemporary art is different from viewing, say, 18th-century French paintings. It combines not just the aspect of aesthetic satisfaction, but also the aspect of multilateral consideration of the details of the work to formulate further conclusions.

We have divided the process into three steps, and we recommend to follow them:

1. Just open the work and view it. First of all, you should pay attention to the feelings that arise during the first viewing. It can be fear, sadness, immense joy. Next, you should try to pay attention to the details and answer the question: what did the author want to convey?
2. After, it is worth opening the section with the name. Most likely, it will prompt new thoughts and advance the process of analyzing the work to a new level, bringing it closer to the original ideas of the author.
3. You can now open a short description. It will fit into the system of conclusions built at the previous stages and will help to look most deeply into the essence of the work.
Thus, a comprehensive analysis will be carried out, which will lead to a large number of conclusions. Such a process can take 1 minute or 30 minutes, but in any case, it will lead to a deeper analysis of the work, reveal its' interesting aspects, and bring pleasure from the thought process.
