Il realismo fotografico dello stile pittorico di Sergei Aparin,
da concretezza al sensazionale mondo visionario Neo-Surrealista.
Nei suoi dipinti il senso di morte e l'angoscia dello spazio-tempo
sono sospesi in una sorta di frammentazione di tele come meteore,
nella rappresentazione di un passaggio, cambiamento
e trasformazione dell'unica immagine originale, quella mentale.
Aparin come Dalì, diviene "Classico" nell'ispirarsi
alla pittura Rinascimentale, pur rimanendo sulle tracce
dell'inconscio irrazionale caro alla pittura Surrealista.

"Custode del Tempo", "Imperatore dell'Immaginario",
è incoronato da due teste d'ariete poggiate sullo schienale
di un trono di cristallo, illuminato da una fonte di luce invisibile.

Là siede Sergei, controllando ogni flusso irrazionale nell'elaborazione
e raffigurazione cosciente del suo realismo fotografico di un inquietante
concretezza visionaria, in una manifestazione pittorica
di dominio dello spirito sulla natura.
"Signore del Tempo", mentre del suo regno è l'eco del Cucù!

(Presentazione di Mauro Nobilini 30 gennaio 2006)

The photographic realism of Sergei Aparin’s pictorial style, makes the sensational and visionary
Neo-Surrealist world concrete.

In his paintings the sense of death and the feeling of anguishby space and time are suspended in a sort
of fragmentation, where paintings become meteors, depicting a shifting, a change and a transformation
of the only original and ultimate image, the one created by the mind.

As Dalì before him, Aparin becomes Classical, finding his inspiration in Renaissance painting,
although he never loses track of the irrational subconscious’ sings, held dear by the Surrealist painting.

“Keeper of Time”, “Emperor of the Imaginary”, he is crowned by two ram heads laid on top
of a crystal throne, lit up by an invisible source of light.
There seats Sergei,
taking control over irrational flux in the conscious elaboration and representation of his unsettling, concrete and yet visionary photographic realism,
in a pictorial manifestation the spirit dominion on the nature.
“Guardian of Time”, belonging to his realm is the cuckoo' s echo.
