Gutov Dmitry 10.12.1960 Dima Gutov is perhaps the best painter in the generation of my contemporaries. Unlike Zvezdik, Koshlyak, Vino-Dub, Kitup, and me, Gutov’s conceptual constituent is reduced to the minimum. He, like Natasha Turnova, goes in for painting. It’s funny that Gutov is an amateur but it’s the dilettantism that makes his works interesting. He, when painting a picture, faces the problems of the language of painting and solves them in each piece anew. We see what Dima fails to do, but he diligently carries on. He fails to become a skilled hand and paints pictures one after another. Almost each of his pieces is a result of chance and hard work. This makes his pictures so uncertain and accurate, complicated, touching, interesting, stupid. This is true painting.
