Romāns Korovins’ “decisive moments”
Paraphrasing the simple truth expressed by Hannah Arendt in 1963 about the banality of evil, Romāns in his work materializes the idea, that even the most serious, most essential issues are actually banal, and that they manifest themselves not only in monumental symphonies and grand objects, but also in the most trivial, commonplace items and situations. Accepting the present situation and living conditions (after all he is not only an artist but also an employee and a dutiful family man), Romāns turns virtually everything, life presents to him, into material for art
