Dakarela Stankovic
Dakarela Stankovic: The Architecture of MovementDakarela Stankovic is an artist whose work doesn't simply represent the world; it captures it in its state of perpetual flux. Born in 1965 in Yugoslavia and now based in Marseille, Stankovic honed his vision through the academies of Niš, Belgrade, and Milan. His international background infuses his painting, which transcends geographical boundaries to explore inner and social landscapes.A Philosophy of EngagementFor Stankovic, the act of painting is an existential necessity. He defines his approach through a threefold resonance:"I am movement, and I am my state as well as the state of society."His canvases thus become emotional seismographs. The artist never separates his own psyche from the agitation of the collective world; he uses the canvas as a space of collision where social chaos meets the truth of the intimate moment. The Creative Process: From Matter to LightFar from purely spontaneous abstraction, Stankovic's work follows a rigorous technical protocol that gives his pieces their characteristic structural depth:The Construction of the Surface: It all begins with broad strokes of color that build what he calls the "tertiary surface." This is no longer a background, but a topography of matter, a sculptural base that gives substance to the composition.The Dominant Blue: Once this architecture is dry, the artist establishes blue as the central axis. This pivotal color serves as the spiritual and spatial foundation of the work.The Chromatic Alchemy: On this base, Stankovic develops a complex interplay of warm and cool pastels. This stage brings the luminous vibration, creating a tension between the density of the matter and the lightness of the color.The Verdict of the Contour: The work concludes with a dynamic contour drawing. This final outline defines and solidifies the abstraction, transforming raw energy into an organized and legible structure.International RecognitionToday, Dakarela Stankovic's works reside in prestigious collections, from the National Museum of Serbia to private collections in Piacenza, Italy (notably the Scalabrini Monastery collection). Through his exhibitions, he continues to offer a vision of the world where color and form are the only languages capable of conveying the urgency of our time.He is an honorary member of the United Nations Academy of Arts for the 2022/23 academic year.
