Independent creative work is always an important deed. His paintings reflect a mixture of cultures - his background - but avoid any superficial veneer of Contemporary Internationalism, his paintings could possibly be more accurately described as Contemporary Folk. In our strange and mad World his characters seem to be entitled to keep an enigmatic silence, answering their predestination to serve the fragile beauty. Gobovov’s pictures are united by their semantic nature, the importance of signs, the presence of the inner implication.
The artist combines usual devices with considerably renovated “technologies” of representation. Temptation and mystery, the mixture of austerity and indifference, of eternity and secrecy are reflected in his pictures.
