About the Item

"The Eternal Question" is a surrealist artwork created on cardboard using oil as the medium. It measures 92x61 cm, providing a substantial size to convey the artist's vision and intricate details. As a surrealist work, "The Eternal Question" invites viewers into a realm of imagination, symbolism, and dream-like elements. Juris Dimiters is among the most intellectual and witty artists of his generation. The characters of his works – paintings and posters – mostly are anthropomorphized fruits and objects. Placed within games of mutual interrelationships, they have become actors in the theater directed by the artist. These actors have always actively commented on one of three subjects – power, society and the everyday.
