About the Item

Painting as a tool to explore contemporary social and political issues, self described Pop Social Realist Tim Slowinski has created a body of work that can not and will not be ignored. A lover of the comic and absurd, his work presents messages with a humor that lends objectivity to both himself and the viewer. Completely self taught, he intentionally avoids all outside influence and works only from his imagination. He refuses to work from real objects because he believes, "every technique and style of painting has already been perfected, the only remaining frontier to be explored is the one inside the mind." In 1978 Slowinski inscribed on the wall of his studio what was to become the foundation of his all-encompassing philosophy of art and life. "Art is a way of life, a method of being, a way of perceiving the world." This philosophy is responsible for the development of SlowArt and The Slow Art Movement. It was this concept of art, not only as a process of creating objects, but as a way of life and perception that was to become the basis of SlowArt. Essentially, under this philosophy, the life process itself is a devotion to art, all life energy is directed and focused as an expression of art. In a SlowArt life, activity that appears unrelated to art is engaged only as a support structure for art. Art is not an occupation under SlowArt, it is a vocation and devotion. Much as a monk will engage in mundane activity such as farming or manufacturing to support the monastic devotion, the artist working under SlowArt will also perform such activities, but will do so only to the extent that it enables and supports a continuing devotion to art. In keeping with SlowArt principles, the viewing of art under Slow Art is a slow and meditative process. To properly view a work of art, it must be viewed and pondered over for a duration of time. Under Slow Art works of art are an expression of a devotional life process, they are not decorations or part of a social setting. "Financial meltdown, Global Warming, Toxic Foodstuffs, Religious Bombers: Times like these demand the truth, and i will paint it."
