“ Noah ” 105/91 sм.

Creator of an extraordinary figurative world, Miloushev managed to maintain a high level of its enigmatic characters over the years. Their individuality consists of specific line features that one can easily accept and they are hard to be forgotten. Humanist by heart, Miloushev does not judge, he does not reprimand, he forgives. The soft, rounded simplicity of the figural distortion shows a clean child's sensitivityof the artist who moves delicately the pastel brilliance in a small, but perfectly serviced space.

The characters are usually naked and it is amazing how it is not the first thing that one mentions. On the contrary - one takes their nakedness for naturalness. A highly distinguished characteristic of the artist's painting are the faces of his characters.The special eyes are immediately stood out. Large, pure white, with a dash in the middle, they are like wells (bottomless or emptied) that makes you feel anxious and what is more they have unusual beauty which is not easy to be perceived. The eyesare empty and fascinating at the same time. He often uses ideas for the Bible and its painting messages are very human, very simple and at the same time certainly enigmatic. The selected characters sink or pulse on the dark, blue - grey orsometimes reddish backgrounds. They look at us mysteriously with their empty, butwizard-like eyes. They breathe in quality in their intimate world. They pose us nudeand natural as true children of God. And that is how the art of Ivan Miloushevreaches its enigmatic done in a master way.
