About Dr. Nadalian's Art

by Sibyll Kalff

when i first came across dr nadalian's art, i
immeadeatly fell in love with it. and this feeling
will never leave me.

i love the poetic concept of transfroming everday
reality into his very own artistic world full of
dreamstate-like realized visions of shere beauty!
every artwork of his is like a poem, a song, a dream
come true. i love his conceptual and spontaniously
improvised artworks and him realizing them worldwide
allover the planet.

where ever he is, you find (or don-t find - but maybe
know about) the traces of his inner journeys and
visions come to live their own life till the end of
time. i love his environmental philossophy, that wants
you to see and experience nature, human life and every
day life in a trancendet poesia of the moment.
his work can be seen as filmstills, as musical
compositions, a dance that exists only in the moment,
when performed... his work can be as understood
as zen buddhistic envisonments of the now - that lasts
or doesn't.

every work lives it-s own life from the moment on,
it-s created - and many of them are later only visible
for the human eye in a conserved form of his many
documentations, while already having transformed
themselves into being parts of the nature again,
where they derived from. a sculpture out of sand...
been blown away by the wind some hours later... a
carved stone at the ground of a river ... a painted
body ...

his landart is the incarnation of his environmental
philossophy, that shows the beauty and vulnerability
of nature and teaches respect for it and tries to
perpetuate the lineage of all philossophies that try
to tell human beings to treat their environment with
love and caring, not with an exploiting and
devastating destructive attitude.

dr nadalian is a multimedia artist in the most
wholistic sense, he uses all materials, techniques
and media that adequate his approach of "la poesia del
arte environmental" to the extreme. his works can be
compared to symphonies that praise the millenium old
and the new and combine all elements to a creation of
shere beauty and a feast for the eyes and all other
senses.

he is highly humaine and at the same time highly
political in his works, but he uses the unpoken,
implicit polical statements in his artworks in the
most sensitive way and no paroles.

his paradise art center must be the most wonderfull
place for international artists to come together and
work on their own and together - and for intercultural
understanding on the highest level. likewise the
international festivals he initiates for the sake of a
planet that "makes art - not war".
