"What do you see?" he asked. Often. The question was directed at our innermost being. Because what do we see? What do you see, and what do I see? Who are we? Do we truly know who we are? You and I? In this series, An open conversation with ..., I talk to people who, in various ways, have been affected by Hermann Talvik's highly personal and sensitive compositions. My hope is that, as a reader, you will feel invited to mentally take part in this conversation. That you will permit yourself to reflect, question and accept your own thoughts as well as my own - and ours. In this book, I meet my brother Kristian for a long conversation about our father and his art. Hermann Talvik (1906-1984) was a versatile artist, both in terms of techniques and subject matter. His painting runs from lyrical landscapes to spiritual compositions. His prints span the range from woodcuts and linocuts to drypoints and etchings. He was also the master of the monotype - a technique in which a single copy is made of the paint on a flat surface. Much of his art has its origins in experiences from a world beyond the physical one. The compositions are loaded with a complex symbolic language - sometimes the depiction of a violent event, sometimes an encounter in dazzling light - while others illustrate Biblical stories. He was reluctant to talk about his own vision and what lay behind his works. He preferred not even to name his artworks, as he felt this would get in the way of our personal interpretations. Interpretations that can be coloured by our unique experiences and which are linked to our own spiritual presence. What do you see?

Autorenporträt
Jag kommer från en familj där konst och litteratur tog stor plats. Själv var jag inget läsande barn. Det skulle visa sig att jag hade vissa dyslektiska problem. Mellan de uppslagna pärmarna var det tungt. Men att skriva, det var en helt annan sak. Där hade jag kontroll över bokstäverna och kunde smidigt placera dem där de bäst hörde hemma och i den takt jag fann det njutbart. Att skriva har alltid varit förknippat med lust och glädje. Sedan 1995 har jag utkommit med ett tiotal böcker för barn och ungdom, flera översatta till främmande språk. Mycket märklig känsla att försöka läsa en bok som man vet att man själv har skrivit ... men ändå inte ... Jag förvaltar konsten efter min far och skriver nu några böcker om honom och om hans konst. 2023 skrev jag biografin, "Hermann Talvik livet Konsten livet". Hösten 2024 kommer boken ut på engelska och våren 2026 även på estniska. Nu fördjupar jag mig i en serie där jag samtalar med människor som känner stort engagemang för Talviks konst. I den första boken är temat den personliga relationen till konstnären, temat för den kommande bok två är Bibeln och dess avtryck i hans konst.
