Despite the significance of Vladimir Yankilevsky in the hierarchy of modern art, it is not easy to submit his figure to any definite classification. In Triptych No. 14. Self-Portrait (Memory of the Artist’s Father), the artist introduces an assemblage similar to a round sculpture into the form of the triptych. As is always the case with the artist, this form-creative moment carries its own figurative onus. The «literary» interpretation — a breakthrough to new spiritual horizons — can be added in brackets. Yankilevsky’s three-dimensionality implies the complex dialectics of energy — time and unbroken concepts ensuring the process of form-creation (not necessarily ending with the «materialisation» of a concrete work and, in the artist’s unpredictable and inevitable case, recalling geological processes).
