The naïve curlicues of Oleg Ustinov’s painting series twirl around the logos of the protective paper, stripped from the back of large advertising stickers, on which they were made. They are somehow childish (with too many colours, as if a whole box of crayons had to be used), but they fail to disappoint. Perhaps the ‘intelligent dance music’ from the 1990s that plays in Ustinov’s studio is still pumping through them. (AK)
