"There is something uncannily familiar about Taurus Polataiko?s recent Cuts, his exquisite trompe l?oeil visitations of Lucio Fontana's most famous spatial conceptions. Although Polataiko?s images closely resemble those of his Italian mentor, they stay on the surface, whereas Fontana?s various attese penetrated the monochrome skin and touched a deeper space reality. ? Polataiko is haunted by the ghosts of past artists. We have to be precise about this. The notion of haunting carries two main meanings: to frequent a place habitually and to be visited by disembodied spirits, who by definition show themselves to the living. Polataiko?s work haunts the places his ghosts have been. He is haunted by fellow Ukrainian Kazimir Malevich?s suprematism and, in his Glare paintings from the mid 1990s, in turn haunts this style?s utopian aspiration with an infection of surface glare. ? In work-in-progress, too, Polataiko seeks to exorcise his sense of being possessed by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, whose practices engendered the term masochism, and Dracula. Even in this bracing company, Fontana has the strongest hold on him." ? Mark Cheetham.
