Oleksiy Lytvynenko
Oil on canvas. 45 x 50 cm, 2023
The artist created a unique painting masterpiece literally on the Artifacts of War. But first, a bit of history – it all started when our heroic soldiers collected from the very heat of battle the lids of the transport and launch containers of the Ukrainian S-300 air defense systems, which are knocked out during the launch of a missile, and these lids became an unusual basis for real paintings. By the way, all the artifacts were directly used by our artillery soldiers during combat operations to protect the Ukrainian sky.
All funds raised through the sale of works during the exhibition and auction will go to support the military, who are regularly supported by the Cossack Drive charity foundation.
Oleksiy Lytvynenko. The minstrel of the living world nature around us. Taking nature as a model, Oleksiy Lytvynenko obviously strives to reproduce in his works the harmony of existence, which he feels so keenly. The artist’s painting system is in constant transformation, while remaining characteristic and individual. The themes of the paintings are landscape and water, plants and insects, fish and amphibians. Artist superimposes color layers one on top of the other, creating clear and poetic geometric shapes, conveying the ideas of Eastern philosophy in the language of sophisticated coloristics.
