LOT 35 War memorabilia.Madonna in Kyiv. Acrylic, Andrii Dudchenko

35 х 34cm, painted in 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.
Andrii Dudchenko. Andriy was born in Yevpatoria, studied there, now lives and works in Kyiv. He conducts active exhibition activities, but he also had time to paint several Kyiv churches (Assumption Cathedral). The Renaissance plot in modernist implementation is one of the favorite techniques of the artist who strives to make the perfect image.
Dudchenko expands the gallery of faceless images, adding the issue of gender and space-time identification, without which the acquisition of one’s own “face” is impossible.
