Art within people

Welcome to our blog on contemporary Ukrainian art! We will show you amazing people who create it: painters, sculptors, gallery owners, collectors and art-managers. Their stories — it’s the true face of art, the reverse side of what we see at the exhibitions and galleries. We will visit the studios, reveal the secrets of canvases and make art closer, i.e. clearer and more familiar.

A few words about our team. Not long ago I was studying, working and creating art in New York, as well as Igor — in London. This is when we started thinking of elucidating creative processes in our homeland. Back in Kyiv, we began making a blog on contemporary Ukrainian art.

I received my education at Sotheby’s Institute of Art. Later I worked as a director at «Triptych» gallery in Kyiv. Now I’m engaged in my own art-projects. Igor graduated from Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv.
