Artwork Description

Mykola Kryvenko (1950) is a Ukrainian artist, graphic designer, and master of bronze and wood figurative sculpture. Studying with the artist Hryhoriy Havrylenko in the 1970s and 1980s greatly influenced the formation of Krivenko's style. In the mid-1990s, he joined the Kyiv group of abstract painters, "Picturesque Reserve". Mykola Krivenko's style is often characterized as minimalistic. First, this concerns his ascetic palette in painting: pastel, natural tones, and sometimes wholly monochrome pieces. The author calls his art intuitive abstraction, where the idea, the inner state, and the source on which the method, composition, and color work are in the first place. 

In the work "Water and Stones", the author immerses us in the space of his primary source of inspiration, where the element of water pulsates, lives, and moves. The forms and colors that Kryvenko reproduces here are more expressive, brighter, and clearer than in most of his works. He still shapes the painting world abstractly, but thanks to the minimal clarity of the images, he creates a feeling of direct contact with the living and interaction with nature, which disturbs, confuses, and fascinates the author.
