Exhibition of Evgeny Shapovalov Automatic translate

On May 26, the “Manufactura” art gallery presents a personal exhibition of the Chernihiv artist Evgeny Shapovalov entitled “Anthropogenesis: sources, subject, body”.

Anthropogenesis literally means the emergence and development (genesis) of man (anthropos) in a broad sense. In the context of art and this exhibition - this is the evolution of mankind in the manifestations of its ancient cultures, works, objects and the display of the people themselves without any exaggeration.

While searching for his own style, using the original technique, the author notes unexpected decisions. In his works, interesting thoughts can be traced about everyday things, and centuries-old stories are revealed against a modern background. Eroticism in his paintings is a special look at a woman, an attempt to look into the secret world of her desires and instincts.

In the works of art by a young artist there is always room for a bold experiment. He is critical of his work, receptive to advice and open to everything new that appears at the junction of different approaches, styles and directions. The painter combines the incongruous, mixes various techniques: pastel and oil, graphics and easel painting, easily changes genres, moving from still life to landscape, from nudity to portrait.

The artist respects the classics he studied in: “This is the best school for the artist. I made copies, trying to understand the technique of the masters. In the learning process came an understanding of what I would do. With what I come to art, what trace I leave - you can’t do painting and not ask yourself such questions. ”

Evgeny Shapovalov was born in 1986 in the city of Simferopol. Member of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine, a repeated participant in regional and all-Ukrainian exhibitions and international projects. Winner of the All-Ukrainian open-air “Best Artist” (Vinnitsa, 2017).

You can be inspired by the paintings of a young artist in the art gallery "Manufactory" until July 20, 2018.
