Ukrainian artist Zakhar Shevchuk, born in 1992, brings forth a compelling portrait infused with avant-garde echoes, amalgamating realistic portrayals with abstract elements reminiscent of suprematism and modernism. Shevchuk, a respected draftsman and painter, masterfully distills forms until their quintessence remains, encapsulating his reflections and feelings into the canvas, oscillating between abstract and figurative art. The piece engulfs the observer in a solemn mood, depicting a man's head and neck with a classical realism that juxtaposes with the minimalistic, predominantly black background. Subtle geometric shapes, a yellow triangle, and a fragment of a blue shape manifest behind the man, reminiscent of the works of Kazimir Malevich, adding an eclectic layer of meaning. The interplay of realistic hues of human flesh against the profound black imbues the painting with a dramatic effect, amplified by a transparent enamel, enhancing the color's depth and introducing a glossy facet to the background. This painting, a fusion of expressive brushwork and stylistic experimentation, exemplifies Shevchuk’s exploration of viewer perception and his departure from academic realism towards a style perched on the edge between abstraction and figuration. The bold yet precise brushwork on the man’s head aligns with Shevchuk’s later expressionist creations, hinting at his evolving artistic journey. A holder of a Master's degree in arts from the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture, Kyiv, Ukraine, Shevchuk continues to enrich the art realm with his monumental installations, murals, and captivating pieces, with his works residing in numerous public and private collections globally. This particular piece, a beacon of Shevchuk’s early explorations, mirrors the transformative vibes of early 20th-century avant-garde movements, serving as a cultural and historical echo in the contemporary art landscape.

Art, to me, is a profound exploration of the world that surrounds us - a journey of discovery, experience, and self-understanding. It is a medium through which I unravel the essence of things - their colors, forms, and the interplay between them. I believe in the power of simplicity, in the art of removing the excess and uncovering the necessary, much like a sculptor chisels away at stone. In my paintings, I strive to distill forms to their purest essence, reaching a point where nothing else can be removed without sacrificing meaning. The "necessary" elements, as I perceive them, remain, serving as conduits for my impressions and self-reflections on the subject at hand. My aim is not to depict something specific but rather to transfer the emotions and thoughts evoked by the object onto the canvas. I seek artistic forms that can boldly and vividly capture the essence of these feelings, rather than mere visual representation. In this pursuit, my work often exists on the precipice between figurative and abstract art - place where emotions take precedence over strict visual interpretation. Through my art, I invite viewers to embark on their own contemplative journeys, to interpret the subtleties and engage with the interplay of emotions and forms. Each brushstroke carries the weight of my perceptions, inviting you to join me in this exploration of the human experience. zakhar@klossart.com
