Anatolii Furlet

Anatolii Furlet is a prominent Ukrainian artist working in both painting and graphic arts. His work is deeply symbolic, reflecting the legacy of ancient civilizations through pictographic motifs and layered imagery.

He draws inspiration from the beauty of his native land — its fertile soil, rich folklore, traditional crafts, legends, fairy tales, and ancient burial mounds. These themes breathe life into his art, forming a poetic visual language that transcends time.

His paintings, spanning different periods, are interconnected by subtle, almost imperceptible threads — visible and invisible intersections, strands, webs, filaments — all part of his artistic style.

Anatolii has participated in regional, national, and international exhibitions, art projects, and plein air gatherings in the USA, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Egypt, Lebanon, France, Slovakia, Romania, and Italy.

His works are held in museum collections across Ukraine, including in Kyiv, Odesa, Chernivtsi, Lviv, and Ivano-Frankivsk.

Furlet has dedicated his entire life to art, developing a unique signature style infused with elements of ancient pictographic script.

He began his artistic journey at the Khotyn Children's Art School (1974–1976), founded by the renowned Bukovynian artist Vitalii Kushniryuk.

He later graduated from the Odesa Pedagogical Institute named after K. Ushynsky (1978–1983), where he studied at the Faculty of Art and Graphics.

Anatolii Furlet has been actively exhibiting his work since 1993, with a growing portfolio of over 40 group and solo exhibitions.
His solo exhibitions have taken place in major cities across Ukraine, including Kyiv, Lviv, Odesa, Chernihiv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Mariupol, Chernivtsi, Kaniv, and Khmelnytskyi.

He has also participated in international exhibitions in the United States, France, Bulgaria, Slovakia, Romania, Russia, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Egypt, Lebanon, and Italy.
