About The Artwork

The oath of King Menelaus. After the abduction of beautiful Elena by Paris, her distraught husband Menelaus, King of Sparta, vowed to return her at all costs , destroying Troy and killing all its inhabitans. This was the beginning of the long , grueling Trojan war, the sad end of which was predicted by the prophetess Cassandra. I drew her terracotta Hellinistic head in the right part of my work. On the left is the characteristic gesture of Menelaus' oath-offering on a dagger. In the center of the work is a cow's skull and a fragment of ancient Greek relief depicting scene from Trojan life . They convey the atmosphere of peace and kindness of this ancient city. The Crescent moon above Cassandra's head emphasizes that it was during the moon that she fell into clairvoyance.

I was born in 1957 and attended the Moscow Academy of Fine Arts from 1978 to 1983. In the eighties I began working as a professional painter and artist and participated in collective exhibitions of national importance. I continued working in my own laboratory while exposing my paintings in personal and in collective shows such as in the Moscow galleries “Kusnezkiy Most”, “Galleria 91”, “Maneggio”, “Galleria Arbat” and the “Snutti Gallery” of Paris. Since 2000, I created oil and acrylic paintings and graphic art, thus participating in the art exhibition-trade at Milan,the “International Modern and Contemporary Art Fair MIART 2000” and in the theme gathering “Art Thoughts” in the “Scoglio di Quarto” Gallery of Milan and in other shows in the galleries and in the exposition centers of Milan, Turin, Arezzo and Rome. Many of my paintings are property of the Russian Painters Union,of the Moscow Painters Union,of the “Muscovite Canvas” Gallery, of “La Prima” , of the “Scoglio di Quarto”, “Spazio Immagine” and “Segreto di Bocca” of Milan, as also,of various private collections in Russia, France, USA, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Spain, Canada, Holland and Belgium.
