Vitalii Bondarenko

I was born in 1968 in Kyiv, Ukraine. I am living there now. As an artist, I work in different genres, formats, and sizes. The highlights of my artworks are marked textures and mild color schemes. You can feel the softness and lightness of the works thanks to the lack of contrast. There are realistic, decorative and abstract works. Subjects of works are various diverse: from the natural and urban landscapes to the female portraits. The diversity of my approaches allowed me to work at the Bureau of Architecture under the President of Ukraine. Especially noteworthy is the fact that I made a few designs of tapestries for the Ukrainian Presidential Administration jointly with colleagues. Also, I got orders to create the historical paintings for the Ministry of Culture of the North Macedonia and Museum of Macedonia. Some of my works are kept at funds of the National Academy of Visual Arts and Architecture of Ukraine, private collections and galleries worldwide.
