Often surrealism is perceived as a somewhat dark and gloomy world, where we encounter something incomprehensible, whimsical, and sometimes hostile and dangerous. But in the works of Vitaly Golovatsky, surrealism acquires not only an optimistic tone.The artist-surrealist Vitaliy Golovatsky was born in 1952. In 1989, he graduated from the Moscow Art School named after 1905. He worked in the field of graphic interior design. After 1995, he completely switched to easel painting. He constantly participates in exhibitions at the "Russian Cultural Center" gallery in Vienna.and the "Mobil-Art" gallery in London. The artist's works are in private collections in Russia, England, Austria, Germany, France, and other countries. Speaking of stylistic characteristics, his work definitely contains a mix of elements of surrealism, op art (optical illusions in the style of Maurits Escher), a little symbolism, and retro-steampunk (in images of machines and constructions). And, actually, I present the artist's work in the form of three groups of images, the first of which are Maurits Escher-inspired architectural motifs. And as an example, I will start with the work of Maurits Cornelis Escher (1898-1972) - a Dutch graphic artist.-2O article-image-with-viewer__caption" aria-hidden="true" >Maurits Cornelis Escher.
