Moscow, autumn of 1953

Description

Surrealism is often perceived as a somewhat dark and gloomy world where we encounter something incomprehensible, extravagant, and sometimes even hostile and dangerous. In the works of Vitaly Glovatsky, however, the surreal takes on not only an optimistic but also a fairytale quality, making it applicable to the term "fantastical." His works are very interesting and beautiful, reminiscent of the long-forgotten steampunk style. This style is very beautiful and is distinguished by its uniqueness and a certain antiquity. Steampunk, in principle, is a style of mechanical contraptions, a kind of chaos, of things that operate without modern fuel, which so pollutes the environment. The author's works bear a strong resemblance to the style used in the new game Alice in Wonderland, which actively employs the steampunk aesthetic. Most likely, the author, like many before him, was trying to convey through his paintings society's need for cleansing the planet from harmful exhaust gases and unnecessary expenses.

Holovatsky Vitaliy

Description

to uncover...

Surrealist artist Vitaly Golovatsky was born in 1952. In 1989, he graduated from the Moscow State Academic Art School named after the year 1905. He worked in the field of graphic design for interiors. 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 artwork definitely includes a mix of surrealism, op-art (optical illusions in the style of Maurits Escher), a bit of symbolism, and retro-steampunk (in images of machines and constructions). The artist's works are presented in three groups of images, the first of which are Mauritz-Esher architectural motifs - references to the Dutch graphic artist. In Vitaly Golovatsky's works, motifs of not only Maurits Escher, but also clear traces of "Hunters in the Snow" by Peter Bruegel the Elder can be seen. The second group of works by V. Golovatsky is dedicated to architectural teapots. The third group of the artist's works is dedicated to fantastic means of transportation, executed in the steampunk style, and intended for movement on land, in water, and in the air.

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.V.
