Russian-born Painter Dmitry Sostakovich to Exhibit in New York

Dmitry Sostakovich’s brilliant oil on canvas works explore the artist’s inner worlds and the spiritual realm of objects, landscape and people. Pregnant with swirling, meandering lines, and swirls and slashes of vibrant pigment, the work soars on its own accord into visual harmony and balance. Intimate and deep, chaotic and pure, each painting conjures up the subtle essence of our humanity and the primal longings of the soul by which we thrive cross-culturally. Interested in the topics of space and time, Sostakovich’s frenetic compositions probe the psycho-physiological territories of emotionality, impression, reflection and contemplation with a deep, expressive force which characterizes what the artist terms “Analytical Linear Expressionism.” Inspired by his own early appreciation for crystals and nature, Sostakovich also cites the extended period in which he lived independently in Italy as having had a profound and definitive influence on his current work and creative life view.

About the Exhibition

In Evolving Abstraction, these artists reflect the beauty and complexity of the world they see through taking a step back and portraying them through the lens of artistic vision rather than with representational accuracy. Often experimental, the works are innovative in their quest to find the best tools and techniques to convey the idea that exists in the artist's mind and share it with an audience hungry for a fresh perspective on what they see every day.
