Yesterday we popped into a few galleries to see what’s on.  The first on the way was Fine Art Kiev on 12 Velyka Zhytomyrska.  The exhibition by Ms. Kin’ called “My beautiful friends” was the lest artistic, looks like  average studio photographs, except for the pregnant girl - that one glows.

Next stop - Gallery 36 (36 Andriyivsky descent). That one holds a well-advertised exhibit called Unconscious by Oleksandr Milovzorov.  This paintings were just the associative splashes of color, he could have simply framed and hanged up his palettes on the walls. They demonstrate his great sence of color though.

Triptyсh Gallery down the street currently holds an exhibit by Oleksiy Appolonov.  I really liked two or three of his landscapes, very to-the-point massive brush strokes and perfect combination of color.  His art would be good to live with in your apartment. Tryptyh generally specializes in sellable art, for that reason they prefer not to let people snap pictures unlike in other exhibition spaces.  Therefore you can’t see very clearly on this pic anything but the gallery puts out the artwork online.  The rest of the exhibit looked like the artist did them all on the night before the opening.

Atelier Karas presented an interesting collective show Happy L’end by Oleksandr Matviyeno,  Marsel Onishko, Robert Saller, Andriy Stegura, Vadim Kharabaruk and Nataliya Shevchenko. I really loved these:
