The biography of Juri Jakovenko reflects the historic peculiarities of its time dynamism, mobility, communicativeness and at the same time devotion to the native land. He was born in 1965 in Russia, grew up in Belarusian Grodna, studied in Minsk and then returned to Grodna to live and to work. Not being originally Belarusian he became one by character, world outlook, spirit and always emphasized his belonging to Belarusian culture.
Choosing a profession was not an issue for Jakovenko, as the atmosphere of creative work was always present in his family: great grandfather, grandfather, father were fond of drawing. Creative energy accumulated with generations was fully expressed in Juri. When he was fourteen he knew exactly that art was precisely graphics for him. Juri graduated from Belarusian Academy of Arts. This education was classical, it consciously formed the future artist, made the basis of professionalism, helped to express individuality. The first exhibition in 1988 when the works of the student were presented on the republican level can be considered the beginning of creative biography of Jakovenko.
Artistic distinctiveness of this artist was formed gradually: the problem of individuality for him is a problem of creative growth, continuous search and coming over oneself. Having tried different graphic materials and techniques the artist had chosen for himself very laborious techniques etching, mezzotint and aquatint.
Juri Jakovenko is a very intellectual and sophisticated artist. He likes to create series of gravures united with personally significant topics: « Archipelago », « Signs », « Alchemy », « Runes ». He is attracted by the past where he searches for values harmonic to his world vision. Various historic cultural phenomena appearances of different cultures, epochs and civilizations trigger creating reflections of personal ideas. The artist firmly combines cultural signs, symbols and myths and creates his own world through his own perception.
Different artistic traditions are found in creative work of jakovenko which makes it difficult to refer him to a definite trend of contemporary art. His work is related to European medieval miniature and Bosch mystics, surrealism and symbolism, national traditions of Sarmatian portrait and historicism. The easiest way is to relate his work to postmodernism, though this unified notion doesn’t really reflect its essence. The artist is so original that for now it is impossible to find the right definition. Combining the best national and European cultural traditions the graphics of Juri Jakovenko creates the image of contemporary Belarusian art.

Beautiful paintings Brian Viveros
Beautiful paintings Brian Viveros.
A technical perfectionist, Brian Viveros’ oil, airbrush, acrylic, and ink paintings are highly saturated with pigment, luminosity, and depth, while the compositions are poignant and simple. The artist’s emphasis tends to be on focal points such as the eyes, lips, and skin, conveying the subtlety of minute expression and the power of an impaling gaze. The paintings feel cinematic, like haunting stills from a film, owing to their evocative suggestion of narrative and to the iconicity of their subjects. The artist’s creative cosmos is beautifully stylized, never derivative, and distinctly recognizable as his own.

Godiva de John Collier
Ca fait un moment que je lorgne sur ce tableau,
pour tout l’abandon et toute la beauté qui s’en dégage : Godiva (1898) de John Collier…
Godiva, ou plus correctement Godgifu, est une dame anglo-saxonne du XIe siècle, épouse du comte Léofric de Mercie. Sa vie est mal connue. Son nom est associé à une légende apparue plus d’un siècle après sa mort, selon laquelle elle aurait traversé les rues de Coventry à cheval, entièrement nue, afin de convaincre son époux de diminuer les impôts qu’il prélevait sur ses habitants. Bien que dépourvue de tout fondement historique, la chevauchée de Lady Godiva a inspiré de nombreux artistes.
Une des variantes de la légende veut que les habitants de Coventry, pour montrer leur reconnaissance envers leur Dame, se soient tous enfermés chez eux pendant son passage. Seul un curieux, nommé Tom, aurait osé enfreindre la consigne et aurait jeté un coup d’œil à la dérobée ; mais en punition, il devint sur-le-champ aveugle. C’est de là que vient l’expression anglaise « Peeping Tom », très souvent remplacée dans la langue actuelle par le français « voyeur ». Selon certaines sources, cette légende serait née en 1586 : on aurait demandé au peintre Adam van Noort de représenter l’épisode et il aurait montré Léofric en train de regarder sa femme par la fenêtre pour constater qu’elle exécutait effectivement sa promesse. Le public aurait mal interprété ce détail, prenant le comte pour un simple indiscret. (selon wikipedia.)

Corsets, prothèses et robes colorées de Frida Kahlo
Corsets, prothèses et robes colorées de Frida Kahlo, plus connue pour ses peintures surréalistes.
L’exposition de ses vêtements, des accessoires orthopédiques et même des prothèses sont affichés à l’intérieur de son ancienne maison à Mexico et y présente également des creations – comme celles de Jean Paul Gaultier ou Givenchy – inspirés par l’artiste.
Sous ses robes longues, Kahlo cachait un corps qui avait été déformé par la polio dès l’enfance (la maladie retardant la croissance de sa jambe droite.), et elle a survécu alors qu’elle avait 18 ans à un terrible accident de bus.
Un tube métallique a perçé son abdomen lors de la collision, la soumettant à des opérations douloureuses et à de longues périodes de repos au lit tout au long de sa vie. Sa jambe droite fût amputée en 1953, un an avant sa mort.

Beautiful / Tom Bagshaw.
Based in the Georgian city of Bath, England, Tom Bagshaw works as an illustrator under the moniker Mostlywanted and is represented by Central Illustration Agency. His commercial work is commissioned worldwide for a wide range of clients, Saatchi & Saatchi, Sony, the BBC, GQ and Scholastic to name a few.
For his personal work he has developed a highly rendered digital painting style through which he explores themes of fantasy, beauty and mysticism. While is work deals with imaginative content, it also aims for a strong level of realism in its presentation. Although feminine beauty plays a large role in his work, the women he depicts are never frail damsels in distress. More often than not they’re strong, intriguing characters, with an air of mystery to them.

Surrealistic Fine Art by Piia Lehti
Surrealistic Fine Art by Piia Lehti uses mainly different intaglio printing techniques. Her motifs come from a world where the reality overlaps with dreams. People have often changed roles with animals, and their surrealistic environment is full of surprises. The cosiness of Lehtis prints originates from the slightly shabby lines and landscapes, which are comfortably worn out. The pictures reflect the life experienced and lived in different corners of the world. (Finlande)

Surrealistic Fine Art by Piia Lehti, elle utilise principalement des techniques d’impressions mixtes. Son univers revele un monde où la réalité se superpose aux rêves. Les gens se changent en animaux de maniere symboliques et surréalistes, d’une grande finesse où le lien avec la nature est omniprésente. J’aime vraiment l’ambiance et le traitement de ses créations.

Portraits de Lita Cabellut
Portraits de Lita Cabellut «Je veux forcer les gens à regarder les gens, ils sont des figures caractéristiques puissantes. Je travaille l’expressionnisme, mais j’ai développé mon propre style. C’est une sorte de techniques de collage, combinée à l’huile. C’est une fresque. C’est la force avec laquelle vous peignez, comment vous utilisez de la peinture sur la toile, le toucher. Tout ceci est une combinaison de philosophie et de physique. »
///
The Spanish Lita Cabellut was born on 1961 in Barcelona, where she grew up in a poor Gypsy-environment.
Her work is closely intertwined with the memories of the old area of Barcelona, El Raval, with closeness to the docks, La Bocquerai market, Las Ramblas and Sant Antonie market, replete with pickpockets, street performers and of course, prostitutes.
After 13 years of street and orphan life she got adopted. In this new period of her life she discovers the Prado museum. She become amorous with Goya, Velazquez, Ribera and Rembrandt. One of her preferred statements explaining her passion is: « I married very young, my first marriage was with the art ». I can endorse this is the case of Lita.
She got her first exhibition on the age of 17 at the Town Hall of Masnou, Barcelona. At 19 she decided to change her native country Spain, for new challenges in the Netherlands, where she studied between 1982-1984 at the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam.
Nowadays, Lita Cabellut is considered as a painter with a unique pictorial language, using a contemporary variation on the fresco-technique and a immensely enjoyable, communicative and recognizable ‘Cabellut-palette’. Lita Cabellut’s ‘human-faced’ paintings are exposed all around the globe, in New York, Dubai, Miami, Singapore, Hong Kong, Barcelona, London, Paris, Venice, Monaco, Seoul and many more cities.
