Yelena Kimelblat

Born in Kiev, Ukraine, Yelena never formally learned how to paint. Yelena Kimelblat started to paint in 2008 and art became a means for Yelena to share with others her vision of life.

Yelena’s paintings belong to absolutely new genre… This genre is very much understood by the people who are absolutely new in the world of visual art. Yelena has the uncanny ability to see the unexpected side of the plain and the ordinary. One cannot arrive at this place with reason and logic. Her metaphoric thinking leads her to decisions that are so far from ordinary human associations.  That which Yelena is doing doesn’t fit within the understanding of artistic movements and schools of thought. She does not belong to any movement. She is on her own. She gives birth to her art pieces somehow naturally, and they naturally communicate to us that which belongs only to her: her visions of things and happenings – her inner world.  This perspective finds a connection with the people who view Yelena’s paintings, because the joy of being with which Yelena lives and works is being conveyed to people.

Yelena’s paintings on display in Chelsea Galleries, Museum of Russian Art, private collections. Her art work was selected for “WIDE OPEN 7” Metropolitan Museum of Art National juried art show at Brooklyn Waterfront Artist Coalition.

Oxana Uryasev

Oxana Uryasev was born in Ukraine to a family of academics in 1960.  Oxana’s mother, the professor of mathematics at the University of Kiev, was famous for writing di#cult to comprehend non-Euclidian geometry textbooks.  Under the stern in&uence of her mother, Oxana completed a doctoral degree in probability theory. She was slated to become a professor, teaching future Soviet nuclear scientists how to calculate the likelihood of their missiles landing on target.A few years later, with the Soviet Union dissolving around her, Oxana was far from this original plan.  Living in Vienna, Austria, she was raising two beautiful kids on a diet of Schnitzel and Kinderbier.  By the mid 90s, Oxana had moved to the USA.  Oxana studied under several prominent painters but is primarily self-taught. Her creative process is in&uenced by her mathematical background and the fantastical images are fed by her international cultural experience.  Her works are in several private collections and have been displayed at the Tench Gallery and at the Harn Museum of Art in Gainesville. Her paintings can be found at www.oxanau.com

A.Dudorov was the finalist in the 2015 and 2015 INTERNATIONAL ART FESTIVAL in New York. The creativity of A.Dudorov’s art focuses on the search for beautyand natural interest around the world: the light northern sky and sensation of cleanliness of frosty northern winter deeply penetrate the soul; the barely perceptible, but distinct smell of new-mown grass; the melodies of the solemn St. Petersburg architecture; running through a rain surrealistic trams; and flowers so loved by him.The artist carefully peers at details, not missing any nuance of life, and widely generalizing, with metaphysical scope.This gives freedom to emotions, specifying the shortest way to exhaustive clearness.It is extremely difficult to inhale a life in a picture, which, actually is an essential task of the master with divine gift. The form, color, texture, touch, light – all this in a harmonious combination also generates a necessary degree of persuasiveness of art of A.Dudorov. a_dudorov@list.ru
