NEWCOMERS

Featuring

Gena Ivanov and Yuriy Shevchuk


6 May - 16 June, 2009


EE Fine Art is delighted to welcome two exciting and innovative artists on board; the Ukrainian born Yuriy Shevchuk and the Russian born Gena Ivanov in this stunning new Exhibition. Both artists are very different in the way that they perceive and interpret the world, their passions in life and both have the amazing ability to give life to their subject, which in turn intoxicates and deeply engages the viewer. Yuri Shevchuk’s two passions in life are painting and jazz music. He skillfully and rapidly sketches the cool and charming figures of musicians in action. His lively and spontaneous paintings expertly translate the atmosphere and verve of the music, using dripping, seeping paints and pastels. In the presence of Shevchuk’s paintings one can almost hear the blues, feel the beguiling emotions and impassioned feelings of the musicians translated through this artist. The artist Gena Ivanov paints in many different styles and materials. His artworks exude bold, vibrant colours, sinuous provocative movement and vitality. In particular, he has always found the male form to be inspiring, his portraiture of the male as subject is anatomically precise and that gives a nod to his early love of modern dance and drama. Ivanov says he wants his paintings to stimulate and inspire people, lifting them from the mundane and the grey drabness of everyday banality and overwork. This promises to be an absolutely fascinating Exhibition and an amazing opportunity to see the work of two exceptional artists who exhibit their artworks all over the world.
