SUMMARY:Oleh and Alexander Denysenko 'ANTIQVITAS NOVA'
DESCRIPTION: \n  \nOleh and Alexander Denysenko\nANTIQVITAS NOVA: Levkas\, Etchings\, Sculpture\, and Gessography\nMay 20– extended through July 17\, 2022 \n\nReception for the artists: Friday\, May 20 from 6:00–8:00pm\nThe Ukrainian Institute of America\n2 East 79th Street\, NYC \nDonation \n  \nArt at the Institute is pleased to announce a special mid-career survey exhibition featuring works by Lviv-based Ukrainian artists Oleh and Alexander Denysenko titled ANTIQVITAS NOVA\, opening on May 20\, 2022\, and remaining on view through June 19. This exhibition will feature the creative journey of Oleh Denysenko through sculpture\, intaglio printmaking\, and unique levkas painting to the invention of his unique artistic idiom\, Gessography\, created in collaboration with his son Alexander Denysenko. Curated by Walter Hoydysh\, PhD\, Director of Art at the Institute\, this exhibition will mark Oleh Denysenko’s third showing with the Ukrainian Institute of America\, and Alexander Denysenko’s debut. A public reception for the artists will be held on Friday\, May 20 from 6:00 – 8:00pm. \nAn innovative and prolific artist practiced in the disciplines of painting\, sculpture\, calligraphy\, and book illustration Oleh Denysenko is internationally recognized for his intricate etchings on paper. An astoundingly inventive draftsman—due in part to years of studying the moralizing art of Northern European masters such as Bosch\, Bruegel\, Cranach\, and Dürer\, among others—Denysenko developed a highly original framework and spatial base around which an alchemy of fantastical and metaphor-ical character narratives flourish. Conjuring his magical stage of actors from the depths of his mind’s inner image\, Denysenko weaves elements of national identity\, religion\, myth\, and legend into a tapestry of unnatural history\, suggesting a chronicle of both weight and whimsy. \nThe recent series of works created with a unique innovative patented technique Gessography. Gessography brings together the salient tactility of sculpture\, the refinement and symbolic storytelling of intaglio\, the spiritual undertones of levkas\, and the vivid emotions of painting. \nThe exhibition also feature AETHER – Renaissance-inspired artistic covers for iPhone. Challenging the status quo\, AETHER reunites fine and applied art\, turning the iPhone into a display for authentic artworks. \n  \nAbout Oleh and Alexander Denysenko \nBorn in Lviv\, Ukraine\, Oleh Denysenko concentrated in graphics while studying at the National Academy of Printing (Lviv). He holds over thirty international honors for printmaking\, including Grand Prize of the 9th Mondial Triennale for Small Prints (2014) in Chamalieres\, France.
