About the Item
This is a very rare to find painting that was exhibited by Alexis Gritchenko at the Athens Museum of Byzantine Art in 1923. Originally, 36 encaustic on cardboard pieces from the Greek Dancers series were created during 1921-1923 by Gritchenko (this is one of them). The works were inspired by ancient vases of the early epoch in a series of Greek Dancers. A well known ancient Greek art historian, Pavlos Kawadias found these dancers as authentic as the originals and was fascinated by these works. Alexis Gritchenko in his early creative years liked to reflect on Byzantine Art in connection with the Ukrainian Icon. This work is from a prominent American collection and in an excellent condition. Framed.

- Zumbi dos PalmaresBy Mark Steven GreenfieldLocated in Santa Monica, CAHalo presents an amazing cast of historical black figures, most of whom were legendary and mythic characters in their time, but have been nearly lost to the vagaries and biases of history as seen through a white lens. With Halo, Greenfield brings the stories of Black folk-saints, martyrs, freedom-fighters, survivors, magicians, and visionaries back into view. Many of the figures are from the 1400-1800s, a timeframe that corresponds with Europeans beginning to use racial distinction as a tool to justify slavery. Greenfield honors their simultaneously disturbing and astounding lives by bestowing them with halos, traditionally seen as reverential symbols of adoration and respect. “I am reimagining what a saint is,” Greenfield says. “Maybe in studying their stories, they can inform us on better ways to live.” Thought to have been a descendent of central African royalty...Category
