About the Item

artist: Anastasia Aureum title: “Jazzy” original art print on canvas limited edition, hand signed Anastasia Kurakina is an internationally renowned visual artist. To date, she has been exhibiting internationally (Moscow, Mexico, Los Angeles, London, Milan, Venice, Switzerland, Oxford, Cambridge, St. Petersburg, Rome, Porto Cervo and other locations) in galleries, museums and unusual contests. She is the winner of many national and international art awards. Kurakina’s works are present in the collections of the Vatican Museums in Rome, in the International Museum of Humor in Art in Tolentino, in the National Museum of Sacred Art in Nonantola, in the Centro di Studi Manzoniani in Milan, in the Nina Lobanova — Rostovskaya collection in London, in the Marchesi Sacchetti collection in Rome and in many other private collections in Italy, Great Britain, Germany, Russia, United States, China, etc. Kurakina“s works are a personal interiorization that matches the search for a deeper meaning, beyond visible reality. Her”s is a desire to go beyond the pure representation of reality, a need to tell something that goes beyond the external aspect, that something that speaks of the inner part of those who are portrayed. Kurakina responds to an ancestral and primary need, namely the desire to stop a memory and make it materially eternal. The artist’s attention is directed towards the inner life of the subject, where shapes and colors become the way of expressing more than physicality: portraits that excite the observer, who manages to enter into the representation of emotions but also into the inner essence of people. The faces are enriched with subtle and beautifully refined expressions that reveal an emotional world overflowing with emotions and dreams. 'Like Henri Matisse and Italian Renaissance painters like Giotto, I experiment with the vibrant power of colours, trying to leave academic knowledge behind. Like Egon Schiele, I play with framing, making my characters seem to want to escape from their frame. Each new work arises instinctively, and is also a discovery for me every time. If other people experience the same emotions afterwards, that is pure magic.'
