About the Item

Anatoly Kost “Brightening” 1996 y. Canvas.Oil. Painting Flat: 62,5/48 cm. Framed: 70,5/56 cm This picture is a transformation of music on canvas, so it is accompanied by: Visiomix - Joe Cocker "You Can Leave Your Hat On". Enlightenment in art is a feeling of knowledge, understanding and understanding that arises in the viewer when perceiving artistic creation. With the help of a work of art, you can reach new levels of consciousness. Enlightenment in art is an important factor in a person's development, as it can help him learn about himself and expand his worldview and understanding. The art object is not only a source of joy and satisfaction, but also supports the critical thinking and self-development that can occur in the viewer when looking at paintings and listening to Joe Cocker. Abstraction gives its own reflections, maybe the painting depicts a "Lightbulb", maybe it is a symbol of "Enlightenment". The dominant white shade is depicted on the orange background, which should also lead to a brighter understanding of art. Concept The painting "Brightening" by the outstanding Ukrainian artist Anatoliy Kost. The painting was painted in 1996 in the artist's Volyn workshop and was presented at many exhibitions. First of all, this painting belongs to the Collection of Six Paintings and to the "Dao" Triptych. The artist adheres to the concept of the process of transmuting the energy of abstract art into the energy of music or choreography and vice versa, emphasizing their mutual polyphonic nature. Masterpieces of world musical classics and choreography are a significant factor in the inspiration of his work, which became the basis for defining a personal philosophical direction in abstraction, namely contemp-abstraction. Anatoliy Kost used the slogan ArtHouse abstraction as a category of artistic form of communication with the viewer, through the formalization of the concept of Viѕiozong (a composition of several works), as an illustrated accompaniment to a musical or choreographic action.
