About the Item
Anatoly Kost Diptych “Predestination”
2014 y. Canvas.Oil. Painting
Flat: 65/110 cm Framed: 69/118 cm
Diptych “Predestination” is a transformation of music on canvas.With the help of abstraction, all logical concepts arise. The process of distraction (abstraction) from certain characteristics of the object, while the observed object is replaced by its idealized theoretical form - an abstract object. Listening to music compositions, the viewer should feel the taste of colors, feel all the unusual contrasts and world perception of the pictures.
Diptych “Predestination”, which was presented at the exhibition in the National Art Museum of Ukraine, consists of:
“Scarecrow”
2014 y. Canvas.Oil. Painting
Flat: 65/55 cm. Framed: 69/59 cm.
The painting, created in 2014, reflects Anatoly Kost’s distinctive abstraction style, where color and form transcend representation, evoking deep emotional and cultural resonance. The scarecrow, often seen as a protector of the harvest, takes on a more profound meaning in this work, symbolizing cyclical rebirth, transformation, and the energy of change.
Kost’s artistic philosophy, rooted in contemp-abstraction, explores the polyphonic nature of art, where visual, musical, and choreographic elements intertwine. Inspired by Slavic folklore and the theatrical traditions of festive rituals, his works create a dialogue between past and present.
“After the Holidays”
2014 y. Canvas.Oil. Painting
Flat: 65/55 cm. Framed: 69/59 cm.
"After the Holidays" explores the quiet aftermath—a moment of reflection, nostalgia, and transition.
Created in 2014, this painting showcases Anatoly Kost’s mastery of contemp-abstraction, where movement and stillness merge into a contemplative composition. The subdued palette, dominated by soft blues, warm ochres, and subtle whites, contrasts with the more dynamic strokes, suggesting the lingering warmth of celebration fading into memory. The sun, glowing faintly in the upper part of the canvas, hints at the cyclical nature of time—the festival ends, but its energy remains.
