About the Item
Anatoly Kost “Providinnya”
2012 y. Canvas.Oil. Painting
Flat: 72/72 cm.Framed: 76/76 cm
"Providinnya" (translated as "Guidance" or "Farewell") is an evocative abstract composition that captures the essence of transition—both physical and emotional. The painting’s dynamic structure, composed of bold black and deep blue strokes, conveys movement, while earthy ochre and soft neutral tones provide balance, symbolizing the tension between past and future, departure and arrival. The sharp verticals and fragmented lines suggest a constructed yet dissolving form, reminiscent of ships, bridges, or fleeting memories.
Kost’s signature approach to abstraction allows the viewer to engage with the painting on multiple levels. The structured chaos hints at the impermanence of human experiences—perhaps a journey across waters, a symbolic farewell, or a guiding force leading into the unknown. The interplay between the cool, reflective blues and fiery red accents evokes a sense of emotional contrast, reinforcing the painting’s theme of transition and resilience.
Concept
Created in 2012 in Anatoly Kost’s Volyn workshop, Providinnya is part of the artist’s exploration of existential themes within contemporary abstraction. This piece has been exhibited in several prestigious galleries, where its dynamic composition and striking color contrasts drew attention from collectors and art enthusiasts alike.
Kost is widely recognized for his unique "contemp-abstraction" style—an artistic philosophy that merges abstraction with deep philosophical inquiry. His works, often inspired by movement, music, and human emotion, challenge the boundaries between structure and spontaneity. The term ArtHouse abstraction, coined by the artist, defines his approach as a form of conceptual storytelling through visual rhythm and dynamic form.
Providinnya is a compelling piece for collectors seeking artwork that conveys both raw energy and profound contemplation. Whether displayed in a modern interior or a gallery setting, it remains a testament to Kost’s mastery of abstract expression.
