Anatoly Kost
"Turkey Dance"

2002

About the Item

Anatoly Kost “Turkey Dance” 2002 y. Canvas.Oil. Painting Flat: 75/78 cm. Framed: 79/82 cm. "Turkey Dance" is a vivid and dynamic exploration of movement, energy, and nature’s chaotic rhythm. Anatoly Kost captures a mesmerizing moment of avian vitality, where turkeys and other birds seem caught in a swirling, almost ritualistic dance. The composition is a rich interplay of fiery reds, deep blues, and earthy greens, creating a pulsating contrast that embodies the untamed spirit of the natural world. Through Kost’s expressive brushwork, the birds appear both tangible and abstract, their forms dissolving into the layered textures of the background. The gestural strokes and electric color palette evoke a sense of urgency and wild beauty, transforming the canvas into an immersive experience of movement and sound. This work does not merely depict a scene; it resonates with primal energy, inviting the viewer to feel the pulse of life within its depths. Concept Painted in 2002 in Anatoly Kost’s Volyn workshop, Turkey Dance is a key piece in the artist’s ongoing dialogue between abstraction and representation. The painting reflects his fascination with nature as both subject and metaphor—capturing the raw, untamed essence of existence through bold color choices and layered textures. Exhibited in several contemporary collections, this work embodies Kost’s signature ArtHouse abstraction style, where motion and emotion merge into a singular artistic vision. His ability to balance chaos and composition, instinct and intellect, is what defines him as a master of "contemp-abstraction." An electrifying addition to any modern collection, Turkey Dance offers not just a visual spectacle but an invitation to engage with the untamed rhythms of life. Ideal for collectors who appreciate vibrant, thought-provoking works that celebrate the beauty of nature’s unpredictability.
