About the Item

Bearing the same name as Michelangelo’s famous marble sculpture, this enormous painting on canvas portrays the body of Jesus - post-crucifixion - as he lay draped across the lap of Mary. Highly abstracted in her iconic geometric technique, Tobreluts brings a fresh vivacity to Renaissance Christian symbolism. Born in 1970 in Murino, Leningrad Oblast, Russia, Olga Tobreluts now lives in St. Petersburg and has studios also in Berlin, Germany and San Tagliamento, Italy. Tobreluts is an accomplished artist who works with photography, video, painting and sculpture. Olga is a pioneer of the digital art movement in Russia and has belonged to the Neo-Academism group of artists in St. Petersburg since 1994. Olga has had numerous solo museum exhibitions throughout the world, including in Belgium, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Singapore. Moreover, Tobreluts has shown with American favorites like Tony Oursler and Cindy Sherman, in addition to countless other well known international artists. Tobreluts's works have been exhibited at prestigious institutions such as the Tate Modern in London, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg, the Modem Centre for Modern and Contemporary Arts in Hungary, the Museum of Modern Art in Moscow, the Ostende Museum in Belgium, the Modern Art Museum in Stockholm, the Ludwig Museum in Budapest, and numerous others.
