Item Summary

The description provided by the artist: "С началом военной агрессии России против Украины обрушилось доверие к остаткам культурного наследия и фетишей империи. Некогда трогательные знакомые с детства символы и знаки окончательно теряют свое очарование. Сейчас идет война цивилизаций, война двух культур и мировозрений." Холст, масло.

"With the onset of Russia's military aggression against Ukraine, trust in the remnants of cultural heritage and empire fetishes has collapsed. Once endearing, familiar symbols from childhood have now lost their charm completely. Currently, it's a war of civilizations, a clash between two cultures and worldviews." Oil on canvas.
