WHITE SPACE

A new project “Anno Domini” by Alexander Zhyvotkov has been introduced in the White Space of the Stedley Art Foundation.

Alexander Sukholit is an artist whose creations comprise the undertones of many artistic epochs. His searches of expressions are never chronologically consistent: having explored Antiquity, he dives into the archaic art, the Paleolithic.

To mark the 85th anniversary of the artist Stedley Art Foundation presents an exhibition of Alexander Dubovik's "Labyrinth of Meanings".

«The Border Zone», the annual all-Ukrainian land art symposium that takes place on a picturesque chalk plateau in dear Mogrytsia village of Sumy region, has just finished. Stedley Art Foundation invited Natalia Lisova, one of the participants of the symposium, to the White Space. The exhibition is part of Kyiv Art Week.

White Space of Stedley Art Foundation presents The Roads (2015-2016). To make the wood sound at the touch, not one but seven boards were used to make Routs (2015-2016). Two edge ones are clean, those «covers». The rest, five get us back to the landscapes of Mohrytsia that are briefly defined by lights and volume and are so very Zhyvotkov.

The White Spece of the Stedley Art Foundation presents the exhibition of Hryhorii Havrylenko (1927-1984), one of the most important Ukrainian artists of the XX cent. who have not been properly studied.

MOTHERBOARD is a rather pretty word firmly entrenched in computer slang in most countries. In Russian “materinka” or “materinskaya plata” are inexcusably a part of all things digital. So where does the very much analogue Zhyvotkov enter the picture? If you separate “mother” from “board” you get Zhyvotkov’s favourite medium – the board. One doesn’t need to attempt interpreting the “mother” part since the “mother board” becomes a rather literal description of the 13 works that weigh in at 650 pounds and constitute the artists new 2015 cycle.

The White Space presents the «Formation» exhibition. The project explores the art of Serhiy Panych - a bright representative of the "Ukrainian New Wave". The exhibition is curated by Valeriy Sakharuk.

Alexander Sukholit is an artist who resists the rules of the game that the contemporary world imposes on us. He refuses to manipulate with particularities and keeps on his exclusive work with universal categories, willing to get back to the “childhood of mankind” filled in with metaphysical sense.
