Ivan Sakhnenko
about the artist
Ivan Sakhnenko was born in 1955 in Tula where he still lives and works. After being expelled from the Penza Art College for his waywardness and refusal to conform to the ‘system,’ he briefly studied at the Minsk Art College, which he left on his own accord.
Sakhnenko often addresses such complicated subjects as mythology, history, and biblical narratives. The painter’s expressive manner is evident throughout: in his choice of palette, composition, lines, and shapes.
