The composition, created on the basis of new impressions of the Emirates, invites the viewer to feel the synergy of the pictorial context. Stylistic proximity gives an artistic diffuser filled with new meanings.

Art does not convey only what is visible, but makes visible what is secretly comprehended. This is a well-known concept and fully applies to abstract painting. The viewer is immersed in his artistic vision and revelation, revealing his subjective vision of the incomprehensible world. The main attention is focused on the color and textured surface, on the plastic fluidity of the abstract forms. Color, as a metaphor for worldview, as a reverse self-value, as a visible image of a certain state of mind.

At a time when there is anxiety in the world, dramatic, disruptive color combinations should be avoided. To paraphrase a famous saying, the more complex the world becomes, the more abstract art becomes and his new series of works “Synergy” is the confirmation of this. It is necessary to preserve such fundamental basic concepts in painting as color, color, harmony and, associated with them, the principles of positive, creative energy.

ABOUT THE ARTIST Petro Lebedynets is a Ukrainian painter, abstract artist, well known both in Ukraine and abroad. He was born in 1956 in Melitopol, Zaporizhia region. Having turned 12, he started to attend an art studio for children at the Shevchenko Palace of Culture where his teacher was A. Fesiuk. The first teacher of the to-be professional artist did not seek to teach his students paint still lifes with flowers or plaster busts, but tried to teach them to see the world through color, poetry and music, since he not only painted, but also wrote poetry and even played the balalaika. It was in the art studio, where Lebedynets tried everything - painting, plastic arts, embossing, - that he realized that the main thing in creativity was an individual worldview and handwriting.

He graduated from Kyiv State Art Institute, where he learned from V. Shatalin (1978-1984). Like many others, the artist began his creative career by studying the basics of academic painting. In 1984, he defended a diploma at the Kyiv State Art Institute with a big painting on the then popular military subject. However, he felt an unceasing inner need of change. Lebedynets began to fill his realistic paintings with decorative flowers and symbolic forms. Having grown fairly tired of the academicism implanted in the institute, and having received his diploma, Petro Lebedynets decided not to replicate realistic canvases, and instead began experimenting with color. The search for his own pictorial language lasted for several years. Drawing inspiration from Matisse and Gauguin, the coloristic theories of Johannes Itten and Wassily Kandinsky, Mr. Lebedynets developed his own formula of color. The artist himself does not consider it innovative, yet, truly considered the best colorist of Ukraine. Overall it’s not of essence, since for him it is not loud manifestos that matter, but rather inner freedom.

He’s been a member of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine since 1990. Winner of numerous awards: certificate of honor of the participant of the Art Festival Our Heritage (Metropolitan Museum and National Arts Club, New York); honorary prize Artist of the Year at the International Art Festival in Kyiv in 1997, honorary prize of the winner of the creative competition dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the UN in Ukraine in 1996, honorary prize of the jury of the international exhibition Contemporary Art in Nice in 1996, he has more than 50 solo exhibitions on his account, as well as participation in over 100 group exhibitions.
