ZOYA March-June 2008
ZOYA ('life' in Greek) is a living art project - an exhibition of new work
by Zoya Lucevich, one of the most exciting contemporary artists in
Belarus. The unique mixed-media pieces are intriguing and rich
creations on auto windshields, along with her paintings on canvas
and wood - produced entirely during her stay in Washington DC in
a studio kindly provided by A.Salon. Coming from the land of
Marc Chagall, Zoya's work reflects her impressions of America, and projects her unique artistic and national identity that blends old-world humanism with an expressive modernism.
Organized by Mondano, the ZOYA project is a collaboration with Chernobyl Children's Project International to help establish arts programs for children in Chernobyl-affected areas, offering a hopeful light of art for many young people who live in its aftermath.
