Information about Galina Moskvitina
Style of Moskvitina - laternative realism - belongs to the so-called objective art, which is working with the concepts of soul, spirit and their development. In contrast to the rest of the Contemporary Art, dedicated to solving personal problems, the works of Galina Moskvitina touch the highest level of general tasks humanity has ever solved.
Some Western experts believe that Galina Moskvitina is one of the few who ran forward to a bright tomorrow of humanity. Her work is the result of twenty years of inaccessibility, partly conducted in monasteries of China and ashrams of India. Her discoveries and conquests of eastern spiritual science she synthesizes and translates for a Western mind. This knowledge is not “eastern” or “western”, it’s common to all mankind, as the sky which can’t be Italian or Indian.
Svetangi (lightangs) by Galina Moskvitina have found success in the Ukrainian and international art community. The painting "School of Dances" was sold during Russian bid by the British auction house Bonhams for 9600 pounds, and the work of "Cloud and Bird”, "Swing of Zhulay", "Ship of Ishtar" and many others are owned by prominent collectors. The beginning of the world tour of works by Galina Moskvitina has been marked by the exhibition, which represented Ukraine in Israel, at a reception in honor of the 20th anniversary of Independence of our country.
