Event Details

The Vorres Gallery is pleased to introduce Extraordinary Essence, the work of Vadim Puyandaev, October 3-November 14. The painter, sculptor and performance artist has spent over 30 years perfecting his technique.

An artist reception will be held October 3, from 5:30-8:30. During the reception, an audio-visual-kinetic performance will take place, affording the viewer a deeper understanding of the work and the artist.

Puyandaev’s work is influenced by the lyrical abstraction of Kandinsky, employing families of colors, different values, to create a unified, powerfully evocative, color induced mood.

The paintings, figurative, abstract, and landscapes, employ variations of surface texture, as well as differences of scale, weight and substance. Fine lines layered over contrasting chunky brushstrokes, daubs of light, unearth figures, and provide suggestions of life in a light dappled world.

His fine art has been shown in solo and group exhibitions in Russia, Israel, Japan, Switzerland, France, Spain, Canada, and the US. He has also produced numerous pieces of monumental art.

Puyandaev was commissioned to design a bridge over the Red Sea as well as a sculpture ensemble for the entrance to the city of Eilat in Israel. He was commissioned to create murals in the Eilat Airport and the Taba border of Israel.

Puyandaev has been the recipient of numerous awards from prestigious institutions including SOMArts, Stanford Arts Initiative, Zellerbach Family Foundation, Ministry of Culture and Ministry of Tourism in Israel, Salon des Leopards, Saint-Tropez, France, Festival Palmares des Blues en Peinture, Saint Tropez, France.

Education:

MFA: University of Kazakhstan
Xylography: Artist Union, Belarus

With his partner, Erika Tsimbrovsky, he is a founding member of the creative groups of artists EVM Laboratories (Israel) and Avy K Productions (US), dedicated to investigating what emerges in performance at the nexus of different genres.

The show will run from Oct 3-Nov 10, 11-6 PM.
