Certificate of authenticity (COA) from the art gallery. An intricate and captivating work by the esteemed Ukrainian avant-garde artist Petro Boyko (b. 1954), "Greece" is a profound testament to the artist's distinctive vision and mastery of Neo-Expressionism. Measuring 80 x 100 cm (approximately 31.5 x 39.4 inches), this oil on canvas commands attention with its complex symbolism and evocative palette."Greece" exemplifies his rich artistic language, presenting a densely layered composition that transcends literal representation to explore themes of history, myth, and human experience through a dreamlike lens.The conceptual depth of the piece is immediately evident. Rendered in a dominant palette of ochres, browns, and subdued greens, punctuated by luminous yellows and piercing eyes, the painting invites viewers into a labyrinthine world. Elements reminiscent of ancient architecture and classical forms intertwine with abstract figures and symbolic eyes, suggesting a dialogue between past civilizations and present consciousness. The recurring eyes, a hallmark of Boiko's works, seem to observe the viewer, imbuing the composition with a sense of watchful mystery and introspection, perhaps reflecting the enduring spirit of a place steeped in history and myth.-Boyko Peter (born in 1954, Priluki, Chernigov region, Ukraine) is an artist and collector, a talented and extraordinary person.
