Title: Oil painting Good night Igor Konovalov Description: No.Kon 114The painting "Good Night" by Ukrainian artist Igor Konovalov is a vibrant and imaginative depiction that juxtaposes the innocence of childhood with the pervasive influence of modern information. The scene centers on a small child, depicted with a sense of wonder and curiosity, seated amidst a colorful and almost fantastical environment. The child is surrounded by Konovalov's symbolic "bunnies," here represented as playful and brightly colored orbs that seem to bounce around the space.These "bunnies" symbolize the streams of information that are omnipresent in today's world. They illuminate the scene with their vivid hues, suggesting both the pervasiveness and the impact of digital data flows that surround even the youngest members of society. The varied colors and sizes of the orbs may indicate the diverse nature of information we encounter daily.Konovalov's work invites viewers to reflect on how this constant influx of information impacts the formative experiences of children, shaping their perceptions from a very young age. Despite the overwhelming presence of these "bunnies," the painting conveys a message of optimism and control: the right to choose which information to embrace remains with the individual, represented here by the child. This empowers the viewer to consider the role of guidance in navigating the digital world, particularly for the newer generations.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Good night"* ARTISTS: Igor Konovalov* SIZE: 110x135 cm/'43.30x53.14 inches' * MEDIUM: oil, canvas* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: we tried to convey the maximum information with the help of photos about this productAbout the artist: He was born in 1965 in the city of Novy Bug.1983—1987 — Dnipropetrovsk State Art School.1987—1993 — Kyiv State Art Institute.Since 1993, co-founder of the art commune "Squat on Olehivska Street", the activity of which has two periods:1993—1996 — "classic squat" (occupation of premises for workshops and housing, exhibition activity, as a practice of introduction into society).1996-2006 — "fictitious squat" (author of the project — Fiction Gallery Expedition. — going beyond workshops and galleries (institutions) into open urban space.The founder of the Hill-art direction (art on the hills), within the framework of which actions were held and facilities were created on the hills of Kyiv.2010-2020 - develops the author's mythology, which he called "Infodelica".The creator of paintings, promotions, objects and video art.Lives and works in Kyiv.EXHIBITIONSPersonal exhibitions:2020 - Recreation room, Kyiv History Museum, Kyiv2019 - "Voices", CSM "Soviart", Kyiv2018 - "Two Pages", Kyiv History Museum, Kyiv2017 - "Point of support", CSM "Soviart", Kyiv2016 – "Presidency", CSM "Soviart", Kyiv2016 - "Relax", CSM "Soviart", Kyiv2015 – "Wi-Fi", DTEK Academy, business center "Eurasia", Kyiv2013 - "Infa&infadelika", 8-bit Gallery, Kyiv2012 - "Infa", Gallery "Forest", Moscow, Russia2011 - "Infa", RA Gallery, Kyiv2010 – I.
