Sanya Kantarovsky
Mixed Media
Sanya Kantarovsky paints sinewy, morose figures in colorful, surreal compositions inflected with dry humor and existential angst, drawing on cartoons, folk tales, and Eastern European visual traditions alongside modernists such as Chagall and Matisse. His subjects range from lovers and mothers to children and strangers, rendered against abstract backdrops. Work is held by the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Tate.
