Vitaly Pushnitsky (b. 1967) is one of the most famous Russian artists of his generation. He was born in Leningrad, graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts, and lives in St. Petersburg.
Pushnitsky is primarily a painter, but he also works masterfully in a wide range of techniques, from print graphics to video installations and NFT.
The Garden is the artist's first book.
The book consists of about fifty pictorial illustrations created simultaneously with the text itself about life, death, art, and man. All this forms a kind of parallel flow in the book to its content. The Garden is reminiscent of an ancient oriental treatise on art, in which witty interpretations of ancient myths are juxtaposed with lyrical reflections on the nature of matter.
The book was published in Russian and English in a limited edition of 500 copies.
