Brief Artist Biography
Viktor Shvaiko was born in Altai, Russia in 1965, the son of an economist and an engineer. He grew up in one of Russia's most remote villages surrounded by the beauty of the wilderness. At the age of 12, he didn't hesitate to choose studying at junior art school. His natural inclination for the fine arts and his strong urge to share his vision of nature drove him to the Novoaltaisk Artistic School, where he studied for four years. Shvaiko credits his teacher, Ilbek Khairoullinov, for a true arts education.
Shvaiko's work shows a personal take on settings in Europe. Upon closer inspection, what appear to be simple compositions soon take on depth and complexity thanks to his subtle palette. Intimate settings, whether they are winding passageways or a view from a cafe window, draw in the viewer to immerse themselves.
Shvaiko invokes the fourth dimension of time. Hints here and there, such as the angle of shadows or radiant sunlight, clue the viewer in to the time of day. Peeling walls or faded paint speak to the locale's history. Hints of life also appeared flowers, signs, decorations, poured glasses of wine all of which combine to give a sense of story. Shvaiko's works have been exhibited in New York, Japan, Italy, Canada, Ukraine and many cities throughout the United States.
