ART KYIV Autumn Edition

VERA Gallery presents the "Dialogue Beyond Time" project within the ART KYIV AUTUMN EDITION 2026 contemporary art fair at the Lavra Gallery space.

The exhibition presents a dialogue between two generations of an artistic dynasty - Vasiliy Ryabchenko, a key figure of the Ukrainian New Wave, and Stepan Ryabchenko, a leading figure in digital art. The architecture of the unified space is built on a synergy between traditional media and new technologies, where classical easel painting enters into a harmonious dialogue with digital art and three-dimensional form.

Vasiliy Ryabchenko’s refined lyrical sensibility unfolds through a monumental painted diptych, a concise conceptual photograph, and a selection of landmark canvases. Its natural continuation and technological evolution emerge in Stepan Ryabchenko’s imaginative world, embodied in digital works, minimalist sculpture, and refined ink drawings.

The carefully calibrated rhythm of the opposing walls brings together panoramic formats and powerful visual focal points, creating a compelling statement on the evolution of artistic language - from canvas and photographic film to the digital pixel.
