  • Catalogue Essay

    One of the most consistent themes of Yuri Dyshlenko's art is the phenomenon of mass culture, and the unique language it uses to broadcast clichéd material and cultural values.
    Working mostly in figurative art, the artist creates a new reality, mocking and laying bare the dreams of Soviet man of a prosperous life in the west.
