A SYMBOLIC-ALLEGORICAL PAINTING
Vladimir Golub was born in the small city of Slutsk, Belorus. He entered the easel painting department of Belorusain Academy of Arts. At the very start of this career, Golub, like many of this contemporaries, experienced the expansion of the official soviet art on the one hand, and the emasculation of late ‘Avant-garde’ on the other. It made him search for this personal style. Currently, his style represents a combination of Realism and Fantasy. Inspired by the images of West Slavic mythology, the painter created his own Symbolic-allegorical landscape inhabited by the spirits of Nature.
