Ivan Ivanovich Chorny
Ivan Ivanovich Chorny (Russian: Иван Иванович Чёрный) was a Soviet, Ukrainian and Russian artist of the second half of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. He was known for his monumental and decorative works in the style of socialist realism.
Ivan Chorny reoriented his style in the late 1990s, inventing a new technique and moving away from figurativeness in favor of abstract painting. His enigmatic compositions became an expressive expression of inner feelings enriched with colors and lines.
