Belarusian State Academy of Arts, faculty of Design and Decorative and Applied Arts graduate Vasili Zianko is working in so called “enviromental romanticism” style. Reaching out to Art Nouveau heritage, formed in the early XX century, is one of stylistic features of his art. Personal technique is based on painting with acryl on canvas with use of different textures, thinnest glazing, but most importantly – volumetric outlines. Pieces uniquiness is based on ornamental “curliness” of natural shapes of plants and wildlife in combination with slight asymmetry. Artist’s works resemble dancing, wavy arabesques, pierced by organic energy and herbal life force.

Zianko’s pieces belong to collections of modern arts in National Art Museum of the Republic of Belarus (Minsk, Belarus), National Modern Arts Museum of the Republic of Belarus (Minsk, Belarus), Maxim Bogdanovich Literary Museum (Minsk, Belarus), Museum of Minsk history, Vitebsk Art museum, Museum of Russian Art (New York, USA), “Tradition” Picture Gallery of G.M. Prianishnikov (Svetlogorsk, Belarus), Lida historical Art museum (Lida, Belarus), as well as private collections of Austria, Belarus, Germany, USA, Norway, Russia, Poland, Turkey, France.
