“On the wave of memory” is a retrospective exhibition of Viktor Savets’ artworks. Memory is the driving force of this exhibition. We remember the artist, a talented painter with a romantic spirit. He was always guided by the quote from Paul Cézanne “We must not be content to memorize the beautiful formulas of our illustrious predecessors. Let us go out and study beautiful nature.”

the artist paste away three years ago. But it’s well known that the artist’s soul continues its life in his artworks. And this means that the exhibition “On the wave of memory” is a kind of dialog with the artist. In the images of the stormy sea, urban landscapes, portraits, the beauty of nature and its changing states, we feel the depth and scale of Viktor Sevets’ feelings. His love for the whole world.

The most important thing for the artist was to show the emotions he felt during contact with nature, to share his personal vision of beauty. And he done it well: bright and sunny landscapes are shines with optimism and lightness. Everything that each of us needs from time to time. Artworks, created at different times, reflect the artistic pursuits of Viktor Sevets.
