Dany這 Mowczan

Dany這 Mowczan is one of the most outstanding Lviv artists and creators of icons. He is a graduate of Religious Paintings Department at the Lviv National Arts Academy (2006). His works were presented at numerous exhibitions not only in Ukraine but also in many other European countries. Icons drawn by him can be seen in churches and private collections, for example in Finland, Italy, Germany, Canada and Poland or Belarus. Dany這 Mowczan is a scholarship holder of the programme Gaude Polonia 2012.

“Dany這 Mowczan is one of the most outstanding Lviv artists and icon creators. The main source of inspiration is the medieval Ukrainian icon that he is very well familiar with since he used to work as an art restorer. At the same time, without clashing with tradition, Dany這 is doing his best so as to remain a contemporary artists and create works set in the modern world that could be appreciated by his contemporaries. His icons, but also other works, are laconic and drawn towards the simplest of forms and pure colour. Dany這 Mowczan searches for the perfect picture — simple but understandable through its original divine beauty, with no extreme emotions, vanity, shades and unnecessary lines. Just harmony.”
