    Vladimir Shmoylov Receives Visionary Art Award in Magic realism Nomination

    February 10, 2023 – The global phenomenon of Visionary Art has attracted the attention of creators and viewers around the world, and Vladimir Shmoylov is the latest artist to receive recognition for his outstanding contribution to this genre. Shmoylov has been awarded the Visionary Art Award in the Magical Realism nomination for his captivating paintings that explore the boundaries between the real and the surreal.

    The award ceremony took place on February 11th, 2023. Vladimir Shmoylov’s artworks are display, alongside other Visionary Art masterpieces, at the virtiual exhibition that will run from February 1th to February 28th, 2023 – Exploring the Enchanting World of Vladimir Shmoylov’s Shamans – Visionary Art https://visionaryart.uk/2023/02/12/exploring-the-enchanting-world-of-vladimir-shmoylovs-shamans/

    Visionary Art is an artistic movement that reflects the artist’s original interest in the inner world, where fantasy rather than reality becomes the source of creativity. The style is characterized by spontaneous depictions of altered consciousness, religious, meditative contemplation, trance, and flashbacks. The artists of Visionary Art use all means available to them to show what lies beyond the boundaries of vision. They draw what is invisible, and the source of their experience is dreams, trance states, madness, and meditation.

    The development of this style goes hand in hand with the spread of Eastern spiritual practices, techniques of penetrating into the depths of the subconscious, and interest in the pagan and pre-written past of nations. The general idea of the artists of Visionary Art is the attitude to painting as a tool, through which the “inner landscape” is reflected. Paintings are some kind of portals, “which will open up infinite possibilities of existence and self-expression.”

    Vladimir Shmoylov is a virtuoso artist whose technical perfection and mastery of painting techniques are unmatched. He believes that art is a means on the way to self-knowledge and self-improvement. His paintings are portals that open up infinite possibilities of existence and self-expression.

    The Visionary Art Award is an international award that recognizes outstanding artists who have made significant contributions to the development of Visionary Art. Shmoylov is the latest addition to the list of the brightest representatives of Visionary Art, including Alex Grey, Allyson Grey, Andrew Gonzalez, Brigid Marlin, Olga Shpiegel, Kuba Ambrose, Oleg Korolev, Amanda Sage, Martina Hoffmann, Daniel Mirante, Aloria Weaver, David Heskin, Philip Rubinov Jacobson, Viktor Safonkin, and Agostino Arrivabene.

  • Desire Avenue Ignites London with Watch Me Burn Cultural Show

    Desire Avenue Ignites London with Watch Me Burn Cultural Show

    By Michel Mittelman, music and dance researcher

    London – On a cold winter night of September 24, 2022, London was lit up by a fiery display of culture, as Desire Avenue, a luxury couture brand, sponsored the exclusive Watch Me Burn Cultural Show at the prestigious Romanian Cultural Institute, located at 1 Belgrave Square, London. The show was part of the Watch Me Burn Culture Festival, a series of events organized by the Romanian Cultural Institute, to celebrate the richness and diversity of Romanian culture.

    The culture show was inspired by the Romanian folk tale of the Phoenix, a mythical bird that rises from the ashes after burning itself. The models wore stunning red dresses, designed by Desire Avenue’s founder and creative director, Maria Popescu, who is of Romanian origin. The dresses were made of silk, velvet, lace, and feathers, and featured intricate embroidery and embellishments. The dresses reflected the themes of rebirth, transformation, and resilience, as well as the beauty and elegance of Romanian craftsmanship.

    The first part of the event featured a musical performance by the contemporary classical composer, actor, and pianist David Balica and the opera singer soprano Zoltan Adrien Vivien. They interpreted the romance “Din vise dragi, poeme” by Sabin Păutza, with lyrics by Constantin Paiu, and Bertha’s aria “Tu” from the two-act operetta “Let me sing” by Gherase Dendrino.

    The show also featured a dance performance by Riccardo Fruttaldo and Evgenia Erofeeva, two professional dancers and choreographers, who interpreted the story of the Phoenix through contemporary movements. The dancers expressed the emotions of love, pain, and hope, as they moved across the stage, accompanied by a live orchestra. The audience was captivated by their grace and skill, and gave them a standing ovation.

    The talented Romanian singer Victoria Beregoi closed the live show and kicked off the second culture runway, singing “The Show Must Go On” and “Simply the Best”.

    Guests enjoyed the good music and atmosphere with a glass of wine.

    The Watch Me Burn Cultural Show was a success, artistically, as it attracted a lot of attention and praise from the media, the public, and the culture and fashion industry. The show also raised awareness and appreciation for Romanian culture and its contribution to the global art scene. The show was a testament to the vision and talent of Desire Avenue, and its founder, Maria Popescu, who said: “I wanted to create something that would honor my roots, and inspire people to embrace their own identity and uniqueness. I believe that fashion is not only about clothes, but also about stories, emotions, and values. I hope that through this show, I was able to share a part of my story, and the story of Romania, with the world.”
