Vasiliy (Vasily) Sad (born in 1948) is a Ukrainian abstract painter. He has been an active member "apartment exhibitions" in Odesa, which defended alternative forms of art against the Socialist Realism endorsed by the Soviet Union.[1][2]
Early artistic career[edit]
Born in the Velyki Telkovychi village (Rivne oblast) in Ukraine in 1948, Vasiliy Sad moved to Odesa where he then graduated from the Grekov College of Arts in 1977. Shortly after his graduation he joined the "Mamai" group,[3] a collective of non-conformist abstract painters named after Ukraine's national hero. From the early 1970s, the members of the group took an active part in the dissident Odessa Group. They displayed their art on the occasion of illegal "apartment exhibitions" in Odesa and Moscow, as they championed Soviet Nonconformist Art in the Ukraine.[4][5]
