For me, art is the life and revelation. There is no other alternative. At the same time art is drudgery. I work 365 days through a year, and can not help but do it. It is the verdict of fate, karma, doom. There is no escape from it. I dream of going to the warm beach, lying in the grass and listening to its growth, I want to watch the clouds soaring high up in the sky. I want to enjoy life, have fun, to mix up with people in a good company. I wouldn’t mind going to school to teach someone there. And then it occurs to me: but more than that I want to do something myself. Invincible belief! Ivan Marchuk www.ukrainianart.com/index.php?page=artistinfo&artist... Ivan Marchuk is Ukraine’s most prominent artist. Having made his name in America, Canada and Australia, Marchuk returned to Kiev after the September 11 attacks. One of the Ukrainian president's favourites, Marchuk was also named as one of 100 contemporary geniuses by Synectics UK& Europe consulting company, alongside such luminaries as Albert Hoffman, Nelson Mandela and ‘Simpsons’ creator Matt Groening.
