Original artwork description:

This is an oil painting on the old portrait of Lenin. The canvas is a little damaged. Unframed painting 80 x 60 cm.
The series of transforming Soviet portraits of Vladimir Lenin are something in between the meditative practice and the research. Images from the deep subconscious give rise to different sences that inspire to thinking and reflection. One of the main subject of the series is the transformation of human into brand that becomes entity itself and continues it's evolution without own prototype. Lenin's ideas are not widely known, but the brand is known to everybody. Brand maintains its awareness, but gradually losing the content transforming into a ghost.

The buyer will be responsible for paying international customs fees, determined by the country the artwork is being shipped to. Unfortunately delivery service I use does not provide service 'Delivery Duty Paid'.
