Artist Andrei Rabodzeenko, of the Soviet Union, has worked with all kinds of mediums including sculpture, paint, and drawings, which is quite impressive. Nothing slows him down. He claimed that he is "not obsessed with any exact style(s)." In his exhibit, he showed his Daedalus inspired paintings which were very elaborate. His current set of drawings displayed on brown and white paper, looked like they were done by a completely different artist compared to his previous works. They are not as colorful or realistic, but they still grab the viewer's attention as they are so intriguing...Quick, messy, dark and light lines lead the viewer's eye allover his pieces. One could describe his work as being very "gestural," or surprising. Rabodzeenko stated that switching mediums helped him gain more ideas. The artist's color scheme was a mix of black, white, and orange. Piece number five was one of my favorite works because it feels the most dramatic. It is as though the man is moving with his outstretched arm. In piece number thirteen, one of my least favorite pieces, a black outline fills the center amongst orange rectangles placed in the background. This composition feels messy but loose. A viewer can assume that Rabodzeenko quickly made his marks here and wasn't very concerned about perfection.
