Painting Actress Margarita, artist Roitburd Alexander
- Overview
- Characteristics

A unique choreographic portrait — a female figure, nude and uninhibited, frozen in a defiant, almost circus-like pose. Her left leg is raised high, as if mid-somersault, and this dynamic gesture sharply contrasts with her serene, even apathetic facial expression. The figure seems split between physical expression and emotional detachment. The background space is conventional and lacks depth — a thick texture of earthy strokes forms not so much a landscape as a psychological atmosphere. Everything here speaks to the body as an instrument for expressing the inner world, to the grotesque nature of humanity, and the absurdity of beauty.
The work is executed in Alexander Roitburd's recognizable style — with heavy, impasto brushstrokes that emphasize the density of the form and enhance the physicality of the image. The color palette, rich in ochre, terracotta, and brown tones, evokes a sense of antiquity while simultaneously conveying modernist irony.
Alexander Roitburd: Visionary of Ukrainian Contemporary Art and Museum Reformer
One of the most prominent representatives of the "New Ukrainian Wave," Roitburd combined painting, curatorial work, and social activism. His artistic language is an ironic, audacious, and layered dialogue with both classical and contemporary themes, always imbued with profound meaning. Roitburd didn't just create paintings — he transformed art into an instrument for change.
