November 20 - December 24, 1998
Works by Oksana Movchan "Heaven Falls to Earth by Flowers"

 
Movchan's graphic work combines extraordinary inventiveness, immaculate execution, and wealth of graphic ideas: gold leafing and hand coloring, use of color rice paper (chine-colle), and printing on fabric. With a strong Byzantine influence and intense spirituality, Oksana Movchan's images of Biblical themes epitomize the modern icon.
