Igor Grechanyk

Collect Art proudly announces the representation of internationally acclaimed sculptor Igor Grechanyk. Known for his masterful ability to fuse myth, philosophy, and contemporary expression, Grechanyk’s work transcends the boundaries of time and culture. His bronze sculptures evoke a profound sense of spirituality and transformation, reflecting on the eternal connection between humanity and the cosmos.

Igor Grechanyk is a sculptor and artist whose work blends philosophical symbolism, mythopoetic imagery, and a contemporary sculptural language. His creations are visualized fragments of spiritual experience, resonating with the collective unconscious and touching on the eternal questions of human existence. He gives form to the undefined, materializing spirit in bronze.

Born in Kyiv into an artistic family, Grechanyk graduated from the Kyiv State Art Institute in 1984. His early career, shaped by the ideological pressures of Socialist Realism, led him to a fusion of classical plasticity with a metaphysical intensity of image.

Grechanyk’s work gained early international recognition even during the Soviet era and the 1990s, with exhibitions in East Germany, Sweden, France, and the USA (including the Lincoln Center, New York). However, it was from the early 2000s that he began participating actively in major international exhibitions across Europe and Asia.

His figures possess an architectural stability and read as symbols—a blend of monumentality and surreal vision. His approach is closer to the thinking of ancient masters: “Only the spirit matters,” he says. “I materialize it in my own way… The spirit itself chooses both the form and the vessel.”

The core of his current creation lies in exploring new digital and material dimensions, capturing the elusive concept of 'Time' and pushing the boundaries of sculptural language to reflect the contemporary human condition. His large-scale public sculptures serve as cultural ambassadors at notable sites internationally.

Collected by connoisseurs worldwide for its rare ability to touch the deep, archetypal layers of human perception, the art of Igor Grechanyk stands as one of the defining voices of his generation — a creator whose visions will remain as vital tomorrow as they are today.
