Arsen Savadov

Arsen Savadov is a prominent Ukrainian contemporary artist born in 1962, known for his large-scale, provocative paintings and photographs that blend mythology, history, and social commentary.

He rose to international prominence in the 1980s as part of the Ukrainian New Wave and has exhibited widely across Europe and internationally.
