Description

Endless Summer | Retro Inspired Circle Dance with Symbolism.

This large acrylic artwork transports the viewer into a mysterious scene inspired by an archival retro photograph from a German museum. A group of women, hand in hand, forms a circle dance on the sand—yet the image feels both familiar and enigmatic. Is it a ritual, a celebration, or simply a joyful moment captured in time? The ambiguity makes the artwork compelling, inviting multiple interpretations.

Originally envisioned in monochrome, the canvas evolved with the addition of subtle color accents—soft blues, greens, and warm tones—that act as a bridge between past and present. This artistic choice creates a crack in history through which we glimpse something long forgotten, fragile, yet timelessly human. The circle dance becomes symbolic: a metaphor for life's continuity, the unity of community, and the eternal rhythm of nature. Perfect for collectors of figurative and conceptual art, this artwork is both nostalgic and thought-provoking, a modern window into the early 20th century spirit of connection with nature.

Marina Lukianova, Endless Summer

Presentation

Marina Lukianova (b. Leningrad, Russia) is a contemporary figurative painter currently based in Basel, Switzerland. Born into an artistic family, with a painter and sculptor father as her first teacher, she graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Saint Petersburg in 1996 with a diploma in Architecture-Artist. Her career path has been shaped by a passion for travel and exploration, which led her to live and work in the Netherlands, Italy, and now Switzerland. Alongside her studio practice, she has worked as a landscape architect, illustrator, and interior designer, and for over 25 years has collaborated with M. Egetmeyer on the internationally recognized OH-cards project.

Lukianova works primarily with acrylic and watercolor, creating paintings that celebrate human connection and joy. Inspired by retro photography, she bridges past and present, transforming vintage imagery into vibrant compositions that evoke nostalgia and optimism. She often portrays the human figure in motion or repose, set against brightly tinted, dreamlike landscapes. Her use of washes, neon accents, and bold impressionistic palettes conveys the improvisation and festivity she believes are missing from modern rational life.

Her style fuses figurative clarity with surreal and pop-art influences, using strong linearity, proportion, and vivid color to create an immersive sensory experience. By reimagining fleeting memories of innocence and play, Lukianova's work invites viewers into a space of celebration and reflection, untouched by the accelerating forces of digital culture.

She has exhibited widely in Russia and across Europe, including in Venice, Zürich, Luzern, and Basel, and her works have been featured in Artist Feature Catalogue by Aedra Fine Publishing (2025). Through her art, Lukianova uplifts audiences with images that remind us of the beauty of togetherness, the spirit of festivity, and the timelessness of human emotion.
