Alexey Kondakov, the Ukrainian artist tried to unite the past and present by giving characters from the classic paintings inspired from Cesar van Everdingen’s Bacchus to Caravaggio’s David and Goliath and William-Adolphe Bouguereau’s Nymphs and Satyr to positioned them in the chance to explore our modern world. Kondakov seems to be covering all his bases as he continues to use art history as a rich source of inspiration. The artist skillfully utilizes Photoshop to insert vintage muses in stores, on buses, on stairwells, and in the midst of urban alleyways for his ongoing series titled The Daily Life of Gods. Each image perfectly juxtaposes the paintings’ soft lines and subtle coloring with the harsh, blunt elements of urban locations. Follow him on Facebook, Instagram.
