Olexander Wlasenko; "Two Lights"
Strikingly beautiful new work by Olexander; this very large piece features the Danish born actress Ana Karina from the French film "She did it her Way". The drawing shows Ana as a bobbed-haired beauty passing two lights. She has a sultry and ambivalent look on her face. Ana, who was discovered by Coco Chanel and later married to Jean-Luc Godard, was one of the queen's of French cinema's "New Wave". While she may not be as well known as some movie icons, she had quite a successful career as an actress and also as a singer and writer. 60" l., 36" w. unframed. Canadian, 2012 SOLD
