November 22, 2016 in Kirovograd Regional Art Museum there was the art exhibition of Alla Preobrazhenska-Roniker «REVIVAL. UKRAINE. RENAISSANCE».

The exhibition «REVIVAL. UKRAINE. RENAISSANCE» is devoted to Ukraine, its modern revival, so that was "a new breath ". This exhibition is a kind of meditation of the artist, an artist who has not lost hope for the magic of the art.

Reflecting on the tragic events in Ukraine for many decades at objective facts, breaking the shock of horrors of history and human suffering, the artist tries not to «close the eyes» that was limited to abstract moralizing, but to immerse spectators in ancient times, in the whirlpool of eternal themes and conflicts, reflecting two opposing incarnation of destruction and creation. Yesterday and very ancient past is combined in multi-surface pattern, which is covered with thick paint and alchemy of energy. This all can disappear in an instant, then frozen and merge together in the alloy. This is the second solo exhibition by Alla Preobrazhenska-Roniker in Kirovograd Regional Art Museum. The first exhibition with the romantic name "Walking City with Alla Preobrazhenska" the artist presented in her motherland in 2012.

Alla Preobrazhenska-Roniker was born in 1961 in Znamyanka, in Kirovograd region in a creative family. Her grandfather and a father were the painters. The father loved art very much, so he became her first teacher. Later Alla visited groups and art studios, but the main "artistic discoveries" were made independently. In 1984 she graduated Kirovograd State Institute of Agricultural Machine and until 1996 she worked as an engineer-designer at the "Silmash" in Bila Tserkva, having become the author of her own technological developments. But she didn’t change her deal of sacrificial service to a fine art. Therefore, Alla drew continuously, having looking carefully at the world, without tiring to admire and marvel at its diversity and finding at every step something interesting, expressive, meaningful. As Alla says: "This is already my character: if I had intended something, I go to the end. Moreover, I can’t imagine myself without creativity".

The eloquent sign of her active creative life were numerous solo exhibitions: "Life" - the Central House of the Artist (Kyiv, 2001.), «Amarilis» - the Central Exhibition Hall of Blanes (Spain, 2003), the opening of her own gallery «Alla Art Gallery» (Bila Tserkva), common exhibition in gallery «Butterfly» ( New Jersey, USA, 2010), "Paryzh and Kyiv.

"I put everything in my work what impressed me and I write with love that perhaps it resonates with the audience. Painting helps a person to dip into their own thoughts and feelings, extracts from the subconscious forgotten memories, bring dreams. I'm glad when my views coincide with the views of the audience, because the paintings convey my breath, my feelings, thoughts and movements of the soul, and every such movement on the canvas I examine for itself " - shares his thoughts Alla, having a complete confirmation of her works .
