Yiannis Posnakoff
Yianni Posnakoff is a Greek-Russian artist living in Plaka,
Athens. He had many successful shows up until 1984 in both
the United States and Greece selling his works for thousands
of dollars. He now resides quietly in Athens and continues
to paint new abstract images everyday, many of them using
5-6 separate canvases for one idea or, more often, a cycle
of events. His apartment is always filled wall to wall with
incredible paintings and he also occupies a storage area
with thousands more.
During the last twenty years, Yianni explains that the
art he most cares about is within himself. He aspires to
be a complete and balanced person with the universe. His
talent is portrayed in many styles of painting. His subjects
include faces, beaches, gods, angels, nudes, men, and women
in countless forms using colorful paints or a simple black
and white image. His paintings are undeniably fascinating
and truly impressive. He will fascinate you, as well. He
loves to talk about his work and all that he is saying through
it on a variety of spiritual and psychological levels, which
he feels most of us tend to ignore. Yiannis is finally ready
to sell his works again. The prices of his works begin at
a couple hundred dollars and go upward from there. He can
be contacted for an appointment only by phone or email.
I would recommend seeing more of his work!
