The renowned painter (born 1975) is a graduate of the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture of Ukraine and a grand holder of Fundación Valparaiso in Mojácar, Spain in the years 2010 and 2017. His painting style – from very traditional to extremely modern – is characterized by an amazing and harmonious combination of dynamic anxiety and internal silence. Kudriavchenko's works are full of motion and challenge, and yet these aspects seem unattainable, embedded in a meditative state of mind. His painting "Rouge" won the second prize of the Paris Salon d'Automne (2002) and the painting "Stop in the desert" was exhibited at the Salon SNBA 2004 in Carrousel du Louvre, Paris.
