Lily Obsession | Online Exclusive
The Ukrainian - American artist Shimon Okshteyn is best known for his distinctive black & white works.
This show presents a series of monochrome works made between 2000 and his death in 2020 where his individual gesture in painting was taken to new levels of aggression and was manifested by assaults on his canvases with evocative slashes and holes.
Eleven paintings, three works on paper and one glass sculpture are all inspired by the lily flower, or lilium in Latin, a symbol of purity, innocence and rebirth.
“OKSHTEYN'S STILL LIFES—OBJECTS WHOSE LIFE HAS BEEN STILLED—NOT ONLY EXPLORE THE BOUNDARY BETWEEN ORDINARY OBJECTS AND POETIC OBJECTS—NON-ART AND FOUND ART—BUT BETWEEN AESTHETICS AND EROTICS.”___Donald Kuspit, New York City.

Shimon Okshteyn: Mirror Paintings
In 2005 Shimon Okshteyn began merging his interest in conceptual and figurative representation by adding mirror to canvas. This exhibition traces the evolution from the combination of graphite copies of old masterpiece paintings and contemporary graffiti art (2005-2007) to images of popular street drugs (2008-2010) to “documentary portraits” (2014).

Witchcraft. The Library of Esoterica
"Shimon Okshteyn, Satisfaction, 1984" included in "Witchcraft. The Library of Esoterica" hardcover, 520 pages book published by Taschen in October, 2021.
”There is a certain victim/voyeur vice when viewing the seductive prowess in the modern siren paintings of Okshteyn. Their relationship to the element of fire is significant in cigarette smoke, and in Satisfaction, a look of gratified glam and gloat.” -
