Original artwork description
WORLDWIDE SHIPPING. Due to the war, russia started against my country, the international delivery can take about two to three weeks.
The item will be shipped rolled in a dent-resistant tube. This method is particularly safe for large-scale works and helps to reduce shipping costs. Rolled artworks can be easily stretched onto wooden stretcher bars by a local framer upon arrival.
About the artwork
This contemporary artwork is a modified soviet-era oil portrait of Lenin. The artwork is sold unstretched and shipped rolled in a dent-resistant tube. The canvas is old and a little damaged. It is signed, titled, and dated on the back.
In my art project, I try to overcome the traumatic historical experience of my country by recycling propaganda artifacts of the soviet evil empire. It would be wrong to destroy these numerous images left after the USSR collapsed. It is important for people to remember the lessons of history to avoid repeating past mistakes. I want my recycled lenins to be more than just colorful pieces of art. Instead, they should serve as a reminder and a warning to never give political power to fanatics and mad people.
PLEASE NOTE: The buyer will be responsible for paying international customs fees, determined by the country the artwork is being shipped to. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to making a purchase.
