Anatoly Metlan was born in 1964 in Yalta, a city in the southern Ukraine on the northern coast of the Black Sea. Metlan’s interest in art developed at a young age, the child of two parents who both experimented in art themselves. He pursued a formal education to hone his skills, graduating from the local high school of the arts in 1985 and going on to study at the Krivoi Rog University in Ukraine. Metlan began exhibiting his work while in college and he soon began gaining notoriety among the area art community, accepted to the Artists Guild of the Ukraine in 1989. After the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, Metlan and his family immigrated to Israel where they continue to live. Metlan enjoys traveling during the summer to Italy and France, capturing the warmth, light, and bold, vibrant color in the seascapes and villages of their coastal regions. Metlan’s work has been exhibited around the world, including France, Israel, and throughout the United States. He has participated in Art Expos in New York (1999), Los Angeles (2000) and San Francisco (2000). His work is eagerly collected by art lovers worldwide, especially on cruise ships. More recently, Metlan has focused on depicting dancers, musicians, and gypsies. In his paintings of dancers, Metlan emphasizes sensual tango poses, forever capturing moments of energy, emotion, and drama.Full of passion, these paintings draw upon Metlan’s memories of attending flamenco concerts in southern Europe.“I was captivated by the dramatic suspended tension and the emotional expressiveness of dance moves,” Metlan says. “It has become an impulse of inspiration for a new period, a new phase of my art.”In describing his technique for capturing the female figure, Metlan says he begins with an image formed in his mind, then sets up a composition using a model. He begins coloring the image with a brush, followed by strokes with a palette knife to emphasize the dancer’s movements.Metlan says he often sets a painting aside before completing it so he can approach it from a different angle and mood. Metlan will make several changes to a work until he is satisfied.
