Tony Zhuravel (; born 19 March 1963), alternatively known as Anatoly Zhuravel, is a Belarusian contemporary artist. In 1997, he became a member of Belarusian Union of Artists.
Zhuravel's painting style incorporates a layering effect, interleaving textures and, blending colour to create a subjective atmosphere within his imagery. He uses unpredictable palettes, a spectrum of colour which became a distinctive attribute of his work. His abstract western landscapes experiment with this concept of the horizon; austere western prairie bonded with a shifting sky. His works often depict western prairies with shifting skies, emphasising layered colour and intricate atmospheric effects. All the consequences of an unaffected invention that results from intuitive strokes on the canvas.
In 2009, Zhuravel represented Belarus at Venice Bienalle â The most famous and ambitious abstract painting in which Zhuravel exemplified his free-expressionist techniques is âÂÂAugustâÂÂ. Zhuravel and Alex Salaueu are prominent representatives of the Vitebsk Art School, founded by Marc Chagall and Kazimir Malevich.
