"Compressed Museum. Mona Lisa" is a 2017 painting by Ukrainian artist Alexander Roitburd. Roitburd's work often utilizes appropriation, reimagining iconic works of art in a unique, contemporary style. In this painting, Roitburd replicates Leonardo da Vinci's famous "Mona Lisa" with a compressed, distorted perspective, creating a humorous and unsettling effect. This recontextualization of a canonical artwork is characteristic of Roitburd's playful and provocative approach to art history.
