Small Talk 1990

"Small Talk" (1990) is a painting by Ukrainian artist Oleg Holosiy (1965-1993), known for his bold and sometimes controversial work. This piece portrays two figures with exaggerated features and elongated limbs, engaging in a conversation marked by the word "хуй" (a vulgar Russian word) appearing in speech bubbles. Holosiy's work often explored themes of social commentary and the complexities of human interaction, challenging conventional norms and inviting viewers to contemplate the nature of communication.
