In the recognizable curves of "Venus" by Alexey Kanis, the viewer will find similarities with the great "Venus of Milos," a masterpiece of realistic art of the Hellenic era. Kanis' sculpture belongs to his "Spines" series. Mysterious and refined in its brevity, the object masterfully combines impeccable realism and daring abstraction.
