Art & Light - Genna Grushovenko

Art & Light | Anchorage Exhibition Series

Genna Grushovenko

Art & Light Gallery and The Anchorage Restaurant are happy to announcea solo exhibition of work by Greenville, S.C. artist Genna Grushovenko on view at The Anchorage in the Village of West Greenville from October 7, 2025 - January 6, 2026. The Anchorage Exhibition Series brings art beyond the walls of Art & Light Gallery to offer an immersive experience that fuses culinary and visual arts. 

Gennadiy Grushovenko is a mixed media artist with over 30 years of studio art practice. His artistic journey began in Kyiv, Ukraine, continued in LaGrange, Georgia, and ultimately landed in Greenville. Chief among Genna’s many inspirations are the primal use of color and a visceral, spontaneous approach to creation that often characterizes abstract expressionism. 

Recently Genna has begun a new abstract body of work using painting techniques he modified and honed while painting with his wife and collaborator, Signe Grushovenko for the past twenty-plus years. He almost never uses paint brushes, instead relying on his hands and improvised tools to facilitate unique mark making and paint flow. He is creating pieces that explore fluidity and unpredictability by allowing the paint to move and take its own form on the canvas.

Join Genna Grushovenko for an intimate artist talk on Wednesday, November 19 from 5:00-6:30 PM. Enjoy a signature cocktail by mixologist Mills Higgins along with Chef Zurkey curated small bites inspired by Genna’s paintings. Ticket sales are limited with 25 spaces available. Visit The Anchorage to purchase tickets for the event. While Genna’s exhibition is on view at The Anchorage restaurant, work included in the show is available for purchase through Art & Light Gallery.
