"1992" Σταύρωση Νο 3 is a 1996 unspecified by Vladimir Velickovic, a transavanguardia work, held at Metropolitan Organisation of Museums of Visual Arts of Thessaloniki – MOMus.
This painting shows a figure hanging from a cross, arms spread wide. The body is dark, almost shadowy, with rough brushstrokes that make the skin look uneven. A small patch of light comes through a narrow window above, casting a thin glow on the figure’s face. The background is a mix of warm browns and reds, with streaks of paint that feel messy and raw. The artist used thick layers of paint in some spots, making the surface feel textured. This technique is called *impasto*—where paint is laid on so heavily you can almost see it. Next, look up impasto to see how other artists used it.
