Florian Yuriev

Actor

Florian Yuriev, primarily known in Ukraine, was a multifaceted artist, architect, and designer rather than a conventional actor or film director. He is renowned for his work in visual and performance arts, particularly his contribution to Kyiv's modernist architecture and for his experiments in the synthesis of arts, combining architecture, music, painting, and sculpture. He is best known for the "Kyiv Flying Saucer" or UFO building, which became a notable landmark. Though he wasn't directly involved in filmmaking, his work influenced various forms of visual and cultural expression in Ukraine.
