Lena Hades ( _ru. Лена Хейдиз) (born October 2, 1959) is a Russian artist, writer and art theorist.

She has created more than 40 works, all oil paintings and watercolors dedicated to Nietzsche's book "Also Sprach Zarathustra".

An edition of "Also Sprach Zarathustra" that included 20 Hades paintings from the cycle was published in 2004 in Russian and German by the Institute of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

The works of the artist are in the State Tretyakov Gallery, the Moscow Museum of Modern Art, the National Center for Contemporary Arts, the State Pushkin Museum, and others. The oil painting and graphic cycle "Also Sprach Zarathustra" was exhibited at the First Moscow Biennale of contemporary art.

Other works

A complete contrast to the above works is the autobiographical series "the girl with bows, the woman that mows. the dance" which are personal revelations of the artist herself. It is here that the bright image of the girl reveals a polysemantic world of the name hades, the English spelling of the name of Hades, the antique god (Aides, Αιδης) who is the master of the dead. But the hell of Hades is not associated either with the antique or the Christian world, it is sooner connected with that of Nietzsche’s one: "even god possesses his hell – which is his love to people". "The girl with bows, the woman that mows. the dance" becomes the culmination of the series. "The dance" around pagan bonfires - the right became owned to communicate equally with the beyond. The initiation with fire that transforms and tempers the spirit is completed. There is no more fright. The terror of death has been overcome and it gives an ability to possess the sacred theme that suggested trepidation in the past. Lena Hades assimilates with stalker where the boundaries of two worlds meet each other.
