Demianenko Volodymyr

Volodymyr Demianenko (born 10 May 1960) is the chief artist-designer of the Mint of the National Bank of Ukraine, an artist and sculptor whose work is tied to the visual language of modern Ukrainian numismatics. His museum profile records both this position and his authorship of the officially approved logo of the NBU Mint; it also notes his work on more than 50 commemorative and jubilee coins, including Scythian Gold and Black Vulture.

For UA Coins, Demianenko is one of the most productive authors in the catalog: his name is connected with more than 400 coins and numismatic issues from 1998 to 2026, most often as sculptor and in a number of issues also as artist. The NBU separately names him and Roman Chaikovskyi as the sketch authors of the new circulating 1- and 2-hryvnia coins, so his contribution is connected not only with commemorative numismatics, but also with Ukraine’s everyday coinage.

Works that show Demianenko’s range include the circulating commemorative coin Final Tournament of the 2012 UEFA European Football Championship, for which he was the artist of both sides and sculptor of the obverse; the coins Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, Azovka, Ukrainian Bush Cricket and Stipa Ucrainica; and issues such as Marbled Polecat, Tetiana Yablonska, Dmytro Bortnianskyi, Department of State Security of Ukraine, Air Defence – Ukraine’s Reliable Shield and Chornobyl.
