Mykola Havrylovych Shmatko (Ukrainian: Микола Гаврилович Шматько) (born 17 August 1943 in Krasnohorivka) is a contemporary Ukrainian sculptor and painter. He was born in the Donetsk region of Ukraine.[1]

Shmatko became a sculptor at the age of 33, having previously been a firefighter.[2] He works in marble, inspired by European culture and art. His studio and gallery contain 100 sculptures (more than 70 of which are made of Ural and Italian marble); 30 plaster casts; and about 300 pictures (including paintings, graphics, and architectural designs). In total, there are approximately 750 pieces, ranging from simple decorations to bas-relief and high relief busts and sculptures.[3] Some of these pieces are sexually explicit.[4][5]

Shmatko also works in architecture, and has a design for a penis-shaped high-rise building.[6]

In 2000, Shmatko was appointed a Professor in the Arts Department by the Moscow Institute of World Civilization.[7]

In the fall of 2012, at the invitation of Lugansk oligarch Viktor Baloha,[9] Shmatko moved with his family to the city of Mukachevo.[10][11]

On January 18, 2013, Shmatko nominated himself for the Nobel Peace Prize.[12]
