Aleksey Bazanov

about the artist

Born in Saratov in 1959, Aleksey graduated from the Bogolyubov Art College in Saratov and the Repin Institute for Painting, Sculpture and Architecture in Leningrad in 1978 and 1989 respectively. Academic training determined the areas of Aleksey’s artistic inquiry and his painting manner.

Bazanov’s canvases whose characters (primarily female) are usually seen against a dark, almost black, background are reminiscent of the classical portraits by Renaissance masters. The artist also works as a muralist, creating frescoes, stained glass and mosaic works.
