Nikolai Androsov
about the artist
Nikolai was born in 1949 in Michurinsk, Tambov Oblast. In 1976, he graduated from the Moscow College of Art and Design.
Blending certain features of naïve art with elements of Fauvism and Expressionism and adopting some of Henri Matisse’s artistic methods, Androsov created paintings, art prints, wooden sculptures, clay toys, and woven tapestries. His oeuvre is stylistically diverse and steeped in folk culture.
The artist passed away in November 2015, leaving behind an astonishing body of work.
