Alexander Rumyantsev
about the artist
Alexander Rumyantsev was born in Leningrad in 1951 and graduated from the School of Painting of the Repin Institute for Painting, Sculpture and Architecture (class of Professor Andrey Mylnikov). He currently lives and works in Germany.
Rumyantsev’s painterly manner can be categorised as lyrical Expressionism. The artist paints misty embankments and broad avenues, provincial backyards and curving canals, railway tracks and rundown apartment interiors. His take on the prosaic country and urban landscapes makes them appear effortless, their every unpredictably twisting line readily following the painter’s brush.
