Vladimir Aldoshin

Vladimir Aldoshin was born in 1951 in Bryansk, where his still lives and works. Having graduated from the Penza Art College, he has been teaching at the Bryansk Municipal Children’s Art School since 1988.

Aldoshin’s artistic practice blends Primitivism, Minimalism, Fauvism, and abstract art with various current trends. His imagery is born out of creative improvisation informed by intuition. At times it might seem that the artist’s works are extremely simple, as he mostly paints the mundane: landscapes, still lifes, interiors – in other words, everything that constantly surrounds us. However, his exceptional gift of a colourist allows him to create a harmonious chromatic environment, liberating his paintings from the rough ambivalence of the daily human existence.
