Giving Back - Introducing Alexey





Alexey Lushnikov
Artist Extraordinaire

     I have the distinct pleasure and honor to introduce Alexey Lushnikov, French Russian Artist.  

      After a distinguished journalism career in St. Petersburg Russia, Alexey currently spends his time raising his daughter as a single father and developing his art portfolio.

Studied at the British Royal School of Fine Arts
Studied at Leningrad University
Russian-French Artist
Alexey’s love of art started at a young age long before his distinguished TV Journalism career began.
He has an appreciation for all great people.   In particular his greatest muse is found in the works of Leonardo Da Vinci.
His  inquisitive nature and intellect delves into the state of nature and civilization with impeccable insight.  Rendering depictions in its raw, untapped state, without pretense or planning.

Finding Meaning

     After spending some time in the UK, Alexey debuted as an artist in the early 2000’s. The main theme of the Alexey’s works is a declaration of love for the Basque Country, where he spent ten years living in the Metropolitan area of the French city of Biarritz. Many of the paintings became a kind of anthem of 
     the Basque Country, of its natural landscape and urban environment. The paintings reveal Basque’s everyday life and national traditions. The artwork organically transmits character and the will of the proud Basque people which is reminiscent of Oscar Claude Monet who felt the study of the French country side could be rendered through the voice of a canvas one moment at a time.
     With a gentle glance instantly you will fall in love with the lush verdant hills, colorful landscapes and playful architecture.  Each painting has within itself a world that you become mesmerized, even lost.  Scenes depict the nuances of local life at any given moment. An instant snapshot held in time with a brush, canvas and skillful application of paint.
26869446_333731547144936_4423630536069611520_nSince the mid 2000-s Alexey’s artwork have been exhibited at 11 personal exhibitions in Russia, France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands and other countries. Alexey’s work has repeatedly participated in various exhibitions and fairs in Russia and abroad. The two most recent were “Biarritz. 2013 “- was held in France in the summer of 2013 and opening day “Ogni” was held in London on June 26, 2015.

The latest venture is to break into the US, Australia and British markets.  We all know as entrepreneurs breaking into a market is not easy and having significant help can facilitate such an ambition.  

Catalog

     Artwork shown in his Basque Country catalog utilize the oil on canvas medium in a simple art style emphasizing sincerity and strong feelings towards the Basque Country and its people.
