Contemporary Talents Winter GALLERY2005-2006RUSSIApresents
Today, we are pleased to present eight “next generation” painters whom we feel embody the best of classical Russian realism and impressionism. They all have impeccable credentials and enjoy success in their own countries and abroad. It should be noted that more than a handful of them can trace a teaching lineage back to Ilya Repin (Fechin’s teacher) himself and, therefore, it should be no wonder they all take their responsibility of preserving the classical tradition seriously. We are now confident the best way to fully appreciate and understand art of the Soviet Period is to show it alongside works of talented contemporary painters—to understand its future influence and not just its roots.

It was five years ago that we first began to carry works by Alexander Kremer. Internally, it was a monumental decision to make our first move away from the core of the “Soviet Generation”—or, “old art” as we and our clients liked to call it. Needless to say, our clients enjoyed Kremer’s paintings as much as we did, and the search was on to find more great young painters.
We hope you enjoy this “sampling” of works by these fine artists.

Kremer was born in the small town of Repino, Russia on the Gulf of Finland. Both his father and grandfather were respected painters in St. Petersburg and were great influences on him. He graduated from the Mukhina Art Institute in 1982 and was a student of some well-known Soviet painters such as Andrei Mylnikov and Petr Fomin. He has participated in exhibitions in Russia, Finland, Germany, France, Greece, Japan and the United States.

He attended the Odessa Art College and, following his military service, realized a dream when he was accepted at the Repin Institute in St. Petersburg. He graduated from the studio of Yuri Neprintsev in which he firmly mas tered what he calls “graphic expression.”
