Alexander Lozovoy is the only modern artist today who took lessons directly from several of the well known Russian avant-garde artists. His principal teacher was Barbara Bubnova (1886 - 1983), who worked and participated in exhibitions together with V. Kandinsky, K. Malevich, P. Filonov, A. Rodchenko among other famous Russian painters of this epoch. In his paintings Lozovoy uses some techniques and secrets inherited from the old Russian icon school. His canvases are painted by the application of tiny brushstrokes of different colors which do not merge together thus producing the general effect of extreme brightness and clarity. Since the chemical elements of the pigments do not interact with each other the natural colors are fully preserved in his works. Some of the materials he uses are made from extracts of oak bark, as used by the monks who illustrated Russian manuscripts in the middle ages. |
