Since 1960, he became a participant in Moscow, all Union and International exhibitions. More than 70 of his personal exhibitions were held in different countries. He works on second order associations, immersing the viewer in the world of allusions and metaphors, forcing them to rethink well known motifs. Angels, birds, trees, figures are the main characters of the artist’s works; they contain his soul and essence. Created in an abstract manner, they feel more real than the material world. One of a kind artwork.
