Reclusive Artist Alexander Aizenshtat Exhibits at Moscow Museum of Modern Art

MOSCOW.- The “Spectrum of life” exhibition by Alexander Aizenshtat will be on view in the Moscow Museum of Modern Art at Tverskoy Boulevard from January 15. His name is not widely known to the public, since the master deliberately avoids active exhibition activities. The renunciation of success and vanity is the artist’s policy. The wonderful phenomenon of the master lies in the unique “space of silence”, surrounding his whole oeuvre. Not only because the talent of Aizenshtat demands silence and concentration from the viewer. Perception of his genre paintings receives a philosophic aspect. Regardless of the plot, the ontological importance, correlation with the highest principle is perceptible in them.
