About Alexander Shvyrkov

Hi, my name is Alexander Shvyrkov. 

When I was young I studied art in a couple of private art schools. However, later I quit painting and devoted myself to science and philosophy (PhD in philosophy).

8 years ago I felt the desire for art again. Since then I have been regularly engaged in painting, drawing, sculpture.

Like many artists I began from figurative art (you can see some of such my works in my shop). However, soon I realized that figurative art is not enough for me, that it is not enough for me to just portray what already exists.

So I came to abstract painting.

But it does not mean that I quit figurative painting. It means that I have reached a new level.

My works are in private collections in the USA, Great Britain, Russia, Canada, Netherlands, Hong Kong.
