Laughter and tears in the kind works of Alexander Yanin (36 photos)

This master does not have any one favorite direction. The artist’s works contain a little realism, a little impressionism, surrealism and something else elusive. He himself gives the genre a short and succinct definition - “Ioannina”.





Alexander Eduardovich Yanin was born in the city of Artyom (Primorsky Territory) in 1958. In addition to his artistic education, Yanin also has a diploma in philosophy. Which probably helps the artist to better understand the nature of things, phenomena and people.

A sense of humor and self-irony make the author’s paintings touching, funny and full of special meaning.

Most often, the plots are sketches on everyday and everyday topics. On them, characters interact and do something. Or they don't do anything. But in any case, they arouse the viewer’s interest by telling their story with an invariably happy ending.

Alexander’s personal exhibitions were held both in our country and abroad. The artist's paintings are in private collections in various countries. Hollywood star Nicole Kidman even bought one for herself.

The popularity and interest from Yanina viewers is explained by the fact that the works meet the main criterion - they must be good:

I just can't stand evil pictures because the world is cruel enough as it is.
