Aleksander Shlepyanov

Alexander Ilyich Shlepyanov (Russian: Александр Ильич Шлепянов; 9 September 1933 – 19 December 2016), was a film script writer and art expert.

After graduating from Leningrad University, Shlepyanov worked as a journalist, TV presenter, and script writer.

In 1988 he helped organize an exhibition at the Barbican in London called "100 Years of Russian Art", which included some of his own collection.

This was the first time that works of the 1920s from private collections had been seen in public for 70 years.

From 2000 to 2003 Shlepyanov edited and published the Russian language magazine Kololol.
