Igor Berezovsky

Elena Vsevolodovna Chernevich, and outstanding graphic design scholar and historian, played an important role in Igor Berezovsky's life and art.

Designer scene at the end of sixties and the beginning of seventies was fueled with a passionate interest towards Western pop and conceptual art.

He not only received outstanding designer education, but also acquired a clear understanding of modern art.

The artist's individual manner fully matures in his still life pictures: early, simple and frankly daring.

His artistic thinking avoids literature, not inclined towards symbolism, doesn't employ implications and underlying messages.

He was interested in the texture of TV images ("TV Parallels", 1974–77); reproduced photos from magazines and, using large dot patterns, almost eliminated them ("Reproacts", 1981); employed original textures using "stuff" at hand; paraphrased Jean-Michel Folon and Dibbets, Warhol and Dürer.
