From monumental public works gracing cityscapes worldwide to intimate, collectible pieces, Alexander’s work is characterized by its bold forms, rich symbolism, and a deep engagement with literature, music, and cultural history. His artistic language is both complex and approachable, seamlessly blending irony, pagan references, and a modernist flair.
His works have been showcased in prestigious venues, including the Central House of Artists and the Russian Academy of Arts in Moscow, the Nassau Museum of Art in the USA, and the Dielemann Gallery in Belgium. Notably, his creations are part of esteemed collections such as the Tretyakov Gallery, the Russian Museum, the Ludwig Museum, and international corporate collections like Siemens and Hermes.
Alexander’s sculptures are not confined by time or geography. His iconic public monuments, such as his tribute to Fyodor Dostoevsky in Moscow, reflect his ability to capture the essence of human achievement in grand, sweeping gestures. Yet, his smaller, experimental pieces showcase extraordinary modernist skill—each uniquely intricate and rich with unexpected perspectives, revealing new details from every angle.
At Rukav Studio, Alexander’s works are presented in a way that allows collectors and enthusiasts to experience his vision on a personal level. Many pieces are available in customizable formats, letting you select materials and sizes to suit your space. However, certain sculptures remain faithful to the artist’s original intent, preserving the purity of his creative vision.
