Simon Faibisovich

Simon Faibisovich (Born 1949) is active/lives in Russian Federation.  Simon Faibisovich is known for Painting.

Semyon Faibisovich is known as a Russian painter, prose-writer and journalist . A sharp, ironic style is used to depict the paradoxes of Russia's newly-born democracy and the metamorphoses going on in the political, social and everyday urban life. In the 80s, Faibisovich was one of Russia's "unofficial painters," meaning that his work was not accepted by the Soviet government as officially sanctioned art. After Gorbachev's reforms, it was possible for Russian nonconformist art to enter the international art arena, which is when this painting was purchased for the Castellani collections. However, Faibisovich, like many other Russian artists, had deep ambivalence about this final "acceptance" of his work into the commercial arena. As this painting shows, Faibisovich is known for his grim portrayals of average Soviet citizens. Recently, the artist has turned to using actual photography instead of a photorealist painting style.
