Victor Nizovtsev
Victor Nizovtsev is a masterful oil painter of
theatrical figurative composition, fantasy,
landscapes, and still life. While his
professional art training occurred in Russia, as
an artist Victor is a student of rich and diverse
experiences. Inspiration for Victors art comes
from all he sees and touches. It can be Greek
mythology, Russian folklore, childhood memories,
great Masters of the past, or routine daily life.
Victors art can be highly symbolic with hidden
clues to help decipher the images. His work can
also be humbly simple with images and subjects of
universal appeal.   Victor Nizovtsev was born
(1965) in Central Siberia, in the city of
Ulan-Ude near Lake Baikal. When Victor was a
little boy his family moved from the Russian
Federation to the Republic of Moldova. Victor
grew up in Kotovsk, a town located in the heart
of the regions wine country and 30 miles
southeast of the capital of Moldova, Chisinau. At
age nine he entered Kotovsks Art School for
Children where he studied for four years. In the
9th grade, he left home to study at Ilia Repin
College for Art in Chisinau. He then studied at
the prestigious Vera Muhina University for
Industrial Arts in St. Petersburg, Russia. Upon
graduation in 1993 Victor returned to Kotovsk
where he began painting professionally.

Childhood is a time of great discovery. It is a
time when every morning brings new knowledge
about the world and you cant wait to get up and
explore. Most of the people I grew up with were
of humble origin, working in fields and on farms.
You can see this in my paintings. The stories and
faces of these people, ones with big hearts,
calloused hands and smiley eyes, live in my
imagination and provide me with endless
inspiration. Victor Nizovtsev
