Birds have a bunch of advantages over other inhabitants of the planet. For example mobility and the ability to fly. But there are also disadvantages. Deeply, I did not delve into this. Maybe there are not so many. But here's the question that arises when I see any bird. Why are you so tense? Why is your look full of anxiety, and your facial[...]
Birds have a bunch of advantages over other inhabitants of the planet. For example mobility and the ability to fly.
But there are also disadvantages. Deeply, I did not delve into this. Maybe there are not so many. But here's the question that arises when I see any bird. Why are you so tense? Why is your look full of anxiety, and your facial expression betrays your insecurity and nervousness?
Not so simple in the bird kingdom.

I still paint my oil paintings on canvas. Using all sorts of tricky methods of applying paint. But it’s interesting to you.
I put all my energy into my paintings. I try to fill them with harmony and positive to the brim.
I do not always succeed, but I always work on it.

For each painting, I personally write out a certificate of origin.

Igor Andrianov, known as Shulman, is a contemporary Russian painter based in Prague. He is the most acclaimed living figurative artist from Eastern Europe. For Shulman, who enjoys experimenting with a variety of subject matter and painting styles, creativity is essential. He took inspiration from a variety of art movements and used pieces from several of them to construct new, wholly original works. In several of his paintings, he uses a vibrant, vivid background that strips the scene of all other elements in order to draw our attention to the subject. Shulman takes characters from everyday life and references the school of realism to create paintings that are both inventive and creative while also being highly realistic.

Igor Andrianov Shulman was born in 1959, in Russia, where he graduated from the Art College named after A.G.Venezianov. He has been living and working in Prague since 1999; he considers it as the place that inspires artists the most. Shulman has exhibited his works in galleries, museums, and international art fairs. His works are part of private collections in more than 50 countries, including the UK, USA, Canada, China, Brazil.
