46 (2917) Painting by Leo Altshuler

Leonid Altshuler: Artist Statement

 Art is an expression of ones innermost self. Self-expression frees the soul and allows it to soar beyond the common place which in turn brings about true creativity. My painting comes about fast and furiously which I attribute to the theory of left to right brain transformation. My background and education have brought me to a point of being able to paint without boundaries. I see a world of abstract shapes and color and interpret my vision on canvas. In some cases, my work has a degree of spirituality while other times it can be representational but you can always read into my symbolic nature and the clues I paint into my work.

 Leonid Altshuler: Biography

Leonid Altshuler was born in St Petersburg, Russia, where he grew up and completed medical school.
Leonid developed a passion for expressing himself through painting with acrylics. He relates it to his trip to Siberia, where he visited a scientific center that investigates how Kozyrev mirrors can influence human perception of space and time. There he participated personally in the research conducted by prominent Russian physicists. This experience stimulated his creativity.
 Veteran artists have praised Leonid’s painting, which are abstract expressionist works of breathtaking vibrant colors conveying deep meaning. His art has a cosmic effect on the viewer, causing immediate emotional engagement as well as an intellectual response. Once captivated by the energy of the canvas, the colors and symbols take on energy of their own. The prints are thought provoking and compelling. The originals are available at exceptional value through the artist.
