Victor Molev (Canada) "Heavenly Coelacanth" 2023 76x61cm Oil on canvas.
It is true that in the clouds floating across the sky you can easily see the outlines of fish. And in the geometry of the scaly cover of the fish, it is not very difficult to imagine a fabulous city. And if this city is from the universe created by the Canadian fairy tale painter Viktor Molev, then we cannot but notice the influence on the author of one of his teachers, the great Maurits Escher! And looking at Escher ..... But here, dear audience, we should stop, because contact with Escher can take us to infinity, from where not everyone can return to normal life. The author of this work could not return ...

Victor Molev is a contemporary award-winning Canadian artist. He is working in the styles of Decorative Realism, Fantasy, Symbolism and Surrealism. In the mid-1970s, as an aspiring young artist, he took drawing and painting lessons under the apprenticeship of Moscow sculptor Tatyana Vishnyakova. But it wasn’t until his early twenties that Molev became familiar with the works of Salvador Dali, Max Ernst, Rene Magritte, M.C. Escher and Frank Frazetta through books and magazines. Molev was incredibly inspired by these artists which became like mentors to him. 

After receiving an education in architecture, the artist worked in the field for ten years. He then worked as a set designer at the Pushkin Opera and Ballet Theater. Both of these jobs are still reflected in the creative processes of the artist. He has created his own unique and intuitive world of dreams and absurdity. His works are sincerely naive and kind. 

Victor Molev was born in 1955, in Gorky, Russia. His works were exhibited all over the world, including the Art Museum of Saint-Frajou, France. Molev has also participated in numerous international competitions of humorous drawing, and won numerous silver and bronze medals.


The Artist was highlighted in an article in Artmajeur Magazine:
