Artist Victor Mizovtsev
Victor
Nizovtsev was born in 1965 in Central Siberia, in the city of Ulan-Ude near
Lake Baikal. When Victor was a young 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 region’s wine country and 30 miles southeast of the capital of
Moldova, Chisinau.Victor’s 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. They can be equally viewed for their vibrant
textured colors that fill the canvas and contrast with the translucent glazes
that make the paintings dance with light and pull in those who view it. Victor
breathes life into each work inviting the viewer into the painting as a
separate universe, one filled with boldness, energy and rich hues.At age nine
he entered Kotovsk’s 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. In 1997 Victor
moved to the United States where he successfully continued pursuing his art
career. In 2004 Victor moved from Washington, D.C. to Maryland where he resides
with his wife and young daughter.In his short time in the United States Victor
has enjoyed a high degree of success, exhibiting in numerous solo and group
shows with collectors excited to find and acquire his unique and imaginative
paintings.
