About the artist:
Anatole Krasnyansky (born in 1930; Kiev, Ukraine) is a Ukrainian-American artist who has gained prominence by pioneering a new watercolor technique.

Anatole Krasnyansky
is a contemporary American-Ukrainian artist, best known for his watercolors and cityscapes. His work conflates themes of music, theater, architecture, and culture through colorful figurations set in non-Euclidean space. Born in 1930 in Kiev, Ukraine, Krasnyansky earned his master’s in architecture and fine art before emigrating from the Soviet Union in 1975 to pursue his career in Los Angeles, CA. His structural aesthetic is shaped by his previous work as an architect, as well as having served as a scenic artist in the theater industries. Notably, Krasnyansky developed a unique process of textural watercolor painting, where his paper works reference Eastern culture and heritage through color relationships and architectural features. Currently living and working in Los Angeles, CA, Krasnyansky has exhibited internationally, including at institutions such as Stanford University in Palo Alto and at the University of Los Angeles.
