About the Item

“Forgotten Bedroom” by Alexandra Rozenman is a playful oil painting on canvas measuring 50 x 48 x 2 inches in greens and blues with touches of red and yellow. You see a dark and stormy sky with a bright line of yellow sunset sharply crossing the horizon. A wide green field is reflecting the yellow light turning peaceful olive color. Diagonally across the painting, you see a train track with a grey train taking off. You can feel the motion and hear the whistle. It makes you wonder and asks questions giving you a few clues. A beautiful rug decorated in blue, orange and green flowers is on the bottom of the painting; it has been left behind and is now there for us to picnic, look at the stars, and wonder why this bedroom has been left behind. What has been forgotten is gathered into a small mountain of stuff on the tracks. A green chair, a dresser and a mirror (reflecting a night sky with stars and a moon), small side tables, an iron, striped blue and white mattress and bright red slippers are all there looking at us. Making us wonder who, why, where and how has left all that behind? Is that nostalgic memory, an immigrant story or a surreal dream? This painting is oil on canvas, initialed on the front and signed, titled and dated on the reverse. Thick 2 inch stretcher is painted grey on the sides. Alexandra Rozenman immigrated to America from the Soviet Union in 1989. Russian, European and American myths of national destiny and private identity take on a utopian dimension as she absorbs and expresses the psychology of otherness as fundamental aspects of her own identity. She wants her art to be like a well-worn military wool blanket that gives you warmth, love, and history. The artist states: “Whatever degree of abstraction defines my thinking and visual self-identification it has all to do with the search for my own image in a great existential sea of sweeping change”. Rozenman is represented by Fountain Street Gallery in Boston, MA.

  • "One-Way Ticket to Paris", landscape, abstract, blues, browns, oil painting
    By Alexandra Rozenman
    Located in Natick, MA
    Alexandra Rozenman’s “One-way to Paris” 16 x 20 x 2.5 oil on canvas painting is a part of her landscape series where she plays with reality and abstraction inside the familiar place. The painting is a well thought- through abstract painting that symbolizes both departure and arrival. The dramatic combination of blues and beautiful browns in geometrical interposition of forms gives us a feeling of going away, departure, speed, light, and serendipity filled with expectations and purifying beauty. The light of dreamy suns above the horizon is suddenly deep green and energizes and calms the senses at the same time. We wonder thinking about the future, a highway that magically finds a way to transform into one lonely Paris street light...

  • "Redon's Spirit", landscape, sky, blue, white, grey, green, oil painting
    By Alexandra Rozenman
    Located in Natick, MA
    Alexandra Rozenman’s “Redon’s Spirit” is a 36 x 24 x 2.5 oil painting on canvas. It is a part of her on-going series called “Beasts and Beauties”. Big and heavy sky filled with white and grey clouds, white moon and a flock of flying away birds fills two thirds of the painting creating a feeling of weight, time and an open space. There is a magic divider under it – something that is part umbrella, part inside-out tent, and part ships sails. It keeps us from something bad and powerful like a Devil’s Eye...
