About the Item

“Stepping Forward” by Alexandra Rozenman is a large horizontal 58 x 26 x 3 inch oil on canvas, which by the way it is structured, gives us an illusion of the two worlds, maybe past and future. Deep blue skies and waters inhabit the painting creating a comfortable landscape of the unknown but welcoming place. On the left part of the painting we see a mysterious couple of a feathery white bird with two legs and two arms holding and leading a human that holds a red bucket in her hands. Her feet in the water the human is dressed in a costume of a tree. Nature, love, understanding, friendship, fragility are all represented in this two figures. They are moving slowly to another side of the canvas, which is a combination of the inside and the outside. Blue and yellow flowers look at our two creatures hoping that they will make it to another side. This large painting is initialed on the bottom on the front and signed and dated on the reverse. 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...
