[edit] Works and Reception

Alexander Roitburd is one of the brightest artists of the southern New Wave. His Paintings are practically always mythological, and his images, are archetypical. The Project "lady in White", inspired by Titian and exhibited in 1993, didn´t suffer from the lack of a rich element of Phantasy based on plastic forms. However the dominance of the surreal kept them within the organic limits of an integral, yet subsidiary evolution. Roitburd never compromised his talent as a painter, rather he strived to change or, as the Greeks used to say - "to transform personal style". Recent Paintings by him are characterized by rejection of sarcasm and dramatism. Conflict disappears from the Plot, giving way to slight irony and intimacy.
