ALEX KUZNETSOV

"Artists who have nurtured the interaction with the creative energy present in the nature of street art, hold much potential to transpire their work into the field of fine art."

Born in 1978 in Minsk, Belarus, his mother’s family rooted in Vitebsk, Alex Kuznetsov was attracted to painting from early childhood years. He became a graphic designer, then discovered spray paint in 1997; thus, he began his journey in the world of street art. Signed with the nicknames of Liquid, Ners, Awek, Temos and Monk, his tags soon became well-known all over post-Soviet territories and Europe. On a visit to a Hong Kong commercial gallery in 2010, an enormous bright-red canvas captivated his imagination and impressed Alex with the power of pure colour. Later in the same year, news of the Moscow metro bombing caught Alex on his balcony, staring at five canvases that a friend had left behind. Alex unpacked his sprays and started exploring a new direction. He never stopped. 

 

Alex Kuznetsov collaborates extensively with publications, brands and private institutions such as Vogue, AD Magazine, Absolut, Tumi, Adidas and Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation. His solo exhibitions were held in Lida Historical and Art Museum, National Palace of Art and National Center for Contemporary Arts of the Republic of Belarus, Triumph Gallery Moscow, Museum of Moscow, MSK Eastside Gallery in Moscow, Speerstra Gallery in Switzerland and France, Mirus Gallery in San Francisco, USA. His work has been shown and collected worldwide, including in New York, San Francisco, London, Seoul, Hong Kong, Brussels, Geneva, Paris, Monaco, Barcelona, Moscow and Minsk.
