Bogomazov Alexander Konstantinovich (1880-1939) - Ukrainian Soviet artist, a prominent representative and theorist of the Russian avant-garde art, author of the treatise "Painting and Elements". Alexander Bogomazov was called "Ukrainian Picasso". Most of all, he showed himself in the field of cubo-futurism, in his short life he managed to leave not so many works. But he took not in quantity, but in quality, and after decades of oblivion due to the peculiarities of relations between the Soviet government and artists, it was rediscovered during the "thaw", having received well-deserved recognition both at home and abroad.

Having started his creative search with experiments with impressionist methods, he very soon became interested in the avant-garde of artistic thought in the field of futurism. In the last decade of his life, he became interested in working with color within the framework of spectralism, creating juicy, clean and overwhelming visual images.
