Andrey P. Pashkevich

Andrey Petrovich Pashkevich was born in 1945 in the family of an art director, Petr I. Pashkevich, working at the film studios named after M. Gorky and professor at the Faculty of Art at the All Russian Institute of Cinematography named after S. Gerasimov, where Andrey Pashkevich finished his studies and obtained his diploma as cameraman and cinematographer.

As a Director of Photography he took part in the shooting of several feature films, amongst which some very well-known and still popular films such as “I still love, I still hope” («Еще люблю, еще надеюсь») and “We lived in the neighbourhood” («Мы жили по соседству») and also a number of documentary films such as “My friend, Otar Ioseliani” («Мой друг, Отар Иоселиани»).

In the 1990s Pashkevich created his own TV company “The Russian Musical Television” (RMTV) which produced musical programmes and series for Russian TV-channels.

At the same time he was actively painting.

The culminating point of the artistic heritage of Andrey Pashkevich is a series of paintings which the author himself called “Politecology” and which he has created during the period of Gorbachev's perestroika and the formation of the new Russia. It reflects the political and social turmoil that shook up the life of people in Russia. Love for his country and compassion for its people is an outstanding feature of Pashkevich's art. His “Politecology” has a purifying meaning. It is a tale about the suffering and bitter moments of Russian history that contains a warning and at the same time may be considered as a futuristic prophecy, a healing elixir and a very specific kind of catharsis.

Apart from the creations of these symbolic and very thoroughly thought over paintings about life influenced by political events, the painter also created abstract works, which are highly appreciated by art critics.

Andrey Pashkevich was a member of the International Federation of Artists (IFA).

The works of the artist are to be found in private collections, amongst which the collections of George Bush the Elder, the Richard Nixon Library in the US, and countries such as France, Portugal, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Finland, South Korea.
