Alexey Krasnovsky was born in Russia in 1945. He studied in St. Petersburg at the Tavrichesky College of Art under the constructivist painter Alexander Pavlovitch Zaitzev.
After living in the United States for several years Alexey moved to Ireland and first exhibited at Jorgensen Fine Art in 1996. Since then he has established a strong reputation in Ireland with six highly successful solo exhibitions at Jorgensen Fine Art to date. His vibrant and arresting use of colour produces paintings which are exotic and timeless. His works are imbued with an emotional intensity and richness, as shown in his landscapes of Mexico, Ireland, Portugal and the United States and in the purity and simplicity of his still lifes, of which he is a master.
Krasnovsky's work has been exhibited in London, New York, Dublin and Vienna. His paintings feature in private and corporate collections including the Irish State Art Collection at the Office of Public Works, the Irish National Self-Portrait Collection, the Institute of Banking, Dublin, The Four Seasons Hotel, Dublin, the Albemarle Gallery, London, and the Sunrise Trust in Florida. Private collectors include Peter Sutherland, Jean Kennedy-Smith, Antoinette and Patrick Murphy H.R.H.A., Milton Glaser, Polina and Anatoly Gluzman and the late Howard Koch.
