Alexander Khomsky is a Russian-born artist based in the United States. He began painting as a child and studied at the Stroganoff Institute of Decorative and Applied Arts in Moscow, where, according to his official biography, he earned a Master of Fine Arts degree.
Following his formal education, Khomsky worked as an interior designer and mural artist. He subsequently joined the Moscow Union of Graphic Artists, an organization associated with nonconformist and experimental art during the Soviet era.
His international career gained momentum in 1989 when he participated in Bonn–Moscow: Russian Vanguard Art in Bonn, Germany. The following year, Gallery Doll in Kötzting, Germany, presented a solo exhibition of his work.
Seeking greater artistic freedom, Khomsky moved to the United States in the 1990s. Published biographies identify his residence as Arlington, Massachusetts. His official website records more than 60 solo and group exhibitions across the United States, Canada, and Europe.
His visual language combines symbolic figuration, dreamlike imagery, and references to Russian icon painting. His work explores the relationships between everyday life and dreams, religion and consumer culture, and the natural and imagined worlds. Alongside oil painting, his practice includes sculpture and photocollage.
