About the artist, Olga Rozanova
1886–1918, Russia
Olga Rozanova
A Life Illuminated: The Pioneering Vision of Olga Rozanova Olga Vladimirovna Rozanova, a name resonating with increasing force in the annals of 20th-century art, was a Russian avant-garde artist whose tragically short life belied an astonishingly prolific and innovative career. Born in 1886 in Melenki, Russia, to a family steeped in both civic duty – her father was a district police officer – and religious tradition through her Orthodox priest grandfather, Rozanova’s path diverged from convention as she pursued the burgeoning world of modern art in Moscow. After graduating from the Vladimir Women's Gymnasium in 1904, she immersed herself in artistic training, first at the Bolshakov Art School under Nikolai Ulyanov and sculptor Andrey Matveev, then auditing courses at the Stroganov School of Applied Art and finally honing her skills in Konstantin Yuon’s private studio. These formative years laid the groundwork for a restless exploration that would see her navigate and contribute to some of the most radical artistic movements of her time.
