Alexandra Averbach

Born: 1981, Russia

Born in Moscow, Russia, Alexandra Averbach immigrated to the United States as a child and currently resides in New York City. From an early age, art has been an important part of Averbach’s life and her parents have always supported her desire to create.

She initially pursued a career in the financial sector. However, after completing a Master’s degree in Art History with a focus on 17th-century Dutch and Flemish art, Averbach was drawn back to painting and subsequently pursued a career as a professional artist.

Alexandra Averbach is continuously inspired and awed by the beauty of nature. Flowers and cups are her favourite, and she paints them with a degree of minimalism and precision highlighting the beauty of each individual detail. Filled with crisp colours and bright lights, Averbach’s work conveys a sense of stillness as if time is suspended within the painting. Her playful cups and beautifully arranged flower bouquets capture a moment in time that bursts from the canvas and awakens the viewer’s senses.
