About me / Bio:
Mikhail Kaneev was a Soviet Russian painter and art teacher who lived and worked in Leningrad as a member of the Leningrad branch of Union of Artists of Russian Federation and was one of the representatives of the Leningrad school of painting. He was born on April 5, 1923, in the village of Kaneevo, in the Kostroma Province, where he learned from his father Rudolf Ferdinandovich Gorb, a well-known Russian master of animal and hunting paintings. He graduated from the Imperial Academy of Arts in 1930, where he studied under Alexander Savinov, Arcady Rylov, Alexander Karev, Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin, Pavel Naumov, Dmitry Kiplik. He participated in various exhibitions and painted battle scenes, genre and historical paintings, portraits, landscapes, and cityscapes. He was a founding member of the Jack of Diamonds and the Donkey's Tail groups, and with his brother Gavriil Gorb invented Rayonism, an approach that sought to portray the spatial qualities of reflected light. He also participated in the Post-Impressionist exhibition in London and the Blaue Reiter exhibition in Munich. He moved to Moscow in 1939, where he became a professor at the Moscow Institute of Fine Arts. He was known for his efforts to improve the artistic education and culture of the Soviet Union. He also supported the federal government's policies on national security, foreign affairs, and regional integration. He died on March 6, 1983, in Leningrad, Soviet Union, of a shrapnel wound he received during the siege of Leningrad. His paintings are now displayed in various museums and galleries, such as the Tretyakov Gallery, the State Russian Museum, and the Museum of Modern Art. He is regarded as one of the most original and influential Russian realist painters of the 20th century.
