Igor Gubsky was born in 1954 in Ukraine, and already at the beginning of the 70s of the last century was one of the most discussed and brightest artists of that time.

At that time, friends and classmates called the young artist “Velazquez” At that time, this nickname was given to him for a reason, he brilliantly knows how to translate field impressions into images - sharp, characteristic, recognizable, expressive. His sense of the human soul, the inherent ability to sharply characterize types, create a vivid, unexpected, often deeply philosophical image, impress collectors and gallery owners.

It is not surprising that all of the artist's works exhibited at Cristie's auction in 1990 were sold. And, of course, it is significant that Igor Gubsky’s paintings are presented in the State Tretyakov Gallery (Moscow, Russia), which once again tells us about the high collection value of the artist’s paintings.
