Evgeny Chubarov 1934, Nizhnee Bobino, Bashkortostan, USSR-2012, Mytishchi, Moscow region, Russia

“There is no traditional center in his paintings. The composition is randomly scattered across the canvas. The works are intentionally created in defiance of academic canons. The arbitrary composition eliminates the internal balance of colors, shapes and strokes and represent “non-relational art.” Nothing is weighed in this limitless freedom. This is where Chubarov performs masterfully.”
— Dr. Tayfun Belgin, Osthaus Museum Hagen. Notes about E. Chubarov

Evgeny Chubarov was an artist whose passion for drawing and painting blossomed during his childhood. Influenced by his admiration for applying art and history. He began his artistic journey by studying jewelry design, weapons engraving, and eventually sculpture – the skills that he would later revive on his paintings.

In the early 1990s, Chubarov relocated to Berlin and later to New York City, where his artistic style underwent its final transformation from figurative art to abstraction. Chubarov was awarded a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant and participated in exhibitions together with the leading artists of the post-war generation: Frank Stella, Peter Halley, Sol LeWitt and Damien Hirst. Artist’s heritage includes over hundreds of paintings, thousands of works on paper and sculptures that can be found in public funds, museums and private collections around the world.

The Chubarov Foundation has been established to collect, preserve and promote the art of Evgeny Chubarov.

The main goals of the Foundation are to collaborate with art institutions on exhibiting, publishing and cataloguing the artist’s works in museums and private collections.
