    Hi Barbara!

    Indrikov describes his work as fantastic realism which is a style of painting that developed in Vienna in the late 1940s. These paintings were often literary and anecdotal and depicted a fairy-tale world of fantasy and imagination with minute detail.

    I see many influences in Indrikov’s paintings including, Art Nouveau, Medieval/Byzantine, and Surrealism to name a few.
