Valery Kosorukov – prominent Russian fine artist, born in Moscow. Professor, member of the Union of Artist of Russia, honored citizen of the City of New Orleans (U.S.A.). Completed with honors the graduate and post-graduate fine arts degree programs at the Moscow State Surikov Fine Arts Institute, where he later taught painting and drawing for over 25 years.
…Professionals and press noted the originality and bright individuality of the artist, who was able to capture the very essence of the dance. The splendid pastel "N. Bessmertnova - Giselle" became not only the artist's personal logo, but a symbol of his homeland’s ballet.
Since the mid-1970s, the artist gained world recognition. He had personal exhibits in Moscow, Novosibirsk, Jackson, Varna, Cairo, New Orleans, Madrid, and Milan. Kosorukov's artwork and his loyalty to the ballet theme became widely noticed in the art world, and he began to be called the “Russian Degas” by those who appreciated his art.
