Alexander Salaueu (September 13, 1926 – May 23, 2021) remains a fascinating enigma in the art world. Few works have survived from his extensive artistic repertoire, estimated at around 1,500 oils and 3,500 watercolors. The majority of his work, especially his lyrical abstract pieces, dates from the later period of his career. The latest works are exclusively held by prestigious museums and discerning collectors, underscoring their extraordinarily rare nature.
Born in Soloni, in the Novgorodsky region, Salaueu’s youth was marked by commitment. At the age of 17, he actively participated in the resistance movement and was decorated with the Red Star order, also receiving commemorative medals as a great wartime patriot in 1945. He remained stationed in Tallinn from 1945 to 1949, with no precursory signs of his future artistic career.
The pivotal encounter with Ado Vabbe was decisive. Vabbe introduced him to art, particularly avant-garde abstraction. In 1955, Salaueu successfully pursued courses at the Academy of Art in Saint Petersburg and later at the Institute of Art Theater in Belarus, further deepening his artistic expertise. In 1965, he became the set designer and producer of the Academic Dramatic Theater in Vitebsk, succeeding Mark Chagall and becoming a renowned painter in his own right.
Alexander Salaueu occupies a unique place in the artistic landscape of the second half of the 20th century. His intense creations, artistic expertise, and influential circle, which included artists like Pablo Picasso, earned him nearly automatic recognition as one of the greatest contemporary artists. His works are sought after worldwide, primarily held in the United States, Germany, Italy, France, New Brunswick, USA, the Tretyakov Museum, Vitebsk National Museum, Minsk National Museum, and the Minnesota Museum, among others.
It is worth noting that his lyrical abstract works are exceptionally rare, with most being nearly impossible to find. Alexander Salaueu never actively sought recognition because it came to him naturally. Throughout his life, he continued the artistic legacy initiated by pioneers like Malevich, Chagall, and Kroushkin, thus perpetuating the tradition of the second school of Paris.
