Alexander Egorov (b. 1987, Moscow) is a Russian artist working with photography. In his practice, Egorov combines photography and digital technologies, using the deconstruction technique. Alexander Egorov’s art is devoted to information saturation and overconsumption, the aesthetics of imperfection and the modelling of neo-reality. In 2010 he graduated from the Ivan Fyodorov University of Printing Arts in Moscow, then in 2012 from the Moscow British Higher School of Design (Faculty of Photography). From 2019 to 2020 he took the New Artistic Strategies course at the Joseph Backstein Institute of Contemporary Art. In 2012 Alexander Egorov won The Best of Russia award with his ‘Sandman’ project.
