Richard Dragulejev was born on 28.5.2000 in Hungary. His family moved to St. Petersburg shortly after his birth. He spent the first years of his life in Russia. Here he collected his first childhood memories, which are of great importance for his creative work on a surreal level and find expression in his art today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was through his aunt Illar Erzsebet – herself an artist in the field of sculpture – that Richard Dragulejev first came into contact with art. He spent countless hours in her studio (Illarium) in Budapest, fascinated by how she created figures out of a shapeless lump of clay, which seemed to him as if they would jump up and run through the studio at any moment. The more time he spent in the studio with the sculptures, the more the world of figurative art captivated him. His aunt was not only a source of inspiration for him but also encouraged him in his creative work with her strict opinions and criticism. His Russian grandfather – who taught human biology and anatomy – also had a strong influence on his artistic development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2011, his family moved to Berlin and Dragulejev decided to study art after high school. He first applied to various art academies in Germany. However, as he preferred a more classical art education, he travelled to St Petersburg in 2018 and began his studies at the Russian Academy of Arts. During his studies, he passionately studied human anatomy, live drawing, and old master craftsmanship. Among the artists who have always influenced him are Rembrandt, Goya and Ernst Fuchs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
