BGUK_3407563 - Exhibition at Catto Gallery 6th -27th November 2025 Hailed to be a front-runner in the contemporary classicism genre, Alex Russell Flint’s enigmatic oil paintings provide drama coupled with an ethereal stillness that entice audiences. Russell Flint’s paintings are punctuated with narratives inspired by his picturesque home and studio L’Ancienne Ecole, in Argenton-Chateau, France, that he transformed from a once derelict schoolhouse. His achievements have been commercially as well as aesthetically acknowledged in Condé Nast's, 'World of Interiors' and the The Financial Times' 'HTSI' magazine. The artist’s romantic works capture the beauty of life’s still moments, following in the famous footsteps of his paternal great-grandfather, Scottish artist Sir William Russell Flint, renowned for his characterful illustrations. Artist and gallery staff photographed with the following works: - 'Bonnet' ( man in swimming cap ) - 'Consumed' ( green dress lying on sofa ) - 'Leda' ( green dress face hidden in swan ) - 'Aftermath' ( pink dress sitting on floor ) - 'Portrait d'un Jeune Homme' ( on fireplace mantlepiece ) - 'Lucy Kneeling' - 'The Drowning' ( swimming pool ) - 'Study for Leda' ( swan and green dress ) - 'Ostrich' ( bending down in purple dress )
