Igor Gnedo is a Russian American artist who has exhibited internationally with shows in New York, Philadelphia and Russia. Inspired by personal cultural ties, politics, nostalgia and religious heritage, his bold, abstract works are a study of identity, cultural belonging and purpose.

Igor's illustrations have been published in American Illustration 2017, 3x3 Illustration Annual 2015, 2016 and 2017, Illustration Friday and Washington Square Review. His artwork is in the collection of Scriber's Catskill Lodge and numerous private collections.
