SLAVA IVANOV

Born in Russia I have studied History of Art at State Pedagogical University and Photography at George Brown College, Toronto.

My first exhibition was inspired by abandoned heritage and its beauty. In 2014 I was involved in a major collaboration with Rostov Kremlin Museum (Russia) working on multiple projects and exhibitions till 2021.

Changing cities and countries I grew up as museum, architectural, travel and social photographer. Currently located in Vladivostok (Russia) I work collaboratively with Museum of Far East History and other parties.
