In his U.S. debut, Russian artist Roman Zaslonov will show his richly whimsical paintings at Chicago's Gallery KH starting January 16. With wait time for a Zaslonov composition hovering around two years, the gallery expects an enthusiastic response from patrons hoping to snag an original work.

And this show isn't just unique because it's Zaslonov's first in the states -- it's also bringing together works that have been hanging in private collections, new to the public and never before seen among other exhibited works.

Zaslovnov was born in the Soviet Union in 1962 and emigrated to France in the 1990s, where he first reached international acclaim.

The painting above, La Robe d'Architecte en Rouge, is priced at $97,000. See more of Zaslonov's work in the gallery. The show will run through March 7, 2009.

I find these works rather like illustrations for a children book, not great works of art. Too much detail, too storylike. I work nearby so will have a look when the show opens, but don't think they're all that.
