Books By Andre Ruzhnikov - Author

Andre Ruzhnikov clinched his first deal in his native Moscow in 1968 - when he sold a 19th century icon to Daily Express correspondent Roy Blackman, who had recently landed the first interview with notorious British spy, Kim Philby. Ruzhnikov travelled the other way, emigrating to the West in 1976 to deal in Russian art. In 2004 he brokered the sensational ninefigure deal to sell the Forbes Collection of Fabergé Imperial Easter Eggs. Now based in London, Ruzhnikov is a powerful and outspoken voice on the Russian art scene whose clinically observant, hard-hitting on-line posts demand market attention and enjoy cult status. Andre Petrovsky resides in London.
