Excerpts from the review "Magical Realism of Alexey Aronov" by art critic and academician Grigory Ginzburg:

“Alexey Aronov’s paintings emotionally impress with their mystery, ambiguity, and multilayered meaning. It is difficult to find generalizing words about the vast and diverse creative path of this talented artist, sensitive to social processes of our time. Possessing an exquisite and distinctive manner of color rendition, a special relationship to the canvas space, and a versatile search for genre embodiments, he has created his unique authorial language of communication with the viewer, reflecting contemporary philosophical concepts of personality and society.”
“As his main tool for artistic cognition of modernity, Alexey Aronov chose the method of ‘Magical Realism,’ which proved close to the author in stylistic visual embodiment through color, form, and genre.”
“The artist responds to everything happening with an emotional creative impulse, striving to overcome anxiety and inner psychological tension by special means of visual art. He places his objects in a motionless atmosphere of rarefied detachment and subjects them to examination in a new environment of mystical ambiguity and filled with ‘other meanings.’”

“The author of the article hopes that revealing the century-long genesis of the metaphysical stylistic direction ‘magical realism,’ its worldwide success and global significance, will provide the viewer with the necessary context for the fullest experience of the depth of emotional impact and appreciation of artistic images. Alexey Aronov’s paintings reflect pressing questions of human existence, inviting viewers to look anew at the ‘everyday life of people and things’ through the prism of ‘magical realism.’ Thanks to the artist who awakens intellectual and emotional impressions in us within the vast space of life’s information.”
