Andrey Lyssenko was born into a dynasty of artists, Lyssenko - Tereshenko, in 1974 (Moscow, Russia). The founder of the dynasty, Official Honored Artist of Russia, Andrey G. Lyssenko (1916-2000), was Andrey's grandfather. Andrey's mother and stepfather are also professional, highly educated artist-painters. From early childhood, Andrey showed a predilection for art and received training from his family members. Andrey's childhood took place in an enclave within Moscow historically designated as a land for the artistic community (like Barbizon in France), known as the famous Verchnyaya Maslovka street, where such world-renowned masters as Igor Grabar, Sergey Gerasimov, Yury Pimenov, and many other internationally famous artists lived and worked.
Andrey Lyssenko began his professional art career at the Grade School of Arts in 1981. In 1983, he successfully passed the examination to enter the Moscow Central Lyceum of Fine Arts under the patronage of the State Academic Art Institute named after V.I. Surikov. In 1992, Andrey Lyssenko enrolled in the Moscow State Academic Art Institute named after V.I. Surikov, a branch of the Russian Academy of Fine Arts. While studying at the institute, Lyssenko’s teachers included professors A. Danilichev, I. Shatsky, L. Shepelev, and V. Nekrasov. Upon graduation in 1998, Andrey was accepted into the Moscow Artists Union and the International Federation of Artists. (At that time, selection to these art organizations was very rigorous. Only after a couple of featured exhibitions and a special decision by honored senior artists was it possible to become a member).
Andrey Lyssenko’s artistic life is full of searching for new ways to develop his own style of art. Every new work by the master is a new exploration and test of artistic space. The artist has undertaken many travels and journeys to gain new artistic experiences, knowledge, and impressions.
Since completing his formal education, he has participated in many international and regional plein-air festivals, more than 100 art exhibitions and auctions. He has also successfully organized and produced art-community and personal exhibitions and master classes in prestigious art halls. Additionally, Andrey Lyssenko has had a successful career as an art instructor, teaching academic drawing, painting, and composition at the renowned College of Fine Arts and Design named after V. Vasnetsov, under the patronage of the Stroganoff Academy of Fine Arts.
