Mikhail Mikhailovich Tarkhanov (1888, Zen'kovo (Ukraine) - 1962, Moscow) was a russian painter known for his "Picturesque Textured Improvisations", abstract water based textured compositions. He studied at the Stroganov Moscow State University of Arts and Industry where he graduated in 1915. After being called to the Russian army in 1916 and 1919 as an artist-topographer and draftsman, he entered the VKhUTEMAS, the Russian state art and technical school, in 1921. His teachers were Vasili Kandinsky, Vladimir Favorsky or Nikolay Kupreyanov. He worked for many Soviet institutions as he pursued his abstract work, which were restricted in the communist Russia.
