Roman Turovsky is an American artist-painter, photographer and video installation artist, as well as a lutenist-composer, born in Ukraine.
He studied Art at Kiev Shevchenko State Art School and New York’s Parsons School of Design. He also studied Music (Composition and Historical Performance). He moved to the New York City in 1979. Turovsky combined a career in Art with that of a Visual Effects artist in cinema, television and theater, as well as a composer of Classical music. His works are in the permanent collections of Morean Art Center, the Graham Center Museum and the Marian Institute.
He traveled extensively in Europe and South America, where his musical works received many premieres. As a composer, Turovsky concentrated on the instrumental idiom of the Baroque lute and the torban, as well as viola da gamba and carillon. He composed over 1100 instrumental and vocal works influenced by his Ukrainian heritage and the baroque.
