BIOGRAPHY

Andrey Zhigalov is a multifaceted artist whose career spans acting, clowning, and performance art, making him a unique figure in the world of physical media. Known as the "clown without makeup," Zhigalov gained recognition for his poignant portrayal of Kolya in Nikolai Dostal's tragicomedy *Cloud Paradise* (1990). This film not only showcased his acting prowess but also earned him the title of Best Actor at the film festivals, making it a sought-after title in collector circles. His continued collaboration with Dostal led to the sequel *Kolya - Rolling Stone* (2005), which won accolades at the Window to Europe Film Festival, further enhancing his filmography's value. Collectors are drawn to Zhigalov's work not just for his performances but for the historical context of his films, which reflect the evolution of post-Soviet cinema. His unique background, transitioning from a welder to a celebrated clown and actor, adds an intriguing layer to the narrative surrounding his films. Additionally, his involvement in international circus festivals and productions showcases the depth of his artistry, making his releases, particularly *Forgotten Experiment* (2023), a must-have for enthusiasts of both cinema and the performance arts.
