About Serge Mendjisky
Serge Mendjisky (1929–2017) was a French painter, photographer, and draftsman born and based in Paris. His practice spanned oil painting and photographic work, engaging with Divisionist and Cubist visual strategies to deconstruct and reimagine urban landscapes. Cityscapes of Paris, New York, Venice, Moscow, Istanbul, and Casablanca form a central thread in his oeuvre, alongside landscapes, animal subjects, and flower studies. Mendjisky is listed in the Bénézit Dictionnaire critique et documentaire des peintres (1976 edition), and his identity is recorded across multiple library authority files including Getty ULAN, VIAF, the RKD Netherlands Institute for Art History, and the Library of Congress. Collectitors most often encounter his work through auction circulation of paintings and photographs with urban and architectural themes.

Common works and media
Mendjisky produced oil paintings, photographs, and drawings. His paintings frequently depict urban scenes — Paris, New York, Venice, Moscow, and Istanbul — rendered through a Divisionist or Cubist-influenced lens that deconstructs perspective. Photographic works also focus on cityscapes and architectural subjects. Smaller-format works include landscapes, animal representations, and flower pieces. Works on paper and prints may also appear in secondary market contexts.
Market and appraisal context
Serge Mendjisky's work appears at auction primarily as paintings and photographs, with urban cityscapes being the most commonly offered subject category. Key factors that may affect appraisal include the specific medium (oil painting versus photograph versus work on paper), the depicted city or subject, provenance documentation, and condition. His inclusion in the Bénézit dictionary confirms scholarly recognition. Collectors should verify attribution carefully, as the alternate spelling "Mendjinsky" appears in some records. Comparable auction results from major houses should be consulted for current pricing context.
