The first monograph on this acclaimed Australian child artist prodigy. Melbourne-based artist Aelita Andre (born 2007) began experimenting with paint at nine months old and has since exhibited worldwide to great critical acclaim. Her abstract compositions break away from the conventions of contemporary art, demonstrating creativity in its purist form - in the artistic imagination of a child. Now formally recognized as the youngest prodigy painter in the world, Aelita Andre staged a widely acclaimed solo exhibition in 2016 (at nine years of age) at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. In 2020 and 2022, she was among the world's top 100 recipients of the "Global Child Prodigy Awards" in the "Art & Drawing" category. Aelita continues to create her beautiful "sound and touch-paintings" and installations, merging art and music, and successfully exhibiting her work internationally.
