Pilot Alexander was born in 1947 in Khakassia, and six years later his family moved to the town of Achinsk Krasnoyarsk Territory. In this town of the artist's childhood. So far, he says his countrymen, strange, "Filonov," he said characters, sullen-looking, but open and honest, so different to the big cities.

That Achinsk appeared first passion in art, youth began attending a local art studio, and then decided to enroll in the Krasnoyarsk Art School. School followed for three years in the army, and in 1971, the young artist with a companion went to Leningrad. Friends came in a strange, unfamiliar city, known to them in the Hermitage albums, postcards with views of the city, in which there was no friends, no relatives. There followed years of study by correspondence at the Repin Institute, attending lectures at the History Department of the University of Leningrad, long days spent in the Hermitage and the Russian Museum. In those years, he admired the work of Petrov-Vodkin, Nesterov, artists of the first half of the XX century: Lentulova, Tatlin, Kuprin Filonov. According to the artist, there was a time when he came to the Russian Museum only to look at the "great vows" Nesterov, walked all the halls, he stood next to him, stood for hours and then left.

Over time, a new circle of friends and acquaintances. Alexander Pilot harmoniously joined in cultural life, felt involved everything going. Passed naive delight of beauty embankments and avenues shown in the first landscapes ripe willingness to rethink its aesthetics, to express their attitude to the subject. Entered a new important stage in the works. In 1980 began the informal exhibition of creative association Association of Experimental Fine Arts, from the time the artist began to take an active part in the exhibitions held in the country, and after the collapse of the Soviet Union - and abroad, who introduced him to the art of foreign collectors.

In the nineties, a relationship with the Pushkinskaya-10, the first art center, spontaneously appeared in the city and, after some time, officially recognized by the authorities. Pushkin was, and still is home to many artists. Cohesive creative brotherhood, united under one roof, has helped to solve the problem of the shop.

But city life is not able to fully conquer the pilot. And now he is in search of impressions each year touring the country, where, having escaped from the noisy crowded streets can safely work on landscapes. Landscape remains a favorite genre painter. "For me the most important thing in the picture - it's color, composition, harmony of colors, stains that give this beautiful musical chord, intuitive coming from the track sound and mood," says the artist about his work.
