Osipow has been an active influence on the visual arts in Finland since the 1960’s. Many of his works have ended up in foreign collections, without ever being seen by the Finnish and Nordic art public. Osipow sees the painter as both a craftsman and a poet. He does not want to link his own art to any particular statements. He was known as a Finnish landscape painter
