He received a master's degree in art from the Academy of Fine and Industrial Arts in Leningrad, Russia, and was a professor at St. John's University, New York, and a faculty member of Newark School of Fine and Industrial Arts. His bronze tableau of seven life-size figures entitled The Commuters, sculpted in 1985, is installed in Newark Penn Station.

His book Reflections features seventeen linocuts, etchings, and mixed-media prints and has been included in the print collection of New York Public Library as well as the rare book collection of Newark Museum Library, Library of Saint Bonaventure University, and Print Collection of Hermitage Museum in Leningrad, Russia. In April 1995 Mr. Gurevich was granted a patent on a new type of manifolding book, one of which, Numbers 1-10, 10-1, is in a collection at the Brooklyn Museum and two different kinds of books are in the collection of a library at Columbia, University of Chicago. As a mime, Mr. Gurevich created Grigur's Pantomime Theater in Leningrad (Sankt Petrburg), Russia, in 1969 and later, in 1979 in the United States. He and his company performed throughout Russia as well as in Denmark, Germany, and the United States. Alexander Gurevich Alexander Wittmann Gurevich has grown up in a world of classical music, literature, and art. Since he began studying pantomime with his father at age five, he has been drawn more and more into theater-specifically the most vivid and interactive form, incorporating music, visual art, writing, and of course drama. The study of miming led him to take theater classes in middle and high school where, through the staging, performing, and analyzing of many classical texts such as Marlowe's Doctor Faustus and Sheridan's The Rivals, Alex began to develop his taste as a director. Meanwhile as an artist, Alex developed his own pen-and-ink drawing style, and his works were exhibited in the United States and abroad, at venues such as the Penza Museum in Russia and the Orensanz Foundation building in New York City. His drawings are whimsical and fantastical, putting the viewer in mind of a fairytale or a dream. Not satisfied with the slow, monotonous pate of formal education, Alex chose to take on the world immediately after completing high school. But where to begin? Alex found an internship for a theater in Soho and took it from there. From carpentry work, to production assistant work, to stage management, Alex has been laboring toward his goals-to write and direct. He now resides in Jersey City, New Jersey, from where he works both from home and in New York.
