No, generally he's admitted as film theorist who was mainly captivated with metaphysical themes but at this time his method of approach was dialectical. We can't say for each director who disclaims conventionalism that he's experimental.

I would say yes. His use of the long take was revolutionary back when Rublev was released. Tarkovsky and other Russian directors (German, Konchalovsky, Mikhalkov, Klimov, Sheptiko) were against Soviet Montage, and wanted to extend cinematic moments beyond mere seconds, or fractions of seconds.

in addition to the ones you've mentioned:
6. peter greenaway
7. the brothers quay
8. don hertzfeldt
9. harmony korine
honorable mention: lars von trier. he doesn't stray from traditional narratives, but he's reinvented his process so many times (with a lot of hits and misses along the way) that i find something admirable about his work. -

Kenneth Anger
Andy Warhol
Godfrey Reggio
I would say that Tarkovsy is experimental. He may not be anything too crazy now, because his style has influenced so many people, but I would say that back then he was rather earth-shattering. -

Only one I can think of that hasn't been mentioned is Man Ray.
