Avatar - is the address of the image link. Get it with a network request to the API and feed it to the lib for downloading / displaying pictures - Picasso, Glide
Waiting for receiving a link to an image, you need to make a request according to the API description
For example: https://api.vk.com/method/users.get?user_ids=1&fields=photo_100&v=5.53
Request will return JSON of the form
{"response":[{"id":1,"first_name":"Павел","last_name":"Дуров","photo_100":"http:\/\/cs629231.vk.me\/v629231001\/c542\/fcMCbfjDsv0.jpg"}]} In it lies the link.
Retrofit is best to get and parse
