Alexandra Fedorova Inner architecture  – 2
The new exotic series of paintings of Alexandra Fedorova can be described with a quote from Rudyard Kipling “an old deserted city, lost and buried in the jungle”. In The Jungle Book, it is possible to find a more detailed description of the deserted city: “Trees had grown into and out of the walls; the battlements were tumbled down and decayed, and wild creepers hung out of the windows of the towers on the walls in bushy hanging clumps.

Pahom “YELLOW”
“What is good about conceptualism? A good thing is that at first an artist thinks and thinks then he comes up with an idea and only after that a work is created and everything results from the idea and it turns out that the artist is a clever man and I like being clever but not only clever but also witty like a good Bernard Shaw-type humorist I planned the exhibition YELLOW as a collection of folk pictures that is not burdened with intellectual Continue reading →

Julia Kosulnikova “What Goes On In a Young Girl’s Mind?”
What goes on in a young girl’s mind? Over the history of humanity this question probably appears as the most frequently asked by the stronger sex.
