Prior to September 18, Galeev Gallery exhibition will last outstanding graphics Yuri Velikanova (http://www.ggallery.ru/ru/events/31). The artist did not live up to his thirtieth year (1904 (Odessa) - January 26, 1934 ( Leningrad )), and the beginning of dawn, his work had on the Civil War and the formative years of Soviet power, a demand for ideological art . Velikanova , derive their inspiration in the Renaissance, was in those circumstances a direct path to the "forgotten names." Forcibly forgotten . What did not happen only through the efforts of dedicated connoisseurs and collectors.

The exhibition Velikanova striking conflict between the Renaissance and the need to create awareness in a " fire of world revolution ." All ideas in the era of Fra Angelico, and life throws at boiler shop of the plant Marty. The hardest test for an artist : a revolution in the streets and the perfect counter-revolution in the head. Ironically, even in this conflict were born even eclectic , yet surprisingly touching things - for example , the work placed in the aesthetics of the iconography.
