I looked at the materials on this show.

Vladimir Kupriyanov, Series "Upland". http://www.mdf.ru/search/authors/kup...%e0 & page = 2 But I would not say that any of these artists working in the spiritual and religious topic the sense that you invest. Without the biblical stories. The search is for all artists, but not the main theme. The closest, perhaps, Gor Chahal. He was an ideologist of the Valaam. A crucifix and crosses are almost all - of Natalia Nesterova and Ernst unknown, Rabin and Dmitry Plavinsky to Pepperstein.

Please specify at what point you are interested in the topic. I know some artists who are considering work in this direction as a continuation and development of traditional for Russia, interrupted artificially events of the revolution ... But do not want anyone to substitute a misunderstanding, because Today religion is understood very narrowly: God is understood as his grandfather, flying in the clouds ...

I really liked the work of the St. Petersburg artist-philosopher Rozhkov Vyacheslav A. (born 1954). (2 artist's works exhibited here at a charity auction to benefit victims of the terrorist attack on 29 March).

(Unfortunately, contact artist I do not, I think, the administration of the site can be informed, if not, you can find in the galleries mentioned in the last link)

Of course (as always) you'll first need to "synchronize dictionaries" ..
What is srvremenny "," spiritual "," religious "?
And in which context? (Soremenny, spiritual, religious?)
And by the way, but always there "religion" are "spiritual"?
Find out the truth .. (Please, please)

Sorry, that question was not very accurate. But how many interesting things I learned! " What are the fellows of contemporary Russian artists (working in contempopary), as they boldly raised the problem of relations between the church and society! An absolute delight! Done!

I was asked the organizers of the art-center "Patron" (Ukraine). They are interested now living Russian artists, who write on biblical themes.
