Exhibitions: Works on Russian North by Vyacheslav Mikhailov displayed in St. Petersburg

4 March 2012

March 1, 2012 the Marble Palace (St. Petersburg) launched the exhibition of works by Vyacheslav Mikhailov.

The personal exhibition of modern St. Petersburg painter introduces its new series of paintings under the subject of the Russian North, as well as graphic works from different years, which is a little-known page of his work.

The unique beauty of nature and the ancient cities of the Russian North reconsidered and implemented by the master in conventional symbolic images, endowed with a special plastic force and multiple meaning ("Belozersk," "Veliky Ustyug..Neighborhoods", "Chapel of the Archangel Michael", "Churchyard. Kizhi Island" and others).

The graphic section of the exhibition includes only a small part of the artist’s creations made within three decades. However, these works clearly and fully reveal yet another facet of his work.
