The exhibition "Image and Word", dedicated to the decoration of book publications, is open in the "Gallery of V. Bronstein" Automatic translate

IRKUTSK. The “V. Bronstein Gallery”, specializing in the works of contemporary artists, takes an active part in the events held as part of the “Russian Radiance” project, dedicated to Russian culture and spirituality. The gallery has provided its exhibition space for an interregional art exhibition dedicated to the All-Russian Year of Literature.

The exhibition is presented to visitors of the "V. Bronstein Gallery" located on the street. October Revolution d. 3, entitled "Image and Word." Its grand opening took place on October 2, and for everyone, the exhibition is available from October 3, during the gallery’s opening hours.

The creation of such an exhibition in the Year of Literature draws attention to an important component of the publication of books - the work of artists working on their design. The decoration of the book, from the cover of the publication to the illustrations to its text, is a means to help the reader understand the intent of its author. Therefore, the artist who worked on its design can rightfully be considered a co-author of a writer or poet who wrote the text of a book.

Visitors to this unique exhibition will see book graphics placed in a single exhibition space, issued by Irkutsk publishers, and works by famous artists from other Russian cities that are directly related to literature. The exposition includes portraits of authors of literary works, among which you can see those who were born in the Irkutsk Territory - V. Rasputin, E. Evtushenko, A. Vampilova.

Guests of the “V. Bronstein Gallery”, who planned to visit the exhibition on October 9, will get to the presentation of the “Visible Word” almanac. On the pages of this book, Irkutsk poets and artists combined their works.
