"Art Rostov" Automatic translate

From April 30 to May 12 incredible premieres await Rostovites at DonExpoCenter: 60 originals of the founder of Russian abstract art Vasily Kandinsky and a new multimedia exhibition “V. Serov. Light and shade". Masterpieces of great painters will be presented at the Art Rostov exhibition, along with 3,000 works of art by contemporary artists and craftsmen.

The eventful project "Art Rostov" for the 9th time promises to be a real cultural breakthrough. Especially for the exhibition in Rostov-on-Don, 60 genuine works of one of the most prominent representatives of abstract painting, Vasily Kandinsky, were collected from museums and private collections around the world. The prerequisite for the emergence of a special style - abstraction - was the change that prevails in pre-revolutionary society. After 100 years, the direction does not lose its relevance and still amazes the audience, expanding the boundaries of consciousness and perception of art.

The exhibition of the most famous portrait painter of Russia - Valentin Serov - gathered more than half a million visitors in the Tretyakov Gallery. Rostov citizens are given a unique opportunity to see 100 masterpieces of the master from various museums of the country in a multimedia film. Portraits of Serov gained popularity due to their amazing accuracy and psychologism. The artist could convey the inner essence of the character with the help of colors, posture and the environment in which the hero was. Serov’s archival documents and letters, coupled with the game of professional actors, enhance the impression of viewing paintings and help to reveal the multifaceted personality of the author.

During the May holidays, the Rostovites and city guests will find a rich cultural program at Art Rostov — more than 50 master classes in painting and arts and crafts for children and adults, choreographic, vocal and literary performances. Separately, a zone of artistic creation, a zone of folk crafts, a zone of sculpture and a children’s zone will work. For the first time, the exhibition will host the competition of readers "The Art of Living Word" and other events dedicated to the anniversaries of Pushkin, Lermontov, Gogol, Akhmatova, bard Bulat Okudzhava and the poetess Julia Drunina.

Everyone can take part in the flashmob “We draw like Kandinsky”, “We draw like Serov” and, under the guidance of an experienced artist, repeat the masterpieces of brilliant masters.

Traditionally, the Art-Rostov exhibition includes more than 3,000 paintings and objects of decorative and applied art, over 500 exhibitors - contemporary artists and masters from all over Russia, countries of near and far abroad, more than 9,000 sq. M. meters of exhibition space. Visitors have the opportunity to personally communicate with the creators of works and purchase art objects.
