Exhibition by Ani Charina "MOSCOW. A FRIEND OF CHILDHOOD" Automatic translate

Sharp tongues joke that every Muscovite has his own hometown. Perhaps this is true: in Moscow, which has grown to the size of an average European state, you can meet natives of various Russian cities - from Vladivostok to Kaliningrad.

Artcultivator and ZNUI Gallery present the exhibition “MOSCOW. FRIEND OF CHILDHOOD. " Its author is the artist Anna Charina, a native Muscovite who has long worked in the urban landscape genre. Her Moscow seems to be in a different time dimension. It is quiet and often deserted, they don’t know the word “renovation”, and the shadows of Moscow City still do not lie on the domes of churches.

“I was born in Zamoskvorechye, studied in the areas of Arbat and Kitay-Gorod. The fairytale sensation of the old city, its special proximity, were soldered into some very dense, full of details memory… It is part of me, and, apparently, will not go anywhere, ”the artist says. An unusual “watercolor” painting technique allows the author to convey this bright, slightly melancholy, and childishly magical mood.

The exposition of the ZNUI gallery, located in the heart of old Moscow, features more than 30 landscapes and still lifes made in pictorial and graphic techniques.

Anna Charina was born in Moscow in 1975, graduated from the Children’s Art School No. 1, the art department of Moscow State University of Printing Arts. Member of the Creative Union of Artists of Russia, the Professional Union of Artists, International Art Fund.

The author has more than 20 personal exhibitions. The artist’s works are in private collections in Russia, the USA, Canada, Germany, China and other countries.

Lives and works in Moscow, is engaged in easel painting and graphics.
