Exhibition "Traditions" of the artists of the Moscow Printamp Association Automatic translate

February 4 at 17.00 at the Academy of Watercolors and Fine Arts will host the opening ceremony of the exhibition "Traditions", which presents the work of artists of the association "Moscow print".

Moscow printmaking, as an original school, arose at the beginning of the twentieth century. A whole galaxy of creators of Moscow engraving went down in the history of Russian art. Among them was Ignatius Nivinsky, the founder of the Moscow etching school. Subsequently, his house among Moscow artists was called the “Nivinsky Studio”, in it worked I. Golitsin, G. Zakharov, S. Theis, V. Pavlov, E. Matsievsky, L. Antonova, N. Devisheva.

Traditions link the past, present and future into a single thread. Thanks to this unity, the work of contemporary artists of the Moscow Print is inextricably linked with the traditions of Russian printed graphics.

The exposition of the new exhibition includes works by artists of the association, various in styles and techniques, graduates of leading art universities, participants in Moscow, Russian and international exhibitions, whose works are in museum collections, galleries, private collections in Russia and abroad.

The Traditions exhibition is a continuation of the collaboration that began several years ago, when the artists of the association decided to transfer the I. Nivinsky Foundation to the Academy: a collection of paintings and graphic works, archival materials, photographs, and pieces of furniture. Now within the walls of the Academy there is a functioning memorial museum of I. I. Nivinsky, which acquaints visitors with the main landmarks of the creative path and the multifaceted art of the master.

The exhibition will be held from February 4 to March 13 in the Exhibition Hall of the Academy of Watercolor and Fine Arts (3rd floor) at 15 Akademika Varga Street.
