Exhibition "Boris Vorobyov. Porcelain, Graphics" at the Novgorod Museum of Fine Arts Automatic translate

September 14, visitors to the Novgorod Museum of the reserve were able to get to the exhibition of amazing works made by the artist Boris Vorobyov. The exposition was 150 works from the state collection of the Hermitage.

The creative fate of the artist was closely linked with the Leningrad Porcelain Factory, where he worked for more than thirty years and created many wonderful works that fell into the gold fund. Not renouncing traditions, Vorobyov remained faithful to himself, creating vivid animalistic figures from porcelain, ceramics, faience, glass and other materials.

Representing animals, the author sought to fully reveal their strength and power, using all the tricks and techniques that allow you to conquer any material to your will. Tigers, panthers, wolves and bears are typical characters of his work. However, the artist no less often turned to outstanding works of Russian and foreign literature, perpetuating their subjects in fragile china. All his works, immediately after graduation, became collectibles and instantly ended up in private collections.

However, in addition to sculptural works, the exhibition also presents magnificent graphic sheets by the artist, revealing the fantastic depth of his work. Really worth coming to the exhibition - there is something to admire!
