Pictures with unusual angels and dolls at an exhibition in Vladimir

An amazing exhibition was opened at the Fine Arts Center of Vladimir, the exposition of which was created from the works of two masters working in various genres of art. This wonderful project combined the unique dolls made by Yulia Ralnikova with paintings in the naive style written by Yuri Negodaev.

This project has already visited Moscow and St. Petersburg, and now residents of Vladimir can see it. Obviously, because Vladimir is the hometown for both artists and works at the exhibition, much more than during trips to the capital’s shows. The ability to see so many copyright works by Yulia Ralnikova in one place is a rare occurrence.

Even at home, the artist has only a few dolls, and most of them almost immediately settle in private collections. Member of the Union of Artists Julia Ralnikova has been doing her unique work since she was eighteen. The first dolls were created in the process of working on a diploma at the Vladimir College of Culture. Now Julia is a regular participant in the international annual doll salon; her works were exhibited in the country’s prestigious exhibition halls.

The paintings of the member of the Union of the artist Yuri Negodaev are inhabited by unusual characters made in a bright, decorative color palette. For him, there are no secondary details - every small detail is a part of the universe that appears on the canvases of the painter.

In his world, unusual characters live - slightly angular, teen-like angels engaged in fishing, walking with cats. Mysterious landscapes make you stop for a long time near them. The artist’s world is a dream world, and every dream cannot look real, therefore, stylization was used in his canvases.

You can visit the exhibition until December 16th.
