The Ulyanovsk Art Museum is pleased to welcome Yevgeny Shibanov’s work in his exhibition hall.

The congratulatory words of Tatyana Ivshina, the Minister of Culture of the Ulyanovsk Region, spoke about the increased craving for beauty among people, which is evident from the number of people present at the opening of the long-awaited exhibition of remarkable work of the hero of the anniversary. Art critic Tatyana Stadler congratulated Yevgeny Shibanov’s work as an original synthesis of academic art with folk culture.

Visitors to the exhibition, which shows forty works by the artist, can see for themselves the truth of these words. The artist’s unique painting style, developed over many years devoted to creativity, allows Evgeny Shibanov to create equally unique works. The artist devoted most of them to the theme of the village and its inhabitants.

The exhibition, open until February 29, included his best works.
