Moscow artists Ivan Milyaev and Anna Efimova present their works for the second time in Kaluga

KALUGA. Since June 2, the Kaluga Museum of Fine Arts has been waiting for visitors who want to get acquainted, or to meet again with a family duet of metropolitan artists. Ivan Milyaev, Anna Efimova - these names are already familiar to residents of Kaluga. Now they again delight the residents of Kaluga with the exhibition "Painting, Graphics, Theater", available to museum guests until July 3.

The vast majority of the time, artists give creativity and pedagogical work. Their knowledge and talent are in demand at the Impromptu musical theater for children, which has been successfully operating in Moscow. The work of the family duet is well known in Tula, where they fruitfully work in the puppet theater. Artists share their knowledge with students of creative universities and students of the art school. V. Vatagina.

Since Ivan Milyaev works a lot on the design of performances at the Impromptu Theater, the exposition also includes sketches of the scenery for the performances. A large number of them were created, but the artist’s most favorite work was the design of a modern musical about Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. Fans of the musical come to the Impromptu Theater more than once, just to meet with the characters of the musical. The theater owes such success to the audience to participate in the work on this performance of Ivan Milyaev, the main artist of the theater.

Despite being very busy, artists find time to travel, where their new works are born. The family duet also has favorite places where they often come. In the exhibition you can see the works created by each of the artists in one place, but they saw him in different ways. If the love of the impressionists is clearly visible in the painting of Ivan Milyaev, the graphics created by Anna Efimova are distinguished by solid, expressive lines of the drawing.

During the exhibition, the authors will hold creative meetings.
