On October 22, a solo exhibition by Andrei Filippovich Rubtsov, dedicated to the artist’s 100th birthday, will open in the Main Building of the Irkutsk Art Museum (5 Lenin Street). The exhibition features over 60 paintings and graphic works representing the artist’s various genres.

Since 1952, Andrei Rubtsov has participated in regional, national, and international exhibitions, and in 1961 he was accepted into the Union of Artists of the USSR. The artist’s legacy is distinguished by a remarkable diversity of genres and the mastery of their execution. Rubtsov was a virtuoso artist, creating works in the genres of portraiture, still life, and landscape. He often combined several genres within a single canvas. Rubtsov’s landscapes are inextricably linked with the traditions of the Russian classical school. His works reveal a desire to find harmony in simple yet expressive natural motifs. His portraits are distinguished by a special spirituality. Rubtsov’s still lifes represent a unique philosophical understanding of the beauty of the surrounding world through the prism of everyday objects. The exhibition presents works from various periods of the artist’s career.

The exhibition "Andrei Rubtsov: A Century of Painting. On the 100th Anniversary of His Birth" will be on display at the museum’s main building (5 Lenin St.) until November 23.
