Boris Borshch is an avant-garde artist of the old school and a member of a number of creative associations (“Hopeless Painters”, the Association of Experimental Fine Arts, IFA, etc.). Since the eighties, the artist has been living in St. Petersburg, since that time being an integral part of the city. It is Petersburg, in all its states, that becomes the central theme of his work, and Boris Borsch can often be found on the streets with a sketchbook: monumental, expressive painting is born in the moment and absorbs all the colors of architecture and the moods of friends, random passers-by.

And from the point of view of cultural life, it was in the 80s that communities of free artists flourished here, and Boris Borshch turned to avant-garde trends here, opening up new prospects for the realization of his talent. There was an atmosphere of aspiration to create a sincere, free pictorial response to a visible image. By the end of the eighties, the artist turned to the embodiment of impressions from the directly visible. And now he is loved, if not revered, by a very wide circle of artists and experts: for his optimism and ability to appreciate life, his unique pictorial style, his ability to catch different moods of his beloved, but very capricious city.
