Art enamel is one of the leading areas in the exhibition activities of the Creative Union of Artists of Russia. Currently, 14 international and interregional enamel exhibitions have been held. These are such large-scale projects as: “The 1st and 2nd Moscow International Exhibitions of Art Enamel”, “Impossible Art and Optical Illusions in Enamel Technique”, the festival of young enamels “New Names”, “Ecology is the abode of the soul. Light and shadow".

The new project “Enamel Art Masters of the Academies of Count Stroganov and Baron Stieglitz” will be different from previous exhibitions and will show the work of the best enamels of two famous art and industrial academies, which are rightfully centers of preserving the traditions and development of enamel art. A review of the works of graduates of different years and generations will make it possible to assess the current state of enamel art not only in Moscow and St. Petersburg, but also in other regions where famous artists have already founded their schools: in Rostov, Mineralnye Vody, Cheboksary, Yaroslavl, Yekaterinburg, Irkutsk. In the presented works, famous enamels will demonstrate a variety of styles, plastic solutions, techniques, decal technologies at the highest artistic level.

Within the framework of the project, it is planned to hold a round table on the theme: “The role of art and industrial academies in the development and preservation of the traditions of enamel art in Russia” with the participation of members of the Russian Academy of Arts, exhibitors, representatives of creative unions and cultural and public figures of Russia.

One of the important tasks of the project is the publication of a catalog representing each artist and the holding of a student work contest. The opening ceremony includes greetings from official guests, representatives of art and industry academies, the Creative Union of Russia and exhibitors.
