Exhibition Margarita Baranova "Spaces and fillings" ("Spaces and filling")

On March 12, at 17:00, the grand opening of the very “moving” exhibition of the remarkable St. Petersburg artist Margarita Baranova “Spaces and fillings” (“Spaces and Filling”) will take place.

The main idea of the exhibition is to show the movement and speed in the life of a modern person. Everything is ambiguous here: youth gives a gift - an opportunity to develop, see and manage a lot, be free in your choice. But on the other hand, a person in the modern world of gadgets and constant technological progress, sometimes loses the ability to enjoy simple things and ceases to notice the warm south wind, the sound of the surf, the joy of walking along the shore. And it’s very good when he suddenly stops, catches himself with this thought and realizes that not everything is lost and seems to rediscover these emotions.

“Spaces” in Baranova’s paintings are southern cities lost somewhere in the mountains, where it is so easy to feel inspiration from old streets and embankments. Through her works, the artist conveys what is happening immediately, the feeling of being "here and now."

The artist herself says of her work this way: “At the present period of my work, realism in painting is most interesting and close to me, but I try to betray it with a modern sound and mood. An important result in the work for me is the harmonious interaction of form and motive, shape and color, emotions. Since I work with figurative art or subject art, then, of course, for me the image itself is important, the person, his visible and invisible presence in the work. The heroes of my work are modern people who live on the move, they are in a hurry, they want to have time to see as much as possible, they feel, communicate, seek, love and sad, on the run.
