The exhibition project "The Attraction of Realism" has been successfully passing for several years and originates from 2009. During this time, the exhibition gained the status of a traditional review of the creative achievements of artists of the Moscow School of Painting. However, over the years, artists from other cities of Russia took part in the project: St. Petersburg, Perm, Vyatka, etc. The high professionalism of execution, the authenticity and poetics of displaying reality, an attentive attitude to nature and a deep interest in people remain unchanged.

The exhibition "The Attraction of Realism" will be interesting not only to specialists, but also to all lovers of contemporary Russian realistic art.
