Exhibition "Only Paper. Boris Matrosov" Automatic translate

September 8 at 19:00 in the gallery "Peresvetov Lane" will open the exhibition of Boris Matrosov. The exposition will include 22 works, including the already famous series "Tattoos for artists" and other drawings. The exhibition continues the program “Paper Only”.

The idea of ​​the project “Tattoos for Artists” came up with Boris Matrosov in 1990. Initially, the work was done in oil on canvas, but in the same 1990 they were lost. In 2013, the artist recreated the entire series on paper.

Boris Matrosov was born in Moscow. He was a member of the World Champions art group, was honorary chairman of the Moscow Avant-Garde Club (KLAVA), worked in workshops in Furmanny Lane and workshops on Chistye Prudy, in the art movement Di Papl plywood.

“Paper Only” is a joint project of the Peresvet Lane Gallery and XL PROJECTS. The program is not limited to works created exclusively on this “medium”. “Paper” here is a word that traditionally gives rise to an association with drawing, drawing. And the main emphasis on the drawing of contemporary artists.

We decided not to adhere to the chronological principle, focusing on the works that are being created "here and now." Indeed, the classic art in process is more honest, interesting, flexible, able to keep the viewer in suspense; and we hope that this program will give the necessary impetus to the study and understanding of Russian drawing in professional circles and will be interesting to the viewer, partly restoring the lost tradition of regular exhibitions of graphic artists that existed in Soviet times.

The project is designed for several years. This year, drawings of artists of different generations will be presented: Nikita Alekseev, Denis Salautin, Boris Matrosov, Svetlana Shuvaeva and Ilya Dolgov.

It is no coincidence that these exhibitions are held in the Peresvetov Lane gallery. It was here, at the turn of the 1980s and 90s, that the first exhibitions of KLAVA (the Avant-Garde Club) took place, which became the first public displays of independent art of this period.
