Summary | Exhibition named “...More than an artist...” celebrating the 150th anniversary of A. K. Denissoff-Ouralsky opened on February 19, 2014 in Ekaterinburg Museum of Fine Arts. For the first time a series of 15 compositions “Allegorical fi gures of the warring powers” created by the artist in 1914–1916 is being presented within one exposition environment. The exhibition presents a summary of a program of research which required an analysis of the author’s text-program and descriptions made by the contemporaries, comparison of these texts with the archive photos and the study of the preserved works and their fragments. The work performed made possible the restoration of the series of 15 artistic works in their integrity, study the underlying motives of its creation, and indentify sources of the powerful and expressive imagery. | ||
