“Summer Exhibition” is a new exposition of the In artibus Foundation, presenting more than sixty paintings and graphic works from private collections, united by one versatile theme of summer. It includes works by more than twenty Russian authors of different generations and different degrees of fame: from Ilya Mashkov and Tatyana Mavrina, Konstantin Istomin and Leonid Kazenin, Olga Yanovskaya and Ekaterina Zernova, Alexander Vedernikov and Vyacheslav Pakulin, to now living artists whose personal exhibitions were held in the In artibus Foundation in recent years.
The theme of summer attracts the organizers of the exhibition with its internal neutrality, and the opportunity to demonstrate almost all the plastic themes, distinctive for classical painting, as well as purely artistic qualities of artworks. The exposition consists of what is meant by the name: green landscapes, bouquets, still lifes, illuminated by the summer sun, and female portraits, emphasizing the exclusively summer state of the model, the artist, and the organizers of the exhibition themselves.
