The State Russian Museum / The Stroganov Palace Nikolay Shestopalov
The exhibition presents the oeuvre of Nikolay Shestopalov (1875-1954) for the first time after a long break. This artist acquired appraisal and fame in the 1900-1920-s and afterwards remained forgotten for a long time. Before 1917 he participated in exhibitions of the “World of art” (“Mir Iskusstva”) group of artists and was active in the genre of satirical graphics. Later, after the Revolution he worked with historical-revolutionary subject matters and presented his paintings at all exhibitions of Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia from the time of its establishment.
The exhibition in the Stroganov Palace will comprise around 70 works of Nikolay Shestopalov from the Russian Museum and private collection.
