For the first time the paintings by the well-known painter-emigrant Vladimir Titov, who lives now in France are presented at his personal exhibition in Saint-Petersburg. The exposition includes 45 works from the author's collection.
Vladimir Titov was born in 1950 in Moscow. He learned from the legendary nonconformal painter Vasily Sitnikov. Later he joined this trend himself. Vladimir Titov gets the topics from the social environment of the city outskirts, slums, back streets, his heroes are the outcast inhabitants of the megalopolis. But his art is not the continuation of the descriptive-genre painting, that was traditional for the Russian art, it is not one of the soc-art trends. Highlighting the realm of shadows in the every day life Titov finds its beauty and poetry, that are strange and unusual for the Russian tradition.
