Русская историческая живопись XIX века: творческий рассвет Верещагина, Сурикова и Репина

Daria ShekhovtsovaArt historian (St. Petersburg Academy of Arts named after I. Repin, Moscow State University)

I worked for 2 years in a publishing house that specializes in the modern architectural process. There I organized conferences, competitions, workshops and exhibitions. It is important for me not only to tell about the history of art, but also to help understand its essence, learn to see, comprehend and feel. I have always been fascinated by how light, color and line affect the viewer. It often happens that the artist himself does not fully understand this effect. Then the art critic acts as a detective who investigates the case. And the moment when something is revealed in a work of art that no one could understand before you is magic. For this feeling I came to the profession. I want to teach not only to rely on external sources, but also to find answers within the work itself.
