Press release for the Bath ME Holiday exhibit of Russian prints
SEPTEMBER 2018 EXHIBITIONS
Green Lion Gallery, 104 Front St., Bath, ME (September 3rd)
Reception with Galleries principals Olesya & Jerry Koenig and David Morgan on Monday, from 1-4 PM.
Green Lion Gallery (www.greenlionart.com) in collaboration with From Russia with Art hosts pop-up exhibition of etchings and prints by some of Russia’s leading printmakers. Refreshments will be served.
Brooklyn Antiquarian Book & Print Fair, from September 8-9th, https://www.brooklynbookfair.com , and Cambridge Open Studios, at Harvard Sq., 1100 Massachusetts Avenue, from September 29-30.
Some of Russia’s best artists have focused their creative energy mastering printmaking, particularly etching – and the results are breathtaking, but hard to find in this country. From Russia With Art Gallery in Cambridge, MA is helping to change that, with an exhibition of etchings and other prints by some of Russia’s leading artists. The show will feature work by Stanislav Nikireev, Alexander Vetrov, Vladimir Vorobyov, and Irina Makoveeva, well-known artists in the Russian and international art world. People’s Artist of Russia Stanislav Nikireev (1932-2007,) a Member of Russian Academy of Art, was one of the most remarkable Masters of modern Russian Fine Arts. Experts consider his incredibly detailed works as a unique phenomenon in current landscape art and etching technique, to be compared only with the legacy of old Masters, such as Albrecht Durer, Rembrandt van Rijn and especially Pieter Brueghel the Elder.
Gallery is also featuring rarely seen original works on paper (pastels, mixed media, drawings) by an important Italian-American modernist August Mosca (1909-2002,) created by the artist in 1940s-1970s (booth #500 at the Brooklyn Book Fair)

In addition, rarely seen in the United States etchings, aquatints and dry points by “Honored Artists of Russia” Alexander Vetrov, Vladimir Vorobyov and Irina Makoveeva will also be presented as part of these exhibitions. Vetrov, Vorobyov and Makoveeva have had exhibitions in America and Europe. Ms. Makoveeva has even participated in exhibitions and workshops throughout Asia for animal dry points in 2015-2017.
The exhibitions are curated by Olesya and Jerry Koenig of Cambridge, MA. Olesya and Jerry are Russian art experts, collectors and owners of From Russia With Art Gallery (www.fromrussiawithart.org) in Cambridge. For the past 8 years the gallery has maintained an internet presence and features several moving exhibitions a year, selling and building knowledge of contemporary Russian-American art and Russian-American cultural relations. Works on display at September 2018 exhibitions will include etchings, which they just brought back from a recent trip to Russia, and original works on paper by A. Mosca
