We are in for a pleasant surprise

November 05, 2009

As the II International exhibition of calligraphy attracts more and more attention, its events program grows with new topics and outstanding artists.

On November 7 we expect a new participant to our master-classes: meet Julia Larionova – a culture expert, member of the Art critics association, journalist. For a long time Julia has been studying the Buddhist and Far Eastern culture and arts. She will show up with a topic “Calligraphy and painting: unity in the opposite”. It tells about cultural and traditional mutual influence; Julia will demonstrate calligraphy works, paintings, art pieces made of bronze, and instruments from the “noble scholar cabinet”…

The Julia Larionova’s presentation will take place on Saturday November 7 at 6 pm, pavilion 7a. 

On November 8 the master-classes program boasts Grigory Marakuev, an icon painter and calligrapher who writes in the Old Russian script of 15-17-s centuries.

Since the 18th century the specialists have been taking the Old Russian script as something frozen and old fashioned.

“The Old Russian script is really interesting” – this is the name of the live performance by Grigory Marakuev.
