“Vladimir Andreenkov, adhering to visible mathematics and clear-cut forms in their perfection, is not locking the space of life but is wonderfully transforming it beyond blurred human consciousness. He succeeds to make an exact from an approximate and he makes you, if not to think, at least to get mobilized internally. As a rule, a person focuses simply looking at a direct line. Line - step. Step - action. Action - legacy.”
Vladimir Emelianovich Andreenkov was born in 1930. He studied at the Academy of Art and the Moscow State Academic Art Institute named after V.I. Surikov. He has been a member of the Organization of Artists since 1962. Already in the 60’s Andreenkov, along with other bright artists of “diffirent art”, by now acknowledged and known, such as Ilya Kabakov, Ivan Chuykov, and Vladimir Yankilevsky, was searching for his own unique artistic style.
The art of Andreenkov continues the tradition of Russian constructivism and are reminiscent of the great neo-constructivist works by foreign artists Josef Albers, Max Bill, and Richard Paul Lohse

Gallery Shazina presents from 19 April to 19 May 2007 personal exhibition dedicated to 105 years of Ivan Titov
Ivan Titov’s artistic realism is like a good documentary film; good meaning genuine, unvarnished. Life as it is.
Painting, which reflects the melting time, but doesn’t permit to forget. Painting, which gives a wonderful possibility to unwind the time back, and look more attentively into the eyes of Abkhazian boy in a red hood. The eyes with such a dignity, so wise, that you want to ask “Do you .....
