Watch the new episode of the series "The Artist Speaks" by Tretyakov gallery.
The work of Victor Pivovarov is directly related to the emergence of a conceptual school in Soviet unofficial art. While maintaining the line of traditional techniques in fine art (painting and graphics), Pivovarov’s focus is on visual experiments and the study of the boundaries of genres, and he became, along with Ilya Kabakov, a creator of the format of the concept album where word and image are combined. Although the artist has been living and working in Prague since 1982, his work has in many respects retained the context of the Moscow art life that influenced the character of his artistic language developed at the intersection of book illustrations, information graphics and the graphic repertoire of surrealism, that easily adjusts inner connections to numerous phenomena in the world history of art, from the Russian avant-garde to the art of the Renaissance.
