Non-classical Classics. Three Generations of the Pupils of the "Hermitage School" of Grigory Dluglach
6 November 1998 - 6 December 1998

The "Hermitage School" of Grigory Dluglach was a non-official creative union of the pupils of Grigory Duglach, an artist and a remarkable pedagogue. They did not simply copied works by such prominent artists as Titian, Rubens, Veronese, El Greco, Rembrandt, Poussin, Van Dyck and etc, but produced interpretations of their own. In 1960s this union gave birth to an independent trend in Soviet painting and drawing. On display were 50 paintings and drawings by artists from this school.
