About exhibition:

NIKOLSKAYA GALLERY and POP UP MUSEUM present a solo exhibition of contemporary Russian artist Alla Polkovnichenko. The large-scale exposition gathered the works of Polkovnichenko from different periods of creativity - they are all united by nostalgic elements of the past, captured in the paintings by memories that become the artist's diary.


Polkovnichenko’s creative style dominates realism, but he is added to the exclusivity by the author’s mixture with brutalism, impressionism and other styles, the combination of which allows us to convey the artist’s immediate experience as he sees what is happening, momentary. A recognizable feature of the artist’s works is the writing with color planes, a kind of image pixelation.


Most of the stories in the work of Alla Polkovnichenko are devoted to her travels in Russia and neighboring countries. The landscape, captured in detail on canvas, often gives the impression of being seen in passing, on a walk. Looking at the work, the viewer can catch a nostalgic sensation, as if viewing tourist photographs from memorable trips.


Sometimes the paintings can be observed as a view from the window. This view is not just a landscape: the personal world of the artist opens before the viewer. Polkovnichenko, in his own way, produces the sacred initiation of the observer into his deep thoughts, feelings, and experiences. We know that a personal diary is the most intimate and intimate in the life of every person, but the artist’s business is sincerity, the artist’s task is to open his world to people.


Polkovnichenko has a rich creative biography. The artist was born in Taganrog in 1986. From 2003-2007 studied at the graphic art faculty of PI SFedU (Rostov-on-Don).
