The presentation of seven Yekaterinburg artists in this album doesn’t seek the complete range of all artistic process happening in our city. These seven don’t even form a creative group. Here each represents his own world outlook and his inherent graceful quest. Despite difference of all their «artistic handwriting», there is definitely a certain uniting source: all of them are retaining strong connection with the tradition of intellectually significant and colorful saturated painting. Each of the authors has talent and ability to improvise easily on two-dimensional space of the canvas. Each has an aspiration for keen artistic play of mysterious sense and paradoxical symbols.
