The works of Vladimir Volk, a member of the Union of Artists of the USSR and the Russian Federation, an artist, sculptor and novelist, can be seen as part of the 6th edition of the Art Russia Contemporary Art Fair, which will be held from April 3-6 in Gostiny Dvor in Moscow.

The exhibition with the artist's works will be presented in the area of the promo pavilion "Art Russia. Classic. A New Look", dedicated to the academic art fair. The new pavilion will also feature more than 20 paintings and graphic works dedicated to Moscow, the Wolf's hometown.

"Over the years, the Wolf's artistic understanding has been exposed to places that he loved, knew well, where he lived or often visited. <...> In them, along with a deeply respectful attitude to nature, the artist's desire to discover the past of his country, about which only vague information reaches his contemporaries, the desire to restore the connection of time."- noted art critic Elena Romanova.

According to Elizaveta Frolova, the curator of the project and co-founder of the Art Russia fair, Russia has one of the strongest schools of academic art, which is famous for talented authors.

Frolova stressed that the academic art fair will promote the development of artistic traditions and bring together talents from different regions of the country.

The artist's daughter, the official representative of the Russian Interior Ministry, journalist and writer Irina Volk, will also take part in the opening of the project with the author's works.
