The first cross-project, inaugurating the partnership between pop/off/art and Anna Nova galleries, a solo exhibition by renown Russian abstract painter Vlad Kulkov – is on view at pop/off art gallery from January 26.

 

‘Vlad Kulkov is the quintessence of St. Petersburg visuality: a bit wild but elegant, messy but at the same time precise and even neat, incoherent, but in fact truly poetic and full of meanings. Everyone tends to think of St. Petersburg as a classical figurative painting, when Vlad refutes it with his art: he is a highly peculiar abstractionist and influenced by Mikhnov-Voytenko, a legendary nonconformist from Leningrad, a kind of local Pollock’, says art critic and founder of pop/off/art gallery Sergey Popov.

 

The exhibition is called ‘Alucinao’ meaning ‘hallucination’ from Portuguese. Phonetically, the word can be heard as ‘Alley see now’. The exposition is built around this basis. Vlad's works takes us on a journey into the worlds of our own associations.
