Petr Gorban': edinstvennaia tema - chelovechestvo / Pyotr Gorban': Sole Theme - Humanity

St. Petersburg: Erarta, 2010. pb. These paintings and drawings done from the 1960s through the 1980s show a vital strain of Soviet art: representative yet not realistic, unconventional in subtle ways such as tone, color, and composition. When Gorban' chose typical themes of the period - workers, factories, demonstrations - he gave them a twist that saves them from unctuous socialist realism. And in his drawing cycle "Red Bible" he added contemporary realities to biblical events. 60p., approx. 50 color illus., Rus. and ENGLISH. Item #1493
