Art Paris Art Fair 2014: report on Russian creation
This diverse variety of art work is increasingly attracting international attention, as observed by Oksanna Salamatina, founder of her eponymous gallery, which supports both emerging and well- established artists. She spoke to AMA about the buzz surrounding Andrei Sharov’s pieces in her stand (C23). With a punk aesthetic, Sharov produces difficult and uncompromising portraits, whose vibrant colours recall works by Ingres, Matisse or Warhol. The interest marks a positive introduction to the fair for the gallery, which is committed to raising the international profile of its artists.
