How to talk about faith when there are prohibitions and silence around? In this thematic excursion, you will see how unofficial artists of the USSR returned religious motifs and biblical themes to painting. Art historian Daria Gushchina will help you read hidden meanings, see details, and feel the inner nerve of the era. In the Soviet decades, religious themes were pushed out of public culture. Churches changed their purpose, and the image of faith became almost invisible. But painting remembered biblical themes and the language of symbols - and it was in unofficial art that this line continued to live. In the thematic excursion at the Underground Museum, you will analyze how nonconformist artists spoke about the spiritual when the "official" scene was silent. Where in the works are references to iconography hidden, why do motifs of sacrifice, salvation, and trials appear, how personal faith or doubt turns into an artistic gesture. You will see how a biblical theme can sound modern: through metaphor, through allusion, through working with the image of a person and their choices. A separate focus is the life of artists outside institutions. What did it mean to create art "on the side" from exhibition committees, what themes became an internal support, how the language of form changed when direct conversation was risky. The excursion provides an opportunity to compare different approaches: for some, spirituality manifests as quiet prayer, for others - as debate and search for answers. The meeting will be led by art historian and museum staff member Daria Gushchina. She helps to look closely: to notice composition, color, and details that set the tone, and to connect them with the historical context. The excursion is suitable for those interested in Soviet culture, art history, and the theme of inner freedom. You can come without special preparation - only the desire to ask questions and discuss what you see is important. Where to go in Yekaterinburg, KudaGo knows.
