The project of the St. Petersburg painter Alexander Novoselov addresses the theme of historical memory and personal experience. Through portraits, landscapes, and industrial motifs, the artist speaks about family, labor, and the inner choice of a person. The painting combines the traditions of Soviet realism, the "harsh style," and a vivid sense of time. The exhibition is structured as a reflection on the present, seen through the prism of the past. The focus is on human memory, where the personal intertwines with the national, and the everyday acquires symbolic resonance. The author works with the theme of time as a living material, allowing the viewer to read traces of history and personal experience in the images. The viewer is presented with a series of portraits of working people. Their images are devoid of external pathos but filled with internal tension and calm strength. Each figure exists in its own rhythm, and the surrounding symbols help to read character, profession, and life stance. The contrast of light and shadow and the emphasized line enhance the feeling of composure and internal concentration. Landscapes and industrial motifs complement the portrait series. Here, nature and the industrial environment are shown as a space of coexistence between man and country. The artist combines the observance of the landscape school with the emotional freedom of the painterly gesture, creating images in which reality is recognized while simultaneously feeling its generalization. A separate place is occupied by the work with documents of the past. They are reinterpreted in the language of painting and included in the visual narrative as signs of epochs. Thus, an artistic chronicle is formed, where history is revealed through image, color, and composition, rather than through direct narration or illustration. Where to go in Kazan, KudaGo knows.
