Yevgeny Rachyov exhibition in Moscow

If you’ve followed me for more than a month you will recognize the style of Yevgeny Rachyov’s illustration. I know I post him a lot, but I do love his works. There’s an exhibition going in Moscow right now that has numerous of his original works–illustration as well as wooden sculpture (those have not been exhibited at all since the 1960s). All of those come from the artist’s family archive.

The exhibition is only open until November 20, so if you’re in Moscow I encourage you to go (and send me pictures and reports). I wish I could go!!! :(

Exhibition “Animals of Yevgeny Rachyov”
Location: Otkryty Klub Gallery, Spiridonovka 9/2, Moscow
Open 4 pm to 10 pm daily except Wednesday

Reporting from the children’s postcard exhibition in Moscow! These are simple phone shots, but you can get the idea. There are all sorts of postcards there; holidays, illustration, fairy tales, educational etc. About half of the exhibition are Russian Empire postcards (pre-Soviet Union). I don’t know much about them, but I was impressed at the number and diversity.

For Soviet postcards, I was mostly “Oh I have this one”, but also there were a number of rare postcards which I only yet hope to find for my collection.
