	introduction
		Alexander Sokolov is one of the outsanding modern iconographers of Russia.
		However, Alexander Sokolov thinks that a work of art could be called an “icon” only if technical details, artistic value, sacramental meaning, and the canon are joined in a creative and personal way.
		Since Alexander Sokolov is a versatile artist, he focused on the study of icons, frescoes, mosaics, carving on precious stones, and also painting on mother-of-pearl.

	CONTEXT - This Week in Arts and Ideas from The Moscow Times
		While Sokolov immediately began marketing the bric-a-brac on smaller premises, the larger items went into storage or were restored at a workshop belonging to his firm, and are only now going on display in what he calls the "gallery" section of the new store.
		Sokolov calls himself a staryovshchik -- a dealer in old things -- and, unlike owners of standard secondhand stores, he pays for items right away, rather than selling on commission.
		While some customers have used the store to furnish their apartments or hostel rooms on a budget, Sokolov sees Kulttovary's mission as teaching people that old things are an essential part of interior decor, even in very wealthy households.

	-- Beliefnet.com
		WASHINGTON -- Alexander Sokolov was 17 years-old when he stumbled upon a crossroads for his love of art and Orthodox Christianity, his newly adopted religion: painting religious icons.
		Sokolov's exhibit of nearly a dozen icons -- venerated images of Jesus, the Virgin Mary or saints -- brings to Washington a religious art tradition that extends as far back as the 6th century.
		Emperors and Orthodox church leaders in the 8th century tried to stop the use of icons in Orthodox worship fearing it bordered on idolatry, sparking a doctrinal debate -- the iconoclast controversy -- that continued for the next 100 years.
