 | | The group was oriented towards the culture of the “Silver Age”, with its mystifications and quasi-historicism, its artistic and behavioural flamboyance. |
 | | In the works of Timur Novikov, Oleg Kotelnikov, Vadim Ovchinnikov, Ivan Sotnikov, Oleg Zayka, Evgeny Kozlov, Inal Savchenkov, Kirill Khozanovich etc, members of the movement, we see a tendency to the desemanticisation of painterly space and its components. |
