Catalogue Note

A leading exponent of the Vladimir School, Yuri Matushevski’s work was exhibited not only throughout the Soviet Union but also abroad. The present landscape reveals the artist’s preference for intense, contrasting colours and for thick expressionist brushwork which was characteristic for the Vladimir School and contrasting the strict academic standards dictated by the Union of Artists of the USSR.
