Hello to all Russian Avant-garde Gallery visitors and subscribers!

Much has happened in the last 3 months, including holidays. To all those among you who are Jewish, hope you have had good Passover and Shavuot is almost upon us! The Israelis among us - we had more days to both commemorate with those who are gone, and to celebrate our independence. The Christians - hope your Easter holidays celebration was joyful. 

Here at the Russian Avant-garde Gallery things have not stood still, either.

2 NEW Artists Added!

Now, after the website re-vamp has been completed, I am finally back to usual routine of adding new artists every month. And these two past months - February and March - I have been busy getting you acquainted with the first members of the 4 Arts Society Movement, one of the few Movements which still were without any representation on the Russian Avant-Garde Gallery.

In February I have added Vladimir Lebedev, whose only presence on the website has hitherto been limited to several works in the Mass & Agit Art category. Now I have added a full page to the 4 Art Society Movement with 199 works, as well as re-making the previous page, which now contains 43 works (21 new added). The biography has been rewritten as well.

In March-April I have added Meer Axelrod, another wonderful artist whom I have been discovering along with you. View his page in the 4 Arts Society Movement with 181 selected works.

In total - over 400 works added since the website was remade!

Downloading images

There has been a request to allow downloading the large images. Though I find it completely reasonable, the issue will however be resolved a while later. 

The reason for the images not being downloadable is for protection of the website and the bandwidth, which may otherwise get taken from other websites direct-linking to the images. It is possible to solve, but takes some complicated and time-consuming coding, so it will have to be tackled a bit later. 

In the meantime, feel free to request any image posted on site if you need it, I shall send it to you as it is posted.
