"Dream and reality. Viktor Popkov 1932-1974 "opens the programme of events dedicated a year of Italy-Russia tourism. Free entry.
Until 27 April 2014 the
Ca 'Foscari University, home to the most famous university as well as the grand
Venetian palace on the
Grand Canal, will host the exhibition that for the first time presents an anthology of the work by the famous
Russian painter Viktor Popkov to Italian visitors.
Viktor Popkov, the most representative Russian artist of the mid-900, has been repeatedly protagonist of art biennials of Venice and major exhibitions in Paris in the 60s. It is perhaps the first time, though, that his anthology crosses the borders of Russia. After the exhibition in Moscow, "Dream and Reality" now lands in Venice with 45 of his most significant works for which the shots by photographer Igor 'Pal'min, master of Russian photography, will serve as the perfect counterpoint. The show, after Venice, will move to the West Wing halls at Somerset House, London from 22 May to 24 June."
