    Well, first of all you need to understand that the flat surface between the four corners of the canvas is capable of transforming itself into “space.” Working with the ambiguous nature of a painting—transforming it—this was suggested by Favorsky.

    A long-term friend and muse of Bulatov, Nekrasov’s texts are frequently integrated into the artist’s paintings, as succinct and often cutting or sarcastic commentary on the incongruities of Soviet society.

    “Russian art always attempted to interfere with human life, to change it, fix it. This also applies to the unofficial art of the 1960s and 1970s or, as it is now called, the ‘second avant-garde.’ There is a major difference here, however: now the goal was not to change the surrounding life—social or political.
