Венецианское танго (2008) Painting by Evgeny Demakov

I am a painter from Russia. I work in various genres: a plot picture, a portrait, a landscape, a still-life, mural paintings.
I was born in 1968 in the city of Ivanovo. Now I live and work in Moscow.
In 1992 I graduated with honors from the Moscow Art School in memory of 1905.
In 1998 I graduated from the Russian Academy of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture Ilya Glazunov, also with honors.
I am a Fellow of the Government of the Russian Federation (1995) and President of the Russian Federation (1997).
I am a member of the Union of Artists of Russia since 2000 and
member of the Creative Association "New Wanderers" from 2017.
I have been active in exhibitions since 1991.
My paintings are in the museum of the Russian Academy of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture (Moscow), in the meeting of Mezhregiongaz (Moscow), in the Academy of Security, Defense and Law Enforcement (Moscow), in private collections in Russia, the USA , Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, China, Taiwan.
I like to paint pictures on historical, religious and mythological subjects - they are intriguing, because the past is surrounded by mystery. But modernity attracts me, too. One of the areas of my work is a portrait. Basically, these are portraits of famous people (for example, portraits of actors), portraits of relatives and, of course, custom portraits, to which I try to be as creative as possible.
 Art is a window to the artist's inner world. The more interesting this world is, the more interesting the paintings created by it. In my opinion, the task of art is to reveal to people the beauty of the visible and the depth of the invisible.
