"A figure with meat"
Francis Bacon, 1954
The meat carcasses hanging from the ceiling are shown from an angle as if the pope were an angel and the two pieces of meat were wings behind his back. Bacon wanted to show that there is only one step from a holy man to a bloodsucker and cruel monster.

"The psychedelic attack of the blue rabbits"
Golosiy Oleg, 1990
The painting became a symbol of an endless and fruitless struggle with himself. Golosiy did not believe in any global changes. In the form of such an attack, he embodied the desperate, always futile desire of people to escape to the light.

Nicolas de Stael
His name is much better known in Europe than in his homeland - in Russia it remained undeservedly forgotten for many years. Despite the fact that in Europe his works were valued at millions of dollars.
He earned recognition during his lifetime and became one of the most famous artists in France, but at the age of 41, unexpectedly for all decided to leave life. For many, the reasons for this act remained a mystery.

"The Death of Marat"
Edvard Munch, 1907
In his inimitable manner, the author depicts a nude Charlotte Corday moments after she has brutally stabbed Marat to death. The imposing brushstrokes and abundance of blood add to the frightening effect of the painting.

"Big Bear"
Voligamsi Rinat, 2009
The artist told me that his friends often came to his studio. They would go out to smoke in the dark corridor. The lights of their cigarettes would freeze in the darkness like stars, or they would start to move. These observations led the artist to an unusual series of works.

"Fallen angels with bound wings"
Yulia Litvinova, 2016
Children from dysfunctional families grow up in filth and vice. Their wings are bound from birth, there is no opportunity to break out of the vicious circle, and therefore no future. Beatings, chained to radiators to keep them out of the way. And when they grow up, the social bottom awaits them: drug addiction, prostitution and other plagues of modern society. They have never seen anything else and, unfortunately, will never see anything else.
