An abstract painting by Oleg Yakovlev is represented in tandem with remarkable sculpture by Lev Smorgon. "Sculpture by Lev Smorgon in bronze Lion is built on an active plastic, forming free and bold rhythms on an expressive, almost picturesque, elaboration of surface, a richness of compositional – textured strokes, a play of light and shade, volume and void, gap and junction. It is chamber and intimate, verbose and emotionally saturated "- Elena Vasilevska, Section Head of sculpture of the State Russian Museum.

After participating in the famous Moscow exhibition of nonconformists in 1975, he lives and works in Paris, actively participates in prestigious art – projects.

We are talking about representation of internal – mental processes, matrices of consciousness, perception works. I think Yakovlev is busy exactly in this. "- Alexander Borovsky, head of the newest trends of the State Russian Museum.
