August 7, 2019 at the Voronezh Regional Art Museum. I.N. Kramskoy hosted the grand opening of the solo exhibition of the Voronezh photographer Mikhail Kvasov.

The opening of the exhibition began with the words of the head of the exhibition and exhibition department of the museum Oksana Lepneva, who noted that the projects of Mikhail Kvasov invariably reflect life, people and beauty in all its manifestations.

The photographer, a member of the Union of Photographers of Russia Andrei Paukov, emphasized that Mikhail Ivanovich did not change his genre for a quarter of a century, wished the master to maintain his creative potential and continue to delight the audience with his new masterpieces.

Ivan Chukhnov, Honored Worker of Culture of the Russian Federation, former head of the Voronezh Department of Culture, said in his speech that he was sincerely proud of the local Union of Photographers, whose activity demonstrates the growing level of skill of remarkable photographers, who are quite numerous in Voronezh. And, of course, in addition to numerous exhibitions, one of the most significant moments in the activities of the Union’s regional branch is the publication of various photo albums and books reflecting the history of our city and its people.

Elena Chaplygina, Chairman of the Board of the Voronezh Regional Branch of the Union of Photo Artists of Russia, noted that this project is among the anniversary personal exhibitions dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the creation of the regional association in Voronezh. The exhibition reflects an eternal theme in art, glorifying the beauty of a naked female body, and although the attitude to this topic can be different, there is no doubt one thing – everyone strives for harmony, beauty, something that will be remembered with warmth. Viewers were wished to see behind each photograph, behind each image, the author’s reverent attitude to their models, and to be able to read a certain story related to each individual work.

The author of the works himself was laconic, noting that he was very happy with the event, thanked everyone who had come to the opening and presented the museum with a selection of publications with his works on Voronezh and its inhabitants.
