The Magniloquence of the Russian Language, or God knows what and a bow on the side-2
The biggest doll gallery in Europe is celebrating its fourth anniversary in an amusing way. Two years ago at the first “Magniloquence” exhibition Petersburg doll artists already tried to study the etymology of some Russian swear words, and also tired to personify “swear characters”. However, within the limits of one exhibition both the creators and the characters felt cramped, so they organized another one. The creator of the gallery Varvara Skripkina and the company have prepared over twenty new exhibits. A special place in the exposition will be given to the series “The Seasons”: dolls representing Vladimir Putin as a mountain skier, a swimmer, a mushroom gatherer, etc. Last year these presidential dolls were exhibited at the State Duma, posed for glossy magazines, appeared on TV, and one collector even tried to buy them. There will be a surprise at this exhibition, a new pre-election period doll of Putin.
Exhibition takes place at the “Doll Gallery” and is open till 23th November.
