I am not the only one to think about Modigliani while browsing Slava's portfolio but this is just a small reminder that first there was a big drama and now here is just a good set of artworks inspired by old masters. Originally from Southern Russia, Slava Fokk is Moscow based acclaimed artist who is saving traditions of classic painting in contemporary art.

On the latest Behance Portfolio Reviews organized by Designcollector in Saint-Petersburg, young product designer (that's already a rare profession for Russia) Yaroslav Misonzhnikov shown us the lamp called "Ugol" (eng. "Corner"). "Plain form and performance is combined with unique mode of setting it up on a table, by the way already received a patent. All you need is a table angle and board of a standard thickness. A normal working table is usually from 1 to 2,5 cm thick. The lamp is putting on the angle and rests inclined by it’s weight, then the angle between lamp and the table depends on the thickness of the table itself. Ugol means “corner” In Russian language. The object is projected for recently founded by the designer himself Saint-Petersburg producer Imenno-design. The lamp will be realized in a limited edition and released in Saint-Petersburg and Moscow boutiques and also on-line in Imenno-design brand shop in the web."

There is a long story to tell if the words "Kin-Dza-Dza" reminds you nothing. Briefly this is a title of the famous Soviet sci-fi (with cyberpunk elements) movie directed by gifted Georgi Daneliya in 1986. Few years ago legendary director decide to go with animated version of the movie and just few days ago the fresh cartoon hit Russian cinemas. What I'd like to focus on is the environment drawings done by famous russian digital artist Alex Andreyev, we shared few of them below as well as both movies trailers.

Dark scary digital art of Artem Semenov tells me not to visit the attic or bad sites at night. He is a member of SlashTHREE and has few of his work on a high rotation during the last few years I can't rid off from the feeling that Anton was awesomely inspired (or just reminds) by the artworks of darkest illustrator in Russia - Cmart and fiction environment artist Alex Andreev
