27 мая 2013

By Nina Mozheyko: Within three years, the Revived Pictures project has been exhibited at almost all major cultural areas of the country from the National Art Museum to the Opera Theater. The Chelyuskinites Park has been chosen not by accident.  This is a public and prestigious place visited by about 1000 people at weekends.
Lesya Kodush, singer: My picture was the first to come alive. Everyone was nervous, but the result was a success. The picture was painted with no Photoshop with the help of professional make-up artists.
To create a portrait, the main hero had to go through all the stages of preparation from make-up to costumes.
Daria Domracheva, twice world champion in biathlon: I was very interested in participating in this project. This was the first experience of this kind for me. It was little difficult to get the feel of the image suggested to me, but I tried as best I could.
The sport news presenter Anna Eismont also took part in the project. In total, the gallery consists of 110 portraits. The exhibition will last until November.
