What began as a personal hobby
in the 1960's became the foundation for one of the most remarkable studios in
the world: where the best wood-carvers, painters and designers from the remote
Russian art villages could team up and create the wonderful folk art from
throughout Russia. With perestroika, G. DeBrekht Artistic Studios became a
reality, and the art or Russia came to the world.
Nestled in the valleys and along
the great rivers of the vast Russian countryside, tiny remote villages have
nurtured artistic skills for centuries. In Fedoskino, the first Russian
lacquer art miniatures were made. In Kholui, they painted rich icons for
nearly a Millennium, as in Palekh and Mstera. In Zhostovo, decorative
painters made trays and artistic brooches. Today, the best artists from
these and other art villages carry on their traditions now free to be seen by
the world.
