Vladimir Ovcharenko reports:
"Oleg Ustinov for today is a bright and explosive talent, fr om his works we feel the energy of a new, something so unknown yet." The student of Sergey Bratkov shows an example to other students and us, the audience, how to move forward. pull up ... "
Eugene the Reverend narrates:

was the clap of a bottle of champagne in the trembling hands of my Russian friend, signaling the beginning of the break-up, but nevertheless he managed to tell me about the artist. Ustinov was born in the South of Russia, in Rostov, a city known for rap, jumps and a local likeness of lobster-crayfish.

a pictorial diploma. It is rumored that Ustinov adheres to the "double artistic strategy", doing both strange media projects and a heart-rending abstract painting. I warmly welcome the abstract experiments of the artist in the country where the name of Kazimir Malevich is inscribed even in the construction of residential complexes! About Malevich resembles a series of Ustinov with squares, wh ere the remnants of the avant-garde were rubbed into this geometric form, reminding me of my visit to Rosa's smelly roasted pigeons Wylie.

At the exhibition "Oleg Ustinov and Others" in VLADEY Space, the color of Contemporary Art from Russia is collected, and the problem of the Other's view is again touched upon, which will never be superfluous.
