Oleg Kulik

“Kulik is one of the most radical and profound artists working today. The Russian context — both Soviet and post-Soviet — from which he springs provides a key to an understanding of his motivation, but his message is universal: ‘Anthropomorphism has exhausted itself’”. (Jonathan Watkins, Ikon Gallery, Birmingham).  This is the first large catalogue after fifteen years of regular outrages. No single artist seemed to have experienced such a storm of criticism, as Oleg Kulik. But few artists have aroused such admiration.
