Sergeĭ Kovalʹskiĭ

This catalogue of the Museum of Nonconformist Art (St. Petersburg) publishes paintings, drawings, and work in other media by the artist who galvanized the nonconformist movement in Leningrad art circles during the 1970s and 1980s. Photos of art exhibitions in private apartments and the first public shows of unofficial art convey the tense milieu of the late Soviet period. -- Summary written by John W.
