Vera Mylnikova (1950) graduated from I. Repin
Institute of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture
where she majored in monumental painting under
her father Andrei Mylnikov. Since 1978 she has
been a member of the USSR Union of Artists. In
1984 the artist participated in the Autumn
Salon in Paris. She has been a frequent
exhibitor in many Russian and international group
exhibitions. Her solo shows were held in Hamburg
(1992),  Paris (1994, 1995), at the Academy
Museum in St. Petersburg (2001).  In 2003 Vera
Mylnikova was awarded a Silver Medal of the
Russian Academy of Arts. Vera Mylnikova is an
author of both easel and monumental works
including tapestry for the reception hall of the
House of  Soviets of the Russian Federation,
mosaic panel for the Institute of Medicine in
Cheboksary,  painting of the plafond  for the
Institute of Agriculture in Novosibirsk. The
artists portraits, still lives, landscapes,
stained glasses and paintings reveal her innate
feeling of harmony and musicality. Traditions of
realism are combined in her work with tireless
searches for new plastic structures. The
pictorial and emotional expression, skill in
composition, diversity of colors are the most
distinguished features of her works that are of
constant interest to the public.
Beauty is a mystery. The ancient African masks,
Egyptian pyramids, Greek sculpture - in them are
to be found the greatest degree of harmony which
stands in mysterious connection to the world of
mysticism that so fascinates me. I try to try to
express these achievements in my works. I am
interested in a combination of conventional and
living elements, fictional and real. Composition,
colour, texture - I exploit all these in order to
move beyond and overcome space.
