"THE PRESENT IS FILLED WITH THE PAST, LIKE A LIVING SPONGE WITH WATER: VIA THE WORK OF MEMORY THE LIGHT COMES FROM THE PAST AND HIGHLIGHTS, GLOWS FROM THE DARK WHAT DOESN’T BELONG TO A MINUTE."
Oleg Vasiliev was an artist. In the 1960s, Vasiliev with Eric Bulatov designed children's books. Starting from the 1990s he lived and worked in the United States. In the 1990s–2000s, the artist developed ideas of the interaction of space with surface, color with light. Oleg Vasiliev introduces structuring planes into the painting, builds up light pressure, creating “high and deep spaces”. His works are in collections of the Tretyakov Gallery, the Russian Museum, museums and private collections in Russia and the United States.
