Summary

"Through his masterful work, Gerli Korzhev depicts mankind's resilience, nobility and strength of character, often in the face of harsh circumstances. His art transcends national and ethnic boundaries and connects us to one another through the commonality of struggle and sacrifice. Contemporary Russian art historians consistently refer to Mr. Korzhev as one of the most influential artists of 20th-century Russian painting."--Jacket
