Vasily Shulzhenko's scandalous paintings about the Russian hinterland.

The work of Vasily Vladimirovich is usually called nothing less than scandalous. Some advocate for the truth in his paintings, for the ability to convey those moments that are familiar to everyone in one way or another. Others accuse the artist of excessive attention to the unsightly sides of life - how is that possible, art should cultivate something sublime and beautiful in the souls of the viewer, and here are such drunken mugs and ugly bodies.

As the artist admits, the very images of such heroes take their origins in his childhood, when Vasily spent the summer at a dacha near Kasimov. And he began to paint them much later.
