'Young Russian Artists' at the Shattuck Gallery

 ''Marta'' (oil on canvas), by Valeriya Lakrisenko, in the show "Young Russian Artists,'' at the Dedee Shattuck Gallery, Westport, Mass., through June 25.

This exciting show presents the work of six  brilliant young (all under 30) painters from St. Petersburg. All are graduates or current students at the Imperial Academy of Arts there. This institution maintains traditional Russian painting techniques and style.  

The Shattuck Gallery notes that the show comes when relations between Russia and the United States are tense and complicated. "Viewers will see a side of Russia not usually depicted in the news.''
