Special Bonus - Interview With Filmmaker Michael Craig!
This month I have conducted an exciting interview with a most interesting filmmaker, Michael Craig, who creates films on Russian Avant-garde and its artists.
The interview deals with the first film Michael did, about Alexander Rodchenko.
This 13-pages interview is given free, in PDF format to everyone who subscribes to the Gallery Forum. I once again ask for your help at this beginning period to get the conversations going, so others will want to join you and contribute to you and to themselves. You can also leave there suggestions, ideas and other feedback regarding both the forum and the Gallery website, at the specially made "Suggestions and Feedback" subforum.

A New Artist Added at Two Existing Categories
This month I have added a new artist in the Circle of Artists group, which has been opened last June, and contained only one artist so far.
The page of Alexei Pakhomov in the Mass and Agit Art category will also be prepared shortly, to complete the picture. I shall send an announcement of this, if completed within the week, and announce on the Forum, as well.
In addition, I have re-made the page for Boris Kustodiev in the Mass and Agit Art category, whose page in the World of Art group was re-made last month:
