​I. Academic Drawing Competition

​A division for those who see the foundation of art in impeccable command of form, tone, and anatomy. Plaster casts, life model, architecture — here fundamental skills are tested, the ones on which all visual creativity is built.

​Nominations:

  1. ​Plaster Head Drawing — the study of classical form, chiaroscuro modelling, and the plasticity of antique models.
  2. Nude Life Drawing — mastery in conveying proportions, anatomy, and the living movement of the human body.
  3. Anatomical Drawing — understanding the structure of the body, studying muscles, bones, and their interaction in movement.
  4. Academic Still Life — mastering composition, tonal relationships, and textures through the depiction of objects.
  5. Architectural Drawing — precision of perspective, rhythm of lines, and the conveyance of space in the depiction of buildings and structures.
  6. Sketches and Studies — speed, expressiveness, and the ability to capture the essential in a brief gesture or movement.
  7. Compositional Sketch — the search for a harmonious solution, the construction of narrative and plasticity in preliminary development.

​II. Easel Graphics Competition

​This competition features independent graphic works in various techniques — from watercolour to printmaking. Here, not only mastery is valued, but also the originality of the concept, compositional integrity, and expressiveness of the graphic language.

​Nominations:

  1. ​Watercolour — transparency of colour, lightness, aerial perspective, and the spontaneity of a lively brushstroke.
  2. Pastel — velvety texture, soft transitions, and richness of colour in the dry colour technique.
  3. Pencil / Charcoal / Sanguine Drawing — depth of tone, expressiveness of line and stroke in classical graphic materials.
  4. Printmaking (Woodcut, Etching, Lithography) — the art of the printed impression, the contrast of black and white, editioned graphics.
  5. Monotype — a unique impression where chance and improvisation become part of the artistic method.
  6. Mixed Technique in Graphics — the combination of various materials and methods in the search for an authorial graphic language.
  7. Authorial Printmaking — the creation of original impressions, where the technique of the print becomes an independent artistic statement.

​III. Book and Applied Graphics Competition

​The Book and Applied Graphics Competition includes works related to books, printed materials, and visual communication. Illustrations, posters, calligraphy, typographic compositions — everything where graphics serve a narrative or applied task.

​Nominations:

  1. ​Book Illustration — the union of word and image, where the artist becomes a co-author of a literary work.
  2. Poster and Playbill — the art of attracting attention, where brightness and conciseness of form serve a clear message.
  3. Calligraphy and Lettering — the beauty of writing, where each letter becomes an element of composition and artistic form.
  4. Type Design — the creation of harmonious typographic compositions, where the letter lives as an independent image.
  5. Ex Libris — an elegant miniature, the visual signature of a book's owner, full of symbols and hidden meanings.
  6. Vignette and Ornament — decorative elements that adorn a book, completing and connecting the space of the page.
  7. Graphic Design — the language of visual communication, where graphics serve to create a holistic image: from a business card to a corporate identity.

​It is important to participate, interesting to watch, and useful to listen. That is how one can describe the atmosphere of the "Russian Art Week" — a place where creativity, education, and communication merge into a single stream of inspiration. The "Russian Art Week" is not just a competition. It is a map of the contemporary Russian art world, marking all the main directions: from the familiar painting and graphics to bold digital experiments and monumental forms.

​In addition to the exhibition and competition programs, the "Russian Art Week" offers participants and guests an extensive educational and business program: master classes and lectures, conferences, business meetings, presentation sessions for authors, and a unique format — the "Art Ring", where leading experts engage in live dialogue about trends and the future of art.
