Evgeny Mikhailovich Nutovich - a collector born of the “Thaw”
The research is dedicated to the collector of the “new times” Evgeny Nutovich. He restored the main process of private collecting in the Soviet Thaw (Ottepel) Period - 1950-1960 years, which was interrupted for a long time, and the interest in the new phenomena in Russian arts. The analysis of the process of collecting shows us special origins and methods used by E. Nutovich, and the circle of painters represented in his collection. The very important is the understanding of the unique place of his creation among collections of his time and special value of it for modern cultural community.
