St. Petersburg Creative Union of Artists

Saint Petersburg, Russia
The history of the Creative Union of Artists dates back to 1918, when the constituent assembly of the First Professional Labor Union of Artists of Petrograd was held in Petrograd. Then the Union included representatives of the main creative associations of artists: "Community of Artists", "A. Kuindzhi Society", "Society of Individualist Artists", "Circle of Artists", "Society of Russian Watercolorists", etc.

The Union incorporates almost the entire spectrum of artists of the former underground and their followers.

From the very beginning of its existence, its goal was to unite professionals and art enthusiasts, regardless of their political or ideological beliefs.
