​On September 11, an anniversary personal exhibition of a Krasnoyarsk artist  Avgusta Sergina will open the Boris Ryauzov Art Museum. This will be the first renovation of the exhibition after the post-quarantine opening of the museum.

The guests will be greeted by 20 paintings created by the talented artist in the period from 1995 to 2019. Among the works are bright floral still lifes and landscapes reflecting the unique beauty and grandeur of the Siberian nature.

«The name of Augusta Sergina has long been known in the artistic environment of both the city and the region. She is a prolific master and author of amazing works, so colourful, yet filled with the harmony of silence and tranquility. The healing power of genuine art lives in her canvases,» – says Maria Rusakova, director of the museum.

Augusta Sergina is a truly unique artist with an unusual destiny. Even after receiving a medical education and becoming a successful bacteriologist, she did not abandon her childhood dream of painting. After studying in 1987-1989 at the evening department of the Krasnoyarsk Art School №1, she became a full-fledged participant in city and regional exhibitions. Soon enough, the works of the Siberian artist began appearing at foreign exhibitions of fine arts. And in 2000, the first personal anniversary exhibition of Augusta Sergina was opened in the Krasnoyarsk City Museum and Exhibition Centre. The most important event in the formation of Augusta as a painter was the meeting with the famous Krasnoyarsk landscape painter Valerian Sergin, with whom she connected her further creative and life paths.

Augusta Sergina is a member of the Union of Artists of Russia and the Petrovskaya Academy of Arts and Sciences. In 2004, the artist became a laureate of the international association Art of the Nations of the World, and received the medal of the Laureate of the Petrovskaya Academy of Sciences and Arts ‘For loyalty to Russia’ in 2019. Her works are kept in the collections of the Omsk V.A. Vrubel Regional Museum of Fine Arts, the Ilansky District Museum, the Barnaul Art Museum.
