About the artist

Elena Darikovich was born in Moscow in 1951. She has worked as a photographer since 1976, but is also known as a painter. At one time she worked very closely with Boris Savelev – they seem to have encouraged and inspired each other to further focus on abstraction and light-play. Savelev’s work can be brash; Darikovich is thoughtful, intelligent and intuitive. More than the other photographers of the 70s group, Darikovich allows the people in her photographs a strong presence, but her work is at the same time exceptionally rigorous and formal.
