From July to October 2011, the mobile exhibition of contemporary sculpture “The Creators of Worlds” was held in Satka, Chelyabinsk Region. The works of successors of the great dynasties of Russian artists: Mikhail Pereyaslavets, Alexander and Igor Burganovs and Ivan Korzhev, were exhibited in the interior and in the public garden of Magnezit Cultural Center. This event was held during the year falling on 110th anniversary of Magnezit Group, so it became one of the most important cultural events in the city, gathering more than 15 thousand viewers. Authors of sculptures, as well as executives of Satka municipal district and Magnezit Group management participated in the opening ceremony.

“The Creators of Worlds” is the largest exhibitions for the last twenty years, combining the works of leading Russian contemporary sculptors, recognized both in Russia and abroad. Works of each sculptor are notable for unique authors style and represent a new reality, created by ways of the sculptural arts. In the hands of master sculptors, bronze, steel, glass, plastic, wood amazingly transform into the unique worlds, where every author completely dominates the minds and feelings of art lovers.

Today, these sculptures are held in collections of the leading museums, decorate the squares of different cities and enrich the private collections in many countries. The non-standard approach to organization of this exposition will help to significantly extend the viewing audience.
