Yuri Pavlov is a well-known painter, belonging to St. Petersburg's lyrico-Romantic school. The beginning of his creative career coincided with the first wave of democratization of the Russian society: N.S. Kruschev's "warming" of the 1960's. His search for expressive form and experiments with color brought him close to the Artists' Association's "left" wing. While Pavlov was not officially affiliated with any leftist movement of the time, his artistic preferences have for many years tied him to progressively thinking artists, who asserted the artistic individual's right for free self-expression, incompatible with any pre-determined norms or stereotypes. A painter of a very wide profile, Pavlov creates portraits and still lives, landscapes and genre paintings.
