Роман ЛебедевIt will be interesting to see what Voznesenskaya Gorka and Melkovskaya Sloboda used to look like. I was there a couple of times fishing by the river, the place has changed a lot. I'll go to the exhibition when it opens.

Сергей МакаровIt’s interesting, Roman, that you fished there - I only walked in those places a couple of years ago, everything was already built up and it was almost unrecognizable. But there will definitely be old views at the exhibition; the artist is good at transforming old photos into paintings. When it opens, I’ll go too, maybe I’ll see you there.

Константин КозловIt’s interesting that Roman was fishing by the river there - I also cast a fishing rod in those parts a couple of times before everything was built up. I’ll definitely look at the exhibition; I’d like to compare the old views with what’s on the hill now. When exactly does it open?

Павел МихайловRoman, I remember sitting just at that bend below the hill with a fishing rod, it used to be quiet there. I’m also going to the exhibition, I wonder how they compared the old species with the current ones. Can you tell me exactly when they open?

Антон ОрловYes, Sergey, in my childhood the river was cleaner there and there were fish, but now there are all new buildings. The old photos at the exhibition really come to life in the paintings - especially the view from the hill to the settlement. When you go, write, maybe we’ll actually meet at the courtyard.

Галина ГолубеваYes, Roman liked to sit there with a fishing rod right there by the bend; I remember how he talked about the roach he was dragging. I also visited those places a couple of times before everything was built up. The exhibition opens on July 12, come, there are both old sketches and modern views hanging side by side.
М
Максим ВолковI remember that bend, I sat there with a fishing rod a couple of times about twenty years ago, until everything was built up. The exhibition opens on Thursday, July 14. Where do you go with your fishing rod now, if it’s not a secret?
