Aleksey Beliayev Guintovt is one of the most prominent Moscow representatives of “New Seriousness”, which has arisen out of the non-existence in the beginning of the nineties on the banks of the Neva. Being wholeheartedly committed to this movement with its fragile aristocratism and perpetual supplication for the prolongation of the beautiful, Belyaev-Gintovt, nevertheless, compels one to think that the “New Empire Style” will naturally become the logical continuation of “New Classicism”.
His powerful imagery, in the Moscow way, paradoxically combines the traditions of Russian Orthodox icon painting with trends of the Russian Avant-garde and Constructivism, and the totalitarian classicism of the Soviet big style — with the formal “artificiality” of American Pop-Art.
However, precisely in this point does Belyaev-Gintovt, with the insidiousness of the true revolutionary-conservative, brilliantly refute the slightest suspicion about his alleged kinship with the predominating ideology of the total art-business, by impressing each image with his own palms and in so doing guaranteeing them indisputable authenticity.
The exposition Motherland — Daughter includes approximately twenty monumental objects. Pierced by the indomitable male desire to protect the weakened tormented Mother, Belyaev-Gintovt adopts the Motherland as a daughter, taking upon himself full responsibility for her future
