As from today, the photographic exhibition Le maître et Marguerite, Création Photographique, which had a tremendous success in Paris, is shown in Moscow. It introduces 50 marvellous pictures of fashion photographer Jean-Daniel Lorieux. The exhibition was opened by the French movie star Alain Delon.

«Basically, many things in this project occurred spontaneously», Evgeny Yakovlev said. «I cannot say exactly how I came to the idea of it. And it was pretty much the same for the choice of the stars. We decided that it was necessary to create something inspired by a known novel. The first one of which we could think was Mikhail Bulgakov’s The Master and Margarita.»
«At the beginning everything was conceived as a commercial thing. But while working on this project, we ended up understanding that it was necessary to think only of artistic side. The international team consisted of 60 professionals. All were blazed for this project. Everything went so easily, as by itself. You can say that it was not a job, but a creation that brought pleasure.»
After its successful presentation at the Ariane Dandois gallery in Paris at the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009, this exhibition moved to London and New York, to end eventually on its starting point, as a return to its roots, in Moscow, at the Spiridonov House, right behind the corner of the place where the master met Margarita, where Mikhail Bulgakov met Elena Sergueevna, and where your webmaster met his third spouse.
