This page gathers what is known about the works of Irina Grabkova in the Don Foundation collection: dates, formats and the make-up of the groups. About the artist we give only what could be confirmed in open sources: Irina Grabkova is connected with the Rostov contemporary art scene of the 2000s.
The Don Foundation collection holds 8 works by Irina Grabkova. All of them are paintings dated to the second half of the 2000s, 2006 and 2008. These are original works, not reproductions or print editions: each entry records the artist, the year and the dimensions, while the medium, provenance and expert reports are published whenever such information exists. The wider painting section of the collection is Painting, and the full list of names is in Artists.
About the artist we state only what can be checked. In October 2003 a joint project by Irina Grabkova and Vadim Grabkov, "An Address to the Earthlings", was shown at the Kukhnya (Kitchen) apartment gallery in Rostov-on-Don – a self-organised space on Lermontovskaya Street that ran from 2003 to 2006. Her name appears in the list of participants of the exhibition "On Mortality in Art. In Memory of Nikolai Konstantinov" (M-Gallery, Rostov-on-Don, 2008, curated by Sergey Sapozhnikov). One further record is the video documentation "Focus Rostov" (2019) in the Russian Art Archive Network, where Irina Grabkova is named among the artists shown. Dates of birth, training and a full exhibition history could not be confirmed in open sources, so there is no extended biography here.
The works titled Azov-City are dated 2008 and measure 150 × 200 cm. The scale is large and painting of this size needs a long wall, which is worth taking into account when planning where to hang it. We hold no statement by the artist about these works, so we offer no reading of the title or of the images and stay with what the catalogue records.
The works titled Love-Parade are dated 2006 and measure 80 × 100 and 100 × 80 cm. They are the earlier part of the group by date and the more intimate one by scale. The Latin spelling of the title is kept exactly as it is recorded in the description of the works.
