The oeuvre of Russian photographer Sergei Bratkov (b.1960) is strongly influenced by his origin and has roots in Soviet Realism. He makes series of portraits of various groups of ‘normal’ people such as labourers, prostitutes, children, soldiers, etc. In his portraits the protagonists transcend their commonplace.
Sergei Bratkov participated in the Russian Pavilion at the 2003 Venice Biennale and his work has also been included in various international group exhibitions that focus on Russian artists, as well as numerous solo exhibitions.
