Anya Zholud included in the list of the Best Russian contemporary artists (ARTEEX). It is not just difficult, but extremely difficult to be a modern artist! Abundance of information gives birth to a great amount of similar ideas of many people all over the world practically at the same time. The contemporary artist and sculptor Anya Zholud not only managed to stand out of the crowd of artists , but to establish herself as an original author , whose works are valued and discussed all over the world ! (kayrosblog.ru). Her installations of a curved metal rod, sheets of chipboards and concrete got the greatest popularity with public. Apart from sculpture, Anya creates paintings, which call out with her installations in many ways. The method founded by her is just the top of artistic rationalism. Firstly, it is a witty plastic finding with a great design potential: the metal rod is like a pencil line and the interiors created by it are in some ways pictures in 3-D space, technical graphics that has become volumetric. Secondly, this method has been rooted in a very noble tradition: since times of Goethe and German Romantics love to contour drawing was considered as a feature of an artist- intellectual, longing to penetrate into the core of nature, to find out its hidden schemes (kommersant.ru).
