This category brings together articles about Nizhny Novgorod artists, sculptors, and other people whose work involves the creation of works of art. The city's creative life is represented here through the lives of specific authors: the painter Alexander Lavrov, who works at the intersection of flat and three-dimensional imagery, the sculptor Nikolai Mikhailovich Chugurin, whose biography spans most of the Soviet period in the history of Nizhny Novgorod, and the artist Yuri Ivanovich Pridanov — each in his own way reflecting the region's artistic tradition.
