The Best Russian Contemporary Artists (Art Index) is a list (unranked art rating) of artists from Russia and the Russian abroad, no older than 1960, compiled on the basis of indicators for evaluating achievements, popularity, creative activity of authors (titles, awards of artists, participation in exhibitions, fairs, auctions, mention in art -ratings, the presence of works in museum collections, etc.).

Authors can also be included in the list of the Best contemporary artists according to expert recommendations, which allows the art community to discover new talents.

The Art Index makes every effort to ensure the objectivity of the generated list, however, in any case, the list reflects only the subjective position of the compilers.

The maximum number of names in the List is 500 authors (Top 500). The list is open and up-to-date. The Art Index is considering proposals for the inclusion of authors in the list of The Best Russian Contemporary Artists.

The Art Index is primarily aimed at collectors and all connoisseurs of modern fine art.

About

Art duet EliKuka included in the list of the Best Russian contemporary artists (ARTEEX). EliKuk's art duet is a union of two avant-garde artists, Oleg Eliseev and Yevgeny Kukoverov. EliKuk works with such media as painting, graphics, installation, video, performance. Their work is a mix of street underground and contemporary art in its minimalist and shocking forms: "the process of communication with people, and with those who are far from modern art, is more important to Us. We want as many viewers as possible to be able to somehow associate our art with themselves, with their lives, so we try to speak in a language that will be understandable to any person... Our friend the artist said that in order for the picture to hang smoothly, it is not necessary to touch the picture itself, you can simply turn the house painted on it. In this perspective, we are working – if the picture hangs crooked, it is necessary to turn the house."
