Enzo Rosamilia's new exhibit is his second project dedicated to Russian literature, the first being "Chekhov Through the Mirrors", dedicated to Chekhov's 155th birthday anniversary. The new project is dedicated to the masterpiece novel by Soviet Russian writer Mikhail Bulgakov.

"I have always admired Russian literature. After the first project dedicated to Anton Chekhov, I thought of creating another project related to Russian literature...I've read books by Bulgakov and was particularly impressed by his "The Master and Margarita" - a surrealistic, mysterious and dramatic novel. I find this Bulgakov's masterpiece really unique - it stands out in the world of literature by its originality and brilliant imagination", - explains Enzo Rosamilia. The new show features 21 photographs that were first presented by the artist in Moscow in 2018.
