Moscow gallery “London Contemporary Art-EEB, Inc.” which began its activities within the Russian art-scene in 1999, was setting itself the task of popularizing high-class seriographs from the leading publishers of the same name in London. At the same time the creative endeavour of the publisher was the continued collaboration, which had started back at the beginning of the 1990s, with the artists Dmitry Plavinsky, Yuri Kuper, Rustam Khamdamov, Mihail Chemiakin, and also with the Croatian painter, M. Berber. Last five years, collaboration with Russian artists including Larissa Naumova and Lev Meshberg, is our only point. At the same time appearance within this period digital printing (iris, giclee) has led to the virtual disappearance of original artist's prints (etchings, lithographs, serigraphs), which has had an extremely negative impact on the international art market. This we are obliged to recognize with regret, since we have always remained an admire of original graphic works. Restructure of activity of company led to the new aims and that is why we closed «London Contemporary Art-EEB,Inc».
Since autumn 2009, Igor Metelitsin continues activity under the brand "Igor Metelitsin Gallery" in Russia and "IGM Gallery, llc." in the USA.
