Vladimir Ovchinnikov is one of the best known representatives of the Leningrad underground art scene. While being a workman in the Hermitage museum, he and his associates, among whom also Michail Shemyakin, organized the infamous exhibition in the Rastrelli gallery of the museum (1964). Subsequently he took part in almost every significant event connected with activities of Leningrad nonconformists, including exhibitions at Gaz DK (1974) and DK “Nevsky" (1975).
