The text is conceived as a critical commentary to the monography and catalogue of the work of the painter and graphic artist, Helena Salichova (1895-1975). It is an attempt at revision of the approach to the work, based not on the projection of career and objective facts about the artistic creation, but on grounds of application of general theoretical principals applied in the work that is based on the complex visual strategy (within its frame it concerns the aspects of style and stylistic mode, artistry, self-representation and expectation of the audience, paradigm value and artistic tradition versus innovation, nonclassical monumentality, creative undogmatical attitude towards folk culture etc.)
