Artists hope that the exhibition will strengthen the union of the two professional shops: artists and researchers of history. They bring a new meaning to the cultural consciousness: not the duel, but the unity of the Image and the Fact, not isolation, but the cooperation of art and science in one historical field – "because we are in the same field as warriors".
