Folk art, including Russian folk art, existed and developed throughout the 20th century and continues to exist in the 21st century. Russian traditional art is well-known in the world. When in any country of the world, a local resident is asked what the word "Russia" is associated with, then usually in response along with frosts, bears, vodka, Troika, samovar, balalaika and the Kalashnikov, it is also called such concepts as “Palekh,” “Gzhel” and “Khokhloma.” The reason for this is the peculiarity of the existence of folk art, based on the traditions of the ethnic group. The author concludes that Russian traditional applied art having survived all the troubles and misfortunes, continues to exist. At the same time, traditional art directly affects the “high” art of the nation.
