This paper is a part of a discussion on how the image of Russia and the Russians is constructed in contemporary Russian visual arts. In order to examine contemporary Russian identity from a sociocultural perspective, we use anthropological methods of analysis. The focus of our research is also on the Russian language in the context of culture and identity which is an area of sociolinguistics. The significant idea is to develop a strategy of implementing the data into the process of teaching Russian as a foreign language.
