In the view of Waldemar Kazak, an artist from Russia, the first task of all art is to make a strong impression on people. All those who have ever seen his illustrations find them to be shocking in one way or another. Kazak himself argues that his work is satirical, depicting ordinary life with a slightly comical bent. He admits that in some way his art is also a form of defence against a ’predatory outside world.’
