It's a little disingenuous to label the non-Canadian component as
"Russian", given where the artists were born, then studied, then displayed
their works.

Hell, the same can be said for those artists labelled "Canadian".

For as great as some of these painters are (Malevich in particular and I'm
sure with time others could be cited), there's either a lazy or dishonest
mind collapsing these works under the two headings of "Canadian" and
"Russian".
