	Description:		English curator and art dealer James Birch is arguably best known for his innovative ways of championing British art - including exhibiting the works of figurative painter Francis Bacon in Moscow in the late 1980s, when Russia was part of the USSR. Birch's new book Bacon In Moscow tells the story of his audacious effort to bring Bacon's raw, unsettling works to more than 400,000 Soviet citizens.
