Oleg and Evgeny had been mentored by Soviet "new wave" veterans Georgy Ostretsov and Georgy Litichevsky. They work with different media, from paintings to installations and performances. EliKuka presented a number of personal exhibitions in Moscow, London, and Paris; participated in such projects, as Russian Lettrism (Русский леттризм) at New Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow and Relative Connections (Относительные связи) in St Petersburg. Kukoverov started collaborating with Red Brigades Punk Formation since he mixed their debut album. He became de-facto the fifth member of the band, responsible for all studio recordings. Name variations: Evgeny Kukoverov, John Kukoverov
