Statement:
A Honored Artist of Russia
Vita / Lebenslauf:
I was born in Bezhitsa of Bryansk region, Russia in 1937. In 1952-1957 I studied at the Yelets Fine Art College, the teacher Viktor S. Sorokin. In 1957 I entered the Kharkov Fine Art-Industrial Institute to study in a battle art-studio of Leonid Chernov and in 1963 graduated from it.
My first passion in Art was the Itinerants (a late 19th-century Russian school of realist painters). Then my idols became Mikhail Vrubel and Konstantin Korovin. All my life, old Russian Art and painting of Andrey Rublyov, Feofan Grek, Russian icon, as well the Art of Renaissance were the part of my soul and inspired me a lot. El Greco made a special influence on me. I copied his “Saints Peter and Paul” in Hermitage, St. Petersburg, Russia. Among favorites are Russian Soviet avant-garde, namely Bubnovy Valet, as well impressionism, fauvism (Sezanne, Matisse).
The principle of painting – color without whitewash or its minimum in use.
