What happens to the artistic legacy of the famous artist Samara Valentine Purygin in which it was able to now? To these questions may not get a response from the "competent persons" Samarians province, which is far indifferent to the fate of numerous paintings of the Master.
Our illustrious countryman Valentin Z. Purygin from 1939 to 1944 he studied at the Moscow Art School, where he studied with G. Korzheva, Tkachev brothers, P. Ossowski, V. Stozharovym. In 1950 he graduated from the Moscow Art Institute im.V.I.Surikova, where he worked in the studio of a famous Soviet artist G. Ryazhskaya. In 1954 he became a member of the Artists Union. Purygin worked in the genre of landscape, explored the characteristic motifs of the Volga, Volga, Lada (picture of "poplar", "Walk", "Moonrise over night Samara" and many others). His work has been a noticeable phenomenon in art exhibitions in Samara, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kazan, Volgograd, Nizhny Novgorod, Ulyanovsk, Bulgaria. In 1970 VZ Purygin lived and worked in Zagorsk and Moscow, where he earned all-union recognition.

In 1979 he returned to Kuibyshev (Samara). The artist brings to his canvases series of pagan pantheon of characters, personifying natural forces - a god Yarila, Sprites, mermaids. To the fore in the artist's thoughts go out on the global fate of the world that has full evil. His work has been devoted to the theme of revolt "natural" nature vs. civilization. In Samara, Moscow, Kazan held solo exhibitions of master, and in 1982 Purygin was awarded the title of Honored Artist of Russia. Spring-krasnaOsokor
Valentin Z. Purygin died on October 29, 2002. And almost immediately after his death, the widow of artist Galina offered to donate the regional art museum of the heritage of the promise of the authorities to establish a museum Purygin. At the same time and it was decided to establish a museum in a building on the street. Ventseka 55. As a result, in 2004, GD Purygin gave the State 248 paintings from the artist Samara. At that time, the cost of this collection, experts estimated about 10 million rubles. In addition to paintings to the museum were transferred to personal letters and recording artist, his things, literature. In 2006, the artist's sister, Emilia Zakharovna donated to the museum collages, graphic works, sketches, personal belongings of his brother (including sketchbook Valentine Zakharovich). There were donated to the museum around 2 thousand works hudozhnika.Takim way, in an art museum was concentrated in a huge number of exhibits of the future museum Purygin (more than 10 thousand units).
But several years have passed, and the museum as yet. Moreover, in the past three years has begun reconstruction of senseless cultural center in Kuibyshev Square, which housed the Opera House and a branch of an art museum with the legacy of VZ Purygin. Paintings in this case were exposed to vibration and dust. The roof over the collection was removed, and the collection moved from the sixth floor to the second. Relatives do not provide the possibility of inspection legacy of the artist. Terms of the reconstruction is constantly postponed. Now the completion date, as stated by the governor Artyakov, scheduled for 2010. And while Samara is no opera house and fine arts exhibition hall.
In addition to such an extensive and highly valuable legacy of the artist has not yet compiled a catalog (even say that the former museum director was fired for trying to make it). Items are not insured and are not appreciated, although in storage in extreme conditions, in the reconstructed building. Alley
Meanwhile, in Samara antique shops vengeance sold paintings Purygin. And these pictures are very expensive, this means that they demand from collectors. And even his relatives did not know whether this is not the paintings that were donated to the museum. After all, which can be determined only by catalog. But he is still not prepared ...
This raises fears that part of the heritage of the Master simply disappear, to dissolve in private collections in Russia and abroad. This means that for Samarans it will irrevocably lost. Deceased Anneta Bass (long-term director of the Samara Art Museum, an honorary citizen of Samara) said in 2005, the following words: "Valentin Z. - a lump in the history of Russian art. But his real recognition yet to come. "Alas, may well be the case that many artifacts simply do not live to see this recognition.
Sadly, that is actually unnecessary to the district authorities was the legacy of our talented countryman, patriot Samara Valentine Zakharovich Purygin. One can understand that now the crisis, and funds for culture is not, there are more important expenses. But this whole story began long before the crisis, and therefore may indicate the indifference of officials to art in general, and the Russian artist Valentin Purygin in particular ....

Obeschenogo Purygin museum, I think, do not be under the current system of appointment of officials. They are controlled by no one, the public is not possible for them not to influence, or so used. control them.
While the current regime in power - no changes will be.
Governor Artyakov (brother-in-law Putin) to Samara hell before that he was indifferent to the WHA. Nobody izberal with him and not ask, he did in the other world lives, it can be seen only on television.

Given during the life of Annette Yakovlevna Bass and if it in 2006, is not dead, now would have been, I think, a single large exposure Purygin would have existed.

There is currently no permanent exhibition, where they could get acquainted with the collection of museum-shop VZ Purygin, but soon it will be possible. Now there is a reconstruction of the building Shihobalovyh mansion on the street. Ventseka 55, which is planned to place the collection so that it becomes permanently available to viewers and connoisseurs of the great master.
