"Soviet Art: Embedding of the day day after tomorrow" (Part of the article)
avt.Kira Obolenskaya
If you look at Soviet art without bias, we can say only one thing: having to deal with Soviet art, we are dealing with a large, localized in time, the phenomenon of world culture. Socialist Realist Painting no less peculiar than creativity, for example, small Dutch. At the highest artistic quality, which was determined by the world's best academic school, Soviet art carried a quintessence of social and philosophical ideas, which at that time considered to be advanced not only in the Soviet Union, but throughout the world. Each time period was reflected in Soviet painting highlighted: optimism and joie de vivre õ50-30-x, stern style of 60's, poetry and care in the inner world of 70-hnachala 80.

It is surprising not only a high level of skill, but the number of artists - Soviet painting has thousands of names. To understand the reasons for the mass, you need to know of how the Soviet school of arts.

Soviet art school, created the best masters of pre-revolutionary time - Grabar, Juon, Brodsky, Pavel Korin, Rylov. These artists - the direct successors of the Russian academic school. Other famous artists of the Soviet era, such as Deineka, Osmyorkin, Pimenov, Samokhvalov, Nyssa began his artistic career as members of the avant-garde groups that have appeared in numerous in the early years of the revolution. Former avant-garde infuse new blood into the old grammar school, so was born Soviet art.

With the advent of Artists' Union appeared and the system of art education: after all, in order to become a member of the SC, have the right to shop and orders Hudkombinate, it was necessary to prove their professional viability, and this in turn - for a long time to learn.

PAX SOVETICA

In general, the Soviet state was able to do what Russia failed empire. Was established pax sovetica in culture. In art colleges of the country learned not only representatives of the USSR, but also students from the socialist camp. And today's art of these countries bear the clear imprint of the Soviet school. For example, auctions of the same Sotheby's, held in Hong Kong and New York modern art in China, along with reminiscences about American poparta like Warhol and Rauschenberg presented and it is "socialist realist" works of Chinese painters. Any more or less interested in the art will understand that these masters of the hand was placed in the USSR. Thus, at Sotheby's Contemporary Art Asia in March 2007 in New York on the work of Chinese artist Chen Ifeya "Father and Son" was sold for $ 540 000. A cursory glance at the work and its dimensions (198.0 x 198.0), to understand: it is inspired by the work of Soviet artists Helium Korzheva. His paintings were also executed in giperrealisticheskoy manner, even smear like simulating wrinkles. And this is not the only example.

But perhaps the main achievement of the Soviet school of painting - that has managed to retain an academic education system, which is not in any country in the world. The World academic painting had disappeared completely, the names of the artists of the twentieth century figurativistov naperechet, so you can only think of Dali or Maningsa (English painter, masterfully depicting racing and foxhunting), whose works are fabulous money.

Soviet art - a multifaceted phenomenon, and has not appreciated at its true worth. The market has not developed and is waiting for its customers. Now sold or first names, or those artists, which invested galerei.V An example is Nicholas Timkovo, whose works were taken in the U.S. in the late 1980's. now actively untwist. Thus, his "View of Torzhok" was sold at Sotheby's in New York for $ 25 000 in Estimé $ 20 000-25 000.

  Another important point - in this market virtually no fakes. Many artists are doing so far, others have left the family, which has always been able to confirm the authenticity of works. Buying the work of a Soviet artist, you can be sure that you buy the original.

  We are not able to appreciate all that colossal legacy that was left after 70 years of existence of that powerful country. And these 70 years can not be deleted either from the history of Russia, nor in the history of world culture.
