Paintings of the Soviet period is full of brilliant names. Unfortunately, time is sometimes ruthlessly to the memory of the art formerly known authors. Example is the name of the prematurely departed in 1997 a full member of Arts, Honored Art Worker of the RSFSR Filatcheva Oleg Pavlovich (1937-1997). In 2007, academic halls Prechistenke an exhibition of his memory have included a pictorial and graphic works submitted by the artist's family. OP Filatchev better known as a muralist. He worked not only in the USSR but also abroad. Its walls were decorated with paintings of the USSR Embassy in Washington. Some radical citizens linked intravital success with "giperkonformizmom" mirovoreniya artist in relation to power. Leave on their conscience this statement. OP Filatchev entered the history of art as an artist reinterpreting dull aesthetics severe style, enriching it with new image-plastic language. Filatcheva favorite artists were painters of the early Renaissance. It was in this cultural-historical paradigm was the life-giving source of inspiration and creativity of the author of the landmark. Undoubted interest are the series of portraits of his contemporaries, executed in tempera on levkasnomu ground, as well as a magnificent series of graphic works dedicated to the fishermen to the north and military pilots.
Most of the heritage of the artist is included in the collections of major public museums. The market is practically no work of this author. In this regard, there is no information about the artistic heritage. But sorry. Yourself OP Filatcheva not so clearly understood in the context of the cultural perspective of artistic life in the USSR 70-ies. He himself, not only as a painter, but also as a person, were a type of universal and harmonious human era of great style.

As a child I was often sick. Once in our house appeared blue lamp, and it was ordered to adopt procedures to cure a cold. The lamp was very beautiful, beckoning mysteriously glowing light. It just drew me. I could not help myself. But as a child conditionally obedient, first asked the authorities: what happens if you lick? They told me: try and find out ... Everyone thought I was joking ... Interestingly, the cold somehow by itself once and ended. But the burns healed in three weeks.
Since then, it took many years. This is all now history. My personal story. I think that, at least one lesson I made from it. Namely: I never licked the blue lights. And I'm not.
The ancient Romans were not the bloodthirsty other nations. Bread and circuses, and demanded to them. The Romans only brought pleasure and spectacle to its climax, artistically expressing them and rejecting bigotry, which they previously hypocritical cover. The fruits of lust, brought to the absolute - power over the world, a basin with feather between the change in hours of food feasts and the blood soaked sand amphitheater.
The Romans, like all people, looking for happiness. And found a warm bath, phlebotomy and weary disappointed "What is truth?".
Time passed. The theater changed, the circus, the gladiators put on boxing gloves. Christian civilization has not banned the spectacles, and taught people the proper respect to them. World's cultural heritage is unthinkable without theater, without Shakespeare, Chekhov, Goethe ... At the circus did not shed blood, and circus audience much younger. Obedient to the will man the beasts are no longer plagued by the people, but instead a cry of horror and rage jingle bells children's laughter. With a marvelously paradoxical to put into practice words of Tertullian that "things that people use for evil, evil only evil to their usage."
The Roman Emperor Vitellius gave orders to execute people in his presence. He explained this simply: "I want to fill the eye." Only a short time the Board did not allow him to make a second Caligula or Nero. Let us leave until accusations of brutality and perversion of the above individuals and try to look from a different angle.
Status of human rights without God - gluttony. The whole pagan world was exposed to the disease and yelled "bread and circuses" the louder, the more they received. This is easy to believe now. Simply turn on the TV. Replaced by another "nasyschalke" eye immediately come Dummy - continuing with the same name and adding at the end of digits 2, 3, 4 ... But the figures, like murder, do not fill the void. Saint Cyprian already in the III century, wrote about such ephemera: "... at least in all this was not a direct offense, but still there is the greatest and no decent true emptiness." That emptiness, which returned to the "seven evil" (Mt. 12, 43-45).
The uniqueness of the Bible in that it was not only the published, but also the most readable book. For two millennia, the European culture linked with the Bible. Or back to her, or her struggles. Vulgar grimaces and penny passions of Venus and Apollo gave way to shrill and sincere Hamlet "to be or not to be?". The audience chose: to be ...
But human history has known a curious phenomenon - the Renaissance. A beautiful word with a flourish beautifully and translates - revival. In essence, nothing new is being born. Renaissance was not, was to return. Return vitellievogo desire to "saturate the eye." Return of paganism.
Who does not remember his past - doomed to repeat it. For some reason we always forget that beautiful Renaissance ends ugly. Guillotine in the square, for example. Or rampant drunken sailor on the night armed northern city. A recent renaissance is over the fact that the sky will be curtailed as a roll ...
Come on, when it will be! And would it ever? So eat, drink, be merry. Take everything from life. Everything in this life to try. That "only" offered so much intrusive and loud, even uncomfortable to ask the question: should I? After all - no need to point. Happy is he who lacks. Only when the departure from these inexhaustible source, then there is a desire to take everything from life and try everything. Or rather - to try and take up to infinity ...
History again repeated itself. The show was called lush and short words - the show. Later someone said that the show must go on. After all, look not saturate, it can only be infinitely saturate. Good clever play, book or movie give more. They can specify the path where you can fill the deepest abyss in the world - the human soul.
But the show - it is different. He spit on the soul. Its mission - to create only an illusion of saturation, at the same time created a need for the next dose. It does not allow you to stop and think. Think you can only over the fact that leaves a trail. And it is very hard to find sometimes even a hint of any trace after the next big show-washing.
And yet - even the most "harmless" show may well be for fun spit and defecate on the beloved and sacred to someone. The law had one: the main thing that sells well.
However, the law - this is not necessarily impossible. Perhaps the show someday repeat the fate of the theater. Clean all clean. It's great when thousands of boys are beginning to emulate the world champion in boxing and running in the gym. But nothing is more humiliating, ridiculous and false, than advertising beer and vodka during a sporting event.
Sometimes it is appropriate to recall that the gladiator fights were, in fact, a disguised form of human sacrifice. And take the ring otkushennye ears and blows below the belt for granted.
All of me, but not everything is beneficial (1 Cor. 6, 12), - says the Apostle Paul. The Romans brought the spectacle and fun to the highest point - and lost its raison d'être. Great empire rotted from within. The most powerful army the world has been conquered by barbarians, and the three tired, disillusioned with the words: "What is truth?"
Sic transit gloria mundi ...
They say that man is what he eats. In man, according to Christian thought - three parts: spirit, soul and body. So, people - it is also something to which he looks. And as we carefully choose the food, paying attention to the composition and shelf life, so must be carefully selected and then, on what we see. Because the eye - light body (Matthew 6 and 22). The retina - is the camera lens, the pictures which filled the hard disk of our memory. It is important to choose the subject. Because the required time comes, go out the media limelight, and every one of us ask: what do you most remember?
