THE ARTIST BORIS MIKHAILOVICH KUSTODIEV
AS the FAMOUS PAINTER BORIS KUSTODIEV WROTE the MAGNIFICENT WINTER LANDSCAPE" НА СЛУХ".
I"m Sure many will say that for the Russian people there is nothing more beautiful and dearer to the Russian winter. So fans of Russian painting, we offer you to admire the winter scenery of the famous masters of art Nouveau and impressionism Boris Kustodiev. Look who-кто, and Boris knew a lot about the Russian winter, every time he left among his beautiful white distances a piece of his soul.
"Многие was not to know that this cheerful, pleasing Kustodiev was physically helpless Martyr-инвалид?", — as-то wrote Fyodor Chaliapin about his friend the artist Kustodiev. And for many still remains a mystery, as a painter, confined to a wheelchair, suffering intense pain and suffering, sometimes living hand to mouth, was able to create stunningly joyful, original and extremely bright works.
it is Paradoxical, but typical of Kustodiev love for life and Outlook on life – has not changed with the disease. He did not become embittered, not closed in itself... moreover, his painting, in spite of everything, became even brighter and more beautiful. Living with a sense of all-destroying pain, it continued to exist in their world, and to paint it a bright, joyful and festive. His palette was literally mixed with the colors of joy, bright light and love to life.
Perhaps that is the love of life, to Russia, to a single woman who became the artist"s support, gave him strength. Read more about the great power of love you can read in the review: the Beloved woman by Boris Kustodiev, in whose name he fought a hell of a pain and created their best works.
Completely-особенному begin to look at the paintings of the artist when you pay attention to Dating most of his best paintings. And, just think, the revolutionary years, the civil war, the hunger strike (in St. Petersburg it raged especially), the establishment of Soviet power, when the country is literally reeling from destroying and creating change. It was at this time in my cold apartment in Leningrad, the artist created stunning masterpieces which have entered the Golden Fund of world art.
Endless Russian winter by Boris Kustodiev @ - a bright, dynamic, life-affirming
Nature and folk traditions of Russia was the ideological inspirer of the artist. Kustodiyev was enthralled by the harsh winters and the festive rituals of the common people. In his numerous canvases, dedicated to this most magical time of the year, as well as carnival and other popular festivals, Kustodiev certainly stressed dizzying whirlwind of emotions, in which were involved all the characters. He allegedly snatched moments from bustling life and neatly put them on his canvases.
Kustodiev wrote pure landscapes, his landscapes were always the story, with a huge number of different characters. It is also worth noting that the most striking element, creating the impression of dynamic movement, it is almost always used uncontrollably racing three @ - a symbol of Russian identity.
the Paintings are very decorative in its colour and compositional structure that resemble strange painted boxes, or splint. Amazing is the fact that most of the works written from memory or imagination. Although he was in the life of Boris Mikhailovich and the beautiful work that he created" на слух".
" Лыжники" (1919)
In 1919, Kustodiev created the canvas" Лыжники" which portrayed what is actually seen. The artist was not able to see this wonderful panorama, which appears to our eyes, as by that time it hardly moved in a wheelchair, and the street is extremely rare.
the Main inspirer and the eyes of the artist became his daughter Irina. As-то returning from a ski trip from the countryside, where she went with her friends, she, happy, flushed, with such inspiration and eloquence he told his father about what the indescribable beauty she had seen. How they rode from the mountains how wonderful it was frosty sky, what magnificent open spaces, as the smoke and steam raced across the vast snow gave the locomotive...
Kustodiyev, literally infected by the story of his daughter, immediately took up his brush and wrote an amazing picture. And I wrote only heard from joy and unforgettable experience of the storyteller. As it turned out, this talented artist was enough. The work was very realistic and impressive, quite unlike the other winter of the wizard, where merry festivities, the festive mood was in full swing where the vibrant life of the people among the city streets, swept snow drifts.
" Морозный day". (1913)
Provincial town covered with snow. On the street rushing sleigh, which sit young ladies, a horse runs excessively overweight cab driver, a janitor monotone waves his broom. Neat little houses look like toy, and the sun"s rays paint the snow and smoke a pinkish hue. The author of the bright colorful palette turned the everyday scene into a celebration. Under his brush, the current winter day acquired the vigor and brilliance.
" Масленица"
the Theme of the carnival, the artist reflects in his works many times, though in different years, interpreting it a bit-разному, but leaving one and the same essence. Carnival @feast-a wide, colorful, loose and tasty.
the painting depicts a bright, frosty day. Landscape background of festivities so colorful and beautiful that it seems Bud-то the holiday atmosphere in the air. Snow drifts lit by a low February sun, literally sparkle with its whiteness, and the trees covered with a thick layer of frost, reminiscent of fireworks. True genuine beauty of the Russian winter that will not leave anyone indifferent.
Although at first glance, it may seem that nature is not so real. Too bright and unnatural colors, like a winter landscape. But in these pictures the whole Kustodiev. That"s exactly what he saw winter Russian nature of the villages and towns. This wonderful world he was locked in time and space.
the people who dumped on the streets, joyful and cheerful. Here you can see people of all classes.
" Балаганы" (1917)
farce - an indispensable attribute of Russian folk festivities on Shrovetide. As the clearest example of folk art, it is for the artist @ - the main source of inspiration. "Скачут fair devils and parsley, beat drums buffoons. Noisy, fun, interesting. Colorful sleigh cabs delivered a power the audience to the beginning of the festivities. The posters promise athletes and many other amusements. Near shopping arcade with hot sbiten, pancakes, caviar and cold vodka. The whole day will revolve the carousel for the amusement of walking толпе." And around the winter, the trees shrouded in the dazzling frost. Frost. Spring is not soon...
Year of creation of this work - 1917-й. It was not in the realities of Russia Shrovetide festivities, it was not fun booths. All sunk into oblivion. And the picture - memories of another lost life. Even in the most joyful paintings Kustodiev, there is a nostalgia for a bygone Russia. He wrote that Russia, which had disappeared, and the new he never managed to learn since the whole world for the artist was made with the view from his apartment.
