Tchaikovsky's nephew

Kotrelev Nick talks about underground artists of Soviet Yakovlev and Zverev, an exhibition which is now in the Gallery Nashchokina.

The idea of ​​the exhibition belongs to Sergei Alexandrov Albertovich. He is a wonderful collector - wisely! He not only knows how to find the product, it tastes great. But he also cares about the existence of artists in their posthumous existence. Sergey Alexandrov many dealing with the problem of authenticity, it's more like a museum or art history activities. He tries to make all things were very high class and is certainly true, since this period, like many others, was typical unabashed copying and counterfeiting.

In addition, Sergey Alexander became the producer of the documentary. One of the two directors - it's me, and, in my opinion, not bad. We worked on the film two months together with Vladimir Osherov. He was still caught on the opening day acquaintances Yakovlev and filmed interviews with them. In general, for this film was recorded many interviews with friends and contemporaries, Yakovlev - more than five hours in total. This documentary is valuable reservoir. The film was conceived as a testimony of friends and people who knew Yakovlev, this is not about the biography of the artist, and not about the merits of his paintings, this film memoir, the movie-memories. His show at the exhibition.
