Widespread lobbying TN Contemporary Art ..

Further my argument in this one, great theme - the memories of the great masters who will not be undone.

I apologize to the author's themes, for some retreat :shy:>

Today's virtuosos of art, of course, exceed litsedeyskimi views and palette capabilities of the inhabitants of the patriarchal wooden houses near the "radimovki." Disproportionate to the actual professional performances of the new (first image) and idle "skits" of the past generation (archive photo), made fun of the masters of brush and chisel, then why are taught drawing and painting.

«Love for life for Alexander Ivanovich was ballet. Since 30-ies. He participated in the labor collective of artists. A very active part he took in the satirical pop gatherings of the team. His room began with a parody of the famous portrait of O. Lepeshinskaya of AM Gerasimov.
On the dark wall of a large gold frame was set, in which a tutu and tights speech on pointe (ballet costume Morozova, stitched with his hands survived), he became the pose depicted in the portrait. There is a light and within a minute he stood motionless. The parody was so successful that the audience always applauded vigorously. Finally, at the scene sounded melody from Tchaikovsky's ballet "Swan Lake" and, to the astonishment of the audience, danced professionally Morozov ... .. "

«Sasha selflessly loved animals, and this has become famous for Maslovka. He lived a crow Varka. During the day she was flying freely in our yard, but the night will certainly come back to the studio to Morozov. She responded to his call and immediately flew home. Sasha had lived in poverty, eating poorly, but Varka nothing withheld. He specifically went to the market for meat, fish and cranberries for their pet.
... Once, returning from the market, he saw that the fellow is going to cut off a huge chicken-head. He begged him to sell him the bird. Chernushka called it. The studio was a tub with a high exotic flower. Chernushka flew at him, and lay there like to roost, but sometimes climbed to Sasha on the bed and put her head on the pillow beside his head. Chernushka rushed, and Sasha gave eggs to children. She lived with him for eight years »

It's funny and original, even with talent - it has the right to life.
In the first case (Kulik ) - vile and vulgar, and nothing is impossible.
All expressed , of course, just my personal opinion, but it IS in love with modern art, can clog your feet :D>

As for the "Kapustnik."

If I'm not mistaken, the first "skit" was in 1952.
Organized and brought to the stage of their House of Artists cheerful and resourceful fellow artist Konstantin Dorokhov.
Initially, the satirical program called "Ochre shredded," then "Along Maslovka," then there were many different versions of "Speech and Punishment," "Keep right," etc.
Just recently caught the eye of the booklet "skit" for the 50th anniversary of the Moscow Union of Artists, so look for a long time did not have to ....

Where did?

Architectural head.
 

One of the most common sites of Moscow the third stage of the project activities VF Krinsky, of course, is a residential complex on the Upper Maslovka. In the creative destiny of the master he stands out more because the work on it continued because of objective constraints of the building to break a very long time (from 1931 to 1951).
He started designing with A. Ruhlyadevym, winning a small contest for a creative idea. Before the war, managed to carry out only part of the planned - two buildings that are intended for artists. Then in 1949 created the opportunity to further develop the project, which again had to defend in a competitive contest. In creative collaboration with LM Lysenko and engineer YS Rubinstein VF Krinsky completed the quarter overall planning and architectural design of the proposed second phase. Unfortunately, this idea has not been fully completed. But overall, the complex design decisions at various stages of architecture and lined residential buildings and artists' studios, quite clearly reveals the creative writing master.
Space reserved for a residential complex, a very profitable and interesting in regard to planning. It is located next to the stadium of Dynamo co-Petrovsko Razumovskaya alleys and streets of Upper Maslovka. Plot elongated, wedge-shaped form. Around him a lot of greenery and open spaces with good visibility points. The residential area with tall buildings planned as a major dominant in the surrounding area, designed to organize the different character of architectural and urban fabric of different scales.
In all variants of perimeter building was laid with its axis along the plans of the red lines in full agreement with the classical tradition. Inside housed a large yard. Krinsky been looking for different ways of partitioning and layout of the yard space at the expense of the figure of lawns, flowerbeds, supporting child care and household units. External and internal facades differed significantly. Naturally, the main street facades and considered an architectural decision was given to their grand and solemn character.
LM Lysenko - co-VF Krinsky second post-war phase of the project in a special article dedicated to this complex describes understood their creative challenge: "The Soviet Union was first proposed project is a 12-storey building, where artists' studios were merged with the apartments. The height difference between the shops (5 meters) and apartments (3 m) made it possible to place on the north side of 8 floors workshops, and the south 12 floors and two-bedroom apartments. One site served as a ladder to enter the shop, and another - in an apartment ... The idea behind the plan, define the external architecture of the house. Forced feature planning workshop was the imposition on the facade of large windows showcase. This circumstance greatly affected the decision of the facade. Therefore, before the authors had the task - to find harmony between the architecture of the main building "B" and the existing buildings, as well as the projected housing "G" and the environment. For such a connection has been proposed option to allow use of the classical heritage. "
And, indeed, the entire field of front wall arranged in accordance with the classical tectonic norms: a three-part division of the horizontal to the base, wall, and the wedding. Large openings showcases workshops are balanced by two massive lateral risolits. The entire facade is built on a clear symmetry with a vertical axis in the center. Supports this symmetry two major grand portal with rich plastic forms, and two arched passage into the yard.
These are powerful portals and high pedestal of dark granite "labrodor" create the impression of a calculated well-integrated foundation for robust high bulky wall of the building.
In turn, the entire field wall finely dissected by horizontal and vertical rods embossed accents, framing openings. Their location, proportions, and a plastic figure Krinsky attached great importance. He long sought the best solution. Suffice it to say that the experience of finding the metric system partitioning of the facade is set out in the text of his doctoral thesis on modular proportions in architecture.
Very interesting and unusual solution crowning cornice in the form of double consoles. Soft and subtle graphics of the fascia transferred to the console with a strong structure removal, which rests on the cornice board. All profiles and breakup drawn with great taste, very inventive. The whole system is, of course, has a renaissance of nature, but in none of the elements we find a well-known address, where he could be taken. The hand of a great artist and a professional feel here in full.
Finish this little analysis of the Upper House of Artists on Maslovka wants passage, taken from the same article L. Lysenko's feelings, which is experiencing any architect at the end of their planned and realized buildings.
"After receiving the house and signing the appropriate documents Vladimir Fedorovich invited me to climb with him on the roof of the house and enjoy the round. It was a beautiful sunny May morning, hours 10 am. I remember one phrase he told me: "After such hard work of every architect, I think, it's nice to admire about. Hence, everything seems so beautiful ... "And indeed, before us stretched a beautiful view - straight down I could see the stadium" Dynamo "and Leningrad avenue, west Petrovsko-Razumovsky park, with a bluish haze in the north has been viewed Savyolovsky station. While the new Artists' House was the tallest building here. " (From the book by DL Melodinskogo "Krinsky, VF")
