He was a witness of the famous "fence" exhibition at the Palais Royal "Hruschik Sichik", which shocked his level of work and the courage of their authors. They got to know ... Only three hours underground, and how much noise! What effect, a public protest against the dullness and the generally accepted standard that was the first impression ...
... After graduation he came to Donetsk in distribution and thence to the army, he sang in a military song and dance ensemble KOdVO. After the demobilization remained in Odessa, carried away vanguard. He went into the group of Odessa nonconformists.
Member of the Artists Union was only in 1993. Following its first science teacher V. Geghamyan, a man with a philosophical, analytical mind, in bringing up their demands to the pupils themselves and their work, creative approach to everything, whatever they are doing, Rakhmanin each bring their work to perfection, not manufactured in light, until there is change, improve.

What happened formation Eugenia Rakhmanina?
How I started my journey as an artist? First of all, with the solution: all the things I was taught to forget and start from scratch, says Eugene. Certainly, the heritage study is necessary, but need only trust your senses, perceptions, one must be a natural for self-expression through art. And then your creativity will find understanding among people. Creativity is the artist's life and its integral part.
I gradually began to open his own world, to attach importance to color, light, color, says Eugene. I remember in this period I was under the influence Khrushch wrote a few still lifes (squash, flowers, dried gourds) in the avant-garde fashion. Some of them have had great success, "left" in private collections in Germany ... By the way, later I was invited to the KGB to the investigator, who, upon presentation catalog in German from my published works, Khrushchev and other artists in Odessa, demanded an answer, how could this happen ... They called on the samizdat and V. Serov, and in the late 80's I saw in the Union of artists of the notorious "black list": recommendations of the KGB of the artists who do not make progress.
Being consistent nonconformist, Eugene Rakhmanin, along with the artist Victor Risovichem in memory of the "fence" exhibition "Hruschik Sichik" roeno 10 years exhibited in the Palais Royal as their canvases. The exhibition lasted exactly 45 minutes. And again the strong point, the KGB, the elucidation of the personalities ...
Time is running out. What was, is history. Today, Eugene is a special warmth to the inspirer of the movement of Odessa, as well as those representatives of the intelligentsia (doctors, journalists, musicians, writers) who visited their apartment exhibitions, understand, maintain, and too often suffered ...
Eugene Rakhmanin said that when the turn of the 90 official organ of the confrontation ended when it became possible to all, to do it became even less interesting ...
Eugene finds his friend's roller Khrushch brilliant artist, whose work before, happened, and he froze in a daze from the deepest meaning of his minimalist ...
Roller died. But he is always with us gifted, talented, unpredictable. Odessa, it is not long enough. But Odessa will remember him always, I am sure Zhenya Rakhmanin.
