Everything Shagin Vladimir Nikolaevich (1932-1999) were people with imagination, so the beginning of life lost in various fabrications. Not identified, even when and where he was born. They say the ship may, in 1932, perhaps in 1929. With his father, Paul Pekshinym, the mother broke up before the war, who he was and where had happened, also known in various forms. Vladimir was adopted by his stepfather, Nicholas Shagin. Documented: in 1945 - 1951 he studied at SKHSH, which does not stand out. Only remember that playing the guitar, as he said Konstantin Simun, "almost in the classroom." He was expelled from the latter class seems to be because somewhere drove off without permission, it seems to Riga.
In 1953 he enrolled in his third year at LHU. Serov, commonly referred to as Tauride. Mr. Pisarev says: "Crazy blue eyes, blue suit and orange shoes. He was in the company mods: they sat in the gallery and solved their problems. " Studied for a short time, married, according to Rapoport, the "most beautiful girl in the Tauride" and began making money as a professional musician, which imperceptibly learned.
In 1961 he joined Alexander lived in a cemetery Aref'eva: he thus celebrated funeral of the deceased friend, Roald Mandelstam. Lacking a strong endurance friend, lost his mind: a woman snatched her purse - he imagined that she carries in her denunciation of the entire company. He was arrested. And sent to a mental hospital for criminals, of which usually do not come out. He was released after seven years: he was so handsome, and probably so touching that he begged a nurse in the administration. Joint life has not turned out, he returned to his mother, who considered it useful to his mind a heavy laborer work. So he worked until 1979 until he retired on disability. To death from time to time got to the hospital.
But neither the disease nor what was treated for his art is not affected. He did not let his demons in the painting. Paphos Aref'eva, exploring evil, it was not clear.
Aref analyzes and denounces, Shahin - sings. His martyred life, perhaps, explains the pathetic glorification of unpretentious pleasures of ordinary life. Bravura, the fixation on a simple, extreme democracy - all this must have been like to make it an exemplary Soviet artist, but it was not allowed Soviet art: they were perceived and allowed only a false sense. Although a friend of the sculptor Gel Pisarev, tried to attach it to the official status - turned only to their joint exhibition at the Blue room LOSHa in 1981.
Shagin was formed as an artist after the other arefevtsev Truly shaginskoe there since the early 60's. His legacy - it is mostly landscapes, usually with figures, and domestic scenes, with the participation of women. A woman with a very ordinary, quite literally faceless, for Shagin always happy - that Richard Vasmi saw philistinism.
Beauty shaginskih women - the beauty of outline. Strong woman's body - one of the pillars of the composition. Constructivist fashion 60's makes it easy to enter her body to the geometry devoid of frills interior. It's a dress for the first time to the delight of the men opened the high leg.
She and the Virgin Mary, and Scheherazade. The motif of the "Thousand and One Nights" - two girls in front men, apparently from this doubling and doubling the joy of a man - one of the constants.
The schedule is the motif of two men and a woman, but he turned to painting. The schedule can be found: crowded lunches, parties, cafes, a scene in a hospital room, the police, on the stairs, men's conversations and disassembly. But only the most deeply felt, achieved complete clarity, are honored to be translated into watercolor and oil. This mother and child, man and woman, bathers, beach, woman in the mirror and takes off her dress under the gaze of men.
As Aref, Shahin was indifferent to the portrait. As Aref, not the individual portrayed, and what happens between people. But he succeeded only to the relationship, full of affection and trust.
As Aref, he is indifferent to the world of objects. Item - a bottle or a bowl of fruit on the table - only marks the situation. Still, as a genre is usually the exception and not the dead - the flowers in pots.
But the city of Shahin wrote tirelessly. Shaginsky Leningrad - the opposite and "brilliant St. Petersburg," and "St. Petersburg myth" that is, the city of escheat, dream-like, alien living in it man. Do not like it and the modern metropolis. Rather, it can be mistaken for a peaceful province. In it there are passers-by, but no crowds, no traffic. No palaces, architectural ensembles, decor, large areas. That it is impossible to grasp the soul, which is not linked by many threads to the very existence, does not represent Shagin. In the Poetics Shagin than usual thing, the sweeter. He would be absolutely no reason to go for his impressions of Tahiti. He went to the Novocherkassk Avenue, made a wide gesture of his hand and said: "Finished the picture." New development is not terrible, because people live here. And inside it is not something that destroyed the natural wild: some kind of a river, a wasteland, shrub, herb, grown in the backyard. It seems that there are no backyard, which he could not turn into the picture.
From the fact it takes a bare skeleton of objects - as a woman of her outline. Suffice few of the same reality - rectangles of houses, fences, poles, wires, line the sidewalk, the trees with a highly potent bare trunk. He paints not things - it marks its presence at the same time constructs the space of them.
Shaginskaya manner based on a balance of stability and rapid movement. Peace, adopted as a given, steady and immutable. It is stable because of sharply defined outlines of objects, boxes of homes - that old, somewhere on Vasilevsky Island, that the new Cuban on the street - and a box of small buildings: garages, walk-through, sheds, banek. A powerful line, outlining the subject quickly. In it, and moving the entire mass of the picturesque, there is rejoicing, feeling the pressure. At the same time made us all with all.
Art does not reproduce Shagin picturesqueness of things and does not need it. In Shagin picturesque - picture, sound joint a few, usually brutal colors. Developed from a broad color strokes shaginskaya line, relaxed, and gambling, gives his version of the synthesis of constructivist and painterly, drawing and painting.
We could not be Shagin rearing texture, like Schwartz or Gromov - it requires many days of work on the painting. A Shahin - the type of artist who writes in a special, ecstatic state, which does not last long, and paid enormous nervous expenditure. Forces on the living arrangement, the life does not remain. In the 80 years he was known more than any other arefetsev, he participated in exhibitions in the Palace of Culture. II Strip and DC "Nevsky", his work is regularly exhibited in TEII. And his solitude occasionally broken fans, the same Mitka. However, take care of it, to accompany him to the thorny path no one had the strength.
