Exhibition of Russian Artists in Paris
 

From April 22 to May 2 in Paris, an exhibition "Born in USSR, made in France". This exhibition is organized in honor of the "Year of Russia in France /Year of France in Russia with the assistance of the Paris municipality, which allocated a large and beautiful showroom in the heart of one of the oldest neighborhoods of the city - Mare, on the street Vieille du Temple (in the XIII century, this street led to the temple of the Knights Templar Templars), where most of the modern art galleries.
The name of the hall also reminds us of this Order of - he called the "Espace des Blancs-Manteaux" - white coats).

This exhibition - entirely figment of the imagination (and overflowing) artist Vladimir Kara - which will be discussed later. He founded the association, which took up the matter, invited artists, found sponsors, contacted the press, art critics and art historians, including the very famous Jean-Claude Marcadet (by, inter alia, a book about Nicolas de Stael, several chapters of which I translated for the plot devoted to this artist I adore), who had promised to make the exposure and open the exhibition.

This exhibition will feature works of 25 artists and Russian descent, moved to France at the same time.

We, that is, AI, and my humble person, decided to introduce you to the exhibitors of the exhibition - some you know well, others, perhaps you are not yet known.

Thinking about the presentation of this exhibition in Paris, I decided that I will represent artists in alphabetical order. Therefore, we ought to start with ... Oleg Yakovlev, of course. However, in the cyber-walls of this illustrious forum has repeatedly and in sufficient detail to talk about this on my good friend, and repeated to anything.
But then I came to the aid of the Latin alphabet - show some French - so we start with Catherine Zubchenko (Catherine Zoubtchenko).

I met Kate in 1978, soon after his arrival in Paris, and all fell under her charm: Katja Zubchenko for me - the embodiment of Chekhov's "a man should be beautiful: the face, and clothing, and soul and mind." It is as beautiful as her pictures - a tall, stately, bright, with a regal bearing. She is smart, cheerful, carefree, flirtatious. Very talented, Lanskoy just saw this "tail of a comet called School of Paris" (thanks Ranzheru for a quote) into the cowshed her pupils - she remained a full-fledged his employee until his death, Maître - evidenced by the mosaic they created together for the University of Rennes (1973-76 years)..

Kathy works speak for themselves - many times I saw people who did not know her work, sent straight to her picture, even if hung around a lot of other - perhaps they attracted the same thing as love and me - their generosity and inner harmony.

Masha Schmidt
 

Since I am not familiar Masha Schmidt - yet. I hope very soon to this outrageous situation will change.
I like her work - or better to say "her work"? - When they are considered, there is confidence that it is all the fragments of one large canvas, which shows the entire plant life of Earth.


Masha's a big family. We assume that Vrubel - her great-uncle - he could write as if set out on an abstraction (but take a piece of his lilacs and increase it by 100 times - here's the abstract!), Nicolas de Stael with his technique the "big points ", say, uncle, and Helena Vieira da Silva, but thawed, warmer, descending from his marble pedestal - aunt. The family have settled in different continents - first cousins, second cousins and sisters and other water on the porridge is in America ... But we'll leave it a list of relatives - of Masha Schmidt noteworthy in itself, is a very good painting, which has always been rare.

Oleg Burov
 

C Oleg Burov we met in the early 70's.
It was like this: I found a tiny black kitten and I kept thinking, where would it to me to attach. In any case, decided to go to Nashchyokin house - keeper of his work while a friend of mine, an archaeologist Pichikyan Igor, who is running to live there a cloud of artists, though, and suspect that his humanity does not apply to representatives of the feline - and the yard had fallen on one exclaimed : "What a lovely kitty! Where you have this? ". This man was a sculptor Oleg Burov, guarding the last part of the historic mansion. The kitten was also prolific cat named Black, the progenitor of the whole dynasty Prechistenka-ostorzhenskih cats. And with Oleg we became friends.
I was immediately surprised and attracted his polychrome sculptures of female figures, like Aphrodite, born of a foam, women's faces, like the flower-maidens of Wagner Parsifal ...

Then Oleg moved to France, and our friendship continued. The whole garden of his three-story shop in familiar at least by the name of all the people who love painting, city Ober-sur-Oise, hung with birdhouses, bird feeders. These same birds arrive, lunch and dinner, as if suddenly turns out that the feeder is empty, insolent and exacting banging on the window. Every morning the resort neighborhood and simply abandoned dogs, cats, squirrels, rabbits and even some livestock - also with his claims. Oleg understands what they are. Oleg - a specialist in phonetics, morphology, syntax, the language of animals ...

The exhibition is allows a GMS-Gallery (Moscow).
