The works, which can be seen in the Gallery at Solianke were collected by one of the leading local curators Zelfira Tregulova. It's 55 paintings and graphic works of 1930-1950, which were established in Central Asia, and talk about it .. One room is the schedule, in two others - painting: bright, tends toward the avant-garde and national arts, and more intimate, going back to the traditions of Russian school of art, impressionism and thin design.
But this exhibition is not an anthology of art of Central Asia, it is rather a study of gaps situation monolithic totalitarianism. One of these zones, where the art could develop, was Central Asia. This poor region hid in his hot hands alternative art search, and the slow time of the East darilo artists comfortable feeling of eternity.
What tells us carefully constructed Zelfira Tregulova exposure? The fact that the miracle of art has always done in space, immanent art, and solving their own problems, the art is experiencing its creators, and engaging in aesthetic maintenance regime ceases to exist. The fact that the artist usually prefers to paint, rather than fight with the regime, and that the artist want power, not vice versa. However, there is no doubt that without the freedom of art is not living, that the dictatorship is ruining the art and in the dictates of the ideology of work as any dictated text, is transformed into a document, sometimes not without certain advantages of plastic.
Before we show artists of the Stalin era (the main array of work falls on the 1930's and 1940's). Exception - the most recent work slowly varying Paul Saltzman - a decade knocked out of the boundaries of 1953, the year of death of the tyrant. And to show the ability of the student Filonova honor teachers in any mode and at any age. This exception only emphasizes expositional vnepolozhennost artist outside world. The longer we look into the exposure, the greater the erosion are stereotypical of the era and Soviet art. We see the highest pictorial culture of artists, which indiscriminately called "Soviet" or "masters of social realism. The exhibition demonstrates the heterogeneity of the Soviet empire - part of partisanship in the art of Central Asia looks like a form of artistic exile.
In the market situation is identical to the relevance of market success. But in an ideological society, the relevance of art is built in other coordinates - as the relevance of internal communication of a closed community. Central Asia was because of its remoteness and the ethnographic specifics of the place the secret life of art - out of power, ideology, the dominant style, landing totalitarian CX RSFSR. Artists have found a zone of freedom in a tough situation, broke a lot of talent. Their art, shown Zelfira Tregulova can be considered a return of authenticity.
