A. Baturin (b. 1914) - the oldest of the now surviving disciples and followers V. Sterligova. The artist in his own heroic destiny, who spent years in Stalin's camps, he is the least likely (as happens sometimes with many worthy people) do from their past suffering of the foot for the current success. Amazing vitality and faithfulness to artistic principles helped him to withstand the ordeal, he and the Gulag was able to notice the beauty of nature.

Baturin met Sterligov during the life of his teacher - Kazimir Malevich - in 1931, he began his study, but another meeting after all the mishaps took place only after nearly a quarter of a century. To so deeply as Baturin, to accept principles of teachers and keep their loyalty, was only one way: to make them completely their own, merge them with its own personality.

School Malevich Sterligova-armed, but not enslaved eye Baturin. He opened indistinguishable for the average viewer harmonic logic of peace. He has talent so slow in his paintings time that sometimes it perceives to stop altogether. The artist sees in the nature of complex simplicity and complexity that fancies simple. Expanse of calm water reflected the sky may be the finest way nuanced and complicated amount of tree crown is reduced to a simple plastic formula. The artist offers viewers the true potential of the human eye and thought, especially the intellectual and aesthetic lenses, available only "a few lucky ones" ( "the happy few"), on a favorite expression of Stendhal. Pictures Baturin constructed gently and powerfully defining the space of color planes, sometimes crossing each other smoothly. In his universe - more than three dimensions, but it does not argue with the canvas, but on the contrary, at peace with him space. Flattened volumes, the flimsy translucent plane, quiet colors - warm-ash, darkened gold umbristo-rusty-specific elongated strokes, as if "fused" color in the canvas - all this gives the impression of an unprecedented combination of logical calculation, and the mysterious wisdom divination.
