Visiting Petit Bletkina

[раскатов]

Pyotr Bletkin (1903 - 1988), a prominent Georgian painter, a pupil Lancere and Charlemagne.
Excerpt: "Hearing the name of the artist, one of the best in Georgia, whose work I always wanted to see, especially performed in the thirties, I did not have to invite myself twice ... We came to the artist, who was waiting for us .... Living in a small apartment and having a very many works, all the walls had been hung with paintings. In addition to painting the walls were still in the racks. .... He showed and demonstrated, and the rest of his work is not there. I never could have imagined that an artist, even the elderly can retain possession of so much works. The works were different, as the date of execution and quality. I got, I remember the impression that Peter (as everyone called him, despite his age) does not sell, although at the time, but it was 1983 year, to sell the work is not difficult. They are easily bought and sold people have had enough money (though not always know where to apply them in those days, more of it than buying), but Peter preferred to leave work at home, despite the fact that the needed (it could be seen as his apartment). When he and his family were tired of the show, and we are tired of their look, although I must say that among the works was a lot of amazing paintings, which have attracted attention because of its color (Peter was recognized colorist ), we began to talk. .... We also addressed the question "Who better to sell the state or to private owners, who better to preserve the legacy of the artist." I said that the private trader, and Peter believed that state. None of us managed to convince his opponent Each left his or her opinion. We parted politely, Ina got her a wonderful portrait and I did not know then that I saw this artist in the first and last time in his life.
After many years, life itself has given the answer to our argument. A few years ago in Tbilisi have been running several exhibitions Petit, B., they were held in various galleries. The exhibition featured the work as from private collections (after the death of Peter, his family sold much of his works to collectors) and from the work remaining in the family. At these shows there was not a work that he has once acquired state. Despite all the efforts of his son to find those jobs and put them up, this could not be done. Nothing in the vaults of the Ministry of Culture (which at the time it acquired the painting) was not. .... If our dispute with Petya "State or private trader" was held today, I would say .- No one and no other. The best works are in the family. In the sense that they are always at hand and do not exhibit the problem. ... "

"5th paragraph" at anything.
Korolev, Seleznev, Crystal, Gorbachev, all written and even now are written by "e".

Cyril Syzransky, there should be a special flair. A simple enumeration is needed.
