Vagrich Bakhchanyan is the person who came up with the line "We were born to Kafka to make dreams come true"; the pioneer recovco "How to tie a tie, take care of it. He's with red fish one color"; alias Lemons for teenager Savenko; my favorite phrase "beat thumbs — save Russia!" and creative method SOSреализм. As well as hundreds of other characters, concise, mottos and coats of arms.
Like the signs born of Moscow of the 1970s, the era of relatively satisfying, but pretty-poisonous "the Kremlin brulee". Or Russian new York of the 1980s—1990s, "alluvial land". Sots art now distressed, as red Arbat trays. The first rung Komar and Melamid. And novel the Lion Khalifa "CDL" is not readable decisively.
But for some reason not outdated artifacts Bakhchanian. For example, historical insight was the phrase: "Wallet — weapon of the proletariat!". Puns and collages Bakhchanian — the living daylights in the collision of two disparate, ossified (each) of reality. They coincide with a flourish. Unexpectedly. Funny. Hurt. At the point of contact in the mind of the viewer winds crack. Narrow but goes deep. Alas, plein air-1990s, a rich and promising, as Podolsky dump, wasted: a variegated landscape lacked Bakhchanian. He arrived in Moscow from new York only in June this year for the First time in twenty nine years.
In the club "Fly" to 17 June opened an exhibition of his collages. Published by "North" was released dvuhsotstranichnoe book "Flies a lot. Arts". The first book Bakhchanian in the historic homeland.
"I don't know what Vagrich did in Kharkov (in my youth. — Ed.) but knowing him for 20 years in new York, guess what, nothing good. Suffice it to say that Limonov, who Vagrich came up with the alias, Bakhchanyan considered a Mama's boy," writes Alexander Genis
