Gallery "July 12" is the first official exhibition of Russian avant-garde artist Mary Borisovny Kazan (1914 - 1942).

Her name disappeared almost without a trace on the pages of the Soviet dramatic stories of the 1920s - 1930s. About a hundred paintings canvases, hundreds of pencil drawings, as well as memories of her younger sister - Tatiana Borisovny Kazan - that's basically all that allows you to extract the name from oblivion.

Mary of Kazan (1914 - 1942) Biographical Sketch:

She was born in St. Petersburg in the family of intellectuals. Since the end of the school year at the Academy of Fine Arts was set, Kazan began taking painting lessons from Faith Ermolayeva.

In his work, Kazan chosen direction, characterized by emotional, impulsive, color, line and composition nervous. The artist was trained by Ermolayeva to December 1934 - the time when she was arrested as a "counter-revolutionary party groups trying to establish an illegal foreign relations and a leading anti-Soviet propaganda among others."

In March 1935, Maria Kazan released. However, it is still quite a short time engaged in painting, ceasing to write in September 1937. Young artist died in 1942 in the besieged Leningrad.

Recent exhibitions of works of Mary of Kazan held at the Museum of Private Collections "On the banks of the Neva River" (2001), in the Benois Wing of the Russian Museum "Time to collect" (April 2008). Creativity Mary of Kazan has only recently begun to open to the public.

The Collector JM Noses of Mary of Kazan:

Maria Kazan was a student (in the medieval sense of the word) and companion Faith Ermolayeva - one of the famous "Amazons" of the Russian avant-garde, repressed after the assassination of Kirov, who died in the camp in 1938.

Arrested - for a short time - and Maria Kazan. In this still very young girl was fine mental organization, questioning its effect on the psyche, she fell ill and died at the beginning of the siege. In fact, it only worked in the first half of the 30s.

Kazan is different from "the Circle" pronounced expressive gift. To lay down her life differently, as powerfully could turn this gift. We Ermolayeva Kazan was a good training school. I have seen the earlier work in which she tried different style, consistently passing through Cezannism, Pointillism, Post-Impressionism, Fauvism. Recent exhibitions, which are exhibited at Leningrad, in fact only begun to discover the author to the public.

Understandable desire to tie it to the Russian avant-garde - and the cart can also become attached to the money under an expensive Russian avant-garde.

But it is a clear correspondence-Impressionists, even signatures can be put.

And no Russian avant-garde.

's desire to tie it to the Russian avant-garde - and the cart can also become attached to the money under an expensive Russian avant-garde.
But it is a clear correspondence-Impressionists, even signatures can be put.
And no Russian avant-garde.

Maria Kazan was a student (in the medieval sense of the word) and companion Faith Ermolayeva - one of the famous "Amazons" of the Russian avant-garde, repressed after the assassination of Kirov, who died in the camp in 1938.

If you, dear, from this phrase read that the author took Mary of Kazan to the Russian avant-garde, then sincerely recommend to read the books in the Russian language. But not very aware of how the syntax of the Ukrainian language is different from the Russian, but apparently ukrainization to go in vain for the former Russian speakers.
However, you can do without textbooks.
Here is a brief explanation of which, I hope you'll understand.
In this case, the noun "Amazon", together with its definition, involved two turnovers and two dependent words, acts as a common definition to the name "Yermolayeva", as agreed with him on the case (in this case, the genitive).
If something is not clear, ready to provide further clarification.

Is the work of a remarkable artist Mary of Kazan rehash of Impressionism? To the same extent that it is possible to tell, say, otnoscheniya to Larionov. If you want, select only the "impressionistic" work and please - here's a "rehash". If Larionov made only them, it would not be Larionov. What has been said is quite true in relation to Kazan. However, one sees that he wants to see.

As for the classification (if there is a wish to think labels) that Mary of Kazan should, perhaps, be described just the name of one of the recent books on this phenomenon in the Soviet art of the 1920s and 30s - "Between the avant-garde and socialist realism."
This is the definition of "contradiction" that is not associated with the stylistic features, but rather a definition of the historical and social plan. Olga Roytenberg called him "galaxy", some call "the silent art." The author of the book sometimes uses the term "non-polar art." Well, etc.

But you can impressionism - that's how anyone would want.

The main thing - what a great artist ...
