Orthodox realism (or the ability to write, draw)

[Маруся]

A very strange title theme.
For maximum "realistic" Renaissance artists sought more. Do not Leonardo first began dissecting corpses to understand how the human anatomy is arranged - to maximize the "realistic" it show?
Then what are ortodoksalnst? In the sense of Russianness?
You please somehow decide you want to put the issue of Russian artists or Socialist realism? Or the contemporary Russian artists?
"Draw" could or could not all in different ways: Kandinsky, Malevich, for example, could not quite - academic drawing - this is not about them. But this did not prevent them from becoming great artists.
On the other hand - a huge mass of Socialist realism, the owner of a brilliant academic drawing techniques, but is so impersonal that it is impossible to distinguish one from another.
