In 1983, he invented an original method of preparing the ground under the bed, guaranteeing them a strong grip.

Can briefly about it.
He was primed as a basis for his own? The recipe I do not need a ground-important principle of the invention. And what he takes to the foundation?

At first, I too could not understand how and on what the picture painted George Shishkin. Yes, and around, no one could say that. I've seen on the big show, as artists have gathered in front of his picture: look closely, surprised, feeling the rear side, trying to understand. But I was only impressed by the very painting. The album Georgy Shishkin, published in Paris in 1995, where there are also reproductions of his works in oils and watercolors, as well as several drawings for reproductions of pastels napisno that basis - the canvas, from about 1983. The recipe and process of preparing the soil under the bed, apparently, still a secret master.

Very interesting. Masonite under the bed? Yes, there should be a special primer.

I was told of a case. One picture of George Shishkin (pastel) transport (closed only a thin tracing paper), torn from the trunk, fell on the roadway face on the asphalt - which acquired it in Moscow was taking her to Paris. It happened on the highway leading from the airport. He stopped the car on the roadside, but the movement was so intense that he could not immediately take her. And this was even a little rain. Imagine the situation? In the picture flux drove the wheels of cars (about one hundred). When the owner of the picture, which came in the horror of what he saw, finally managed to pull out now, he saw that ... Pastel painting survived.
He called the artist in Moscow to tell about the incident: "Such a nightmare! .." The artist, still not knowing what was over history, tried to calm him down, they say, do not worry, I'll come to Paris now correcting, or (if possible) a new write. And his answer - do not worry, the picture is already on the wall hangs a framed, come - you will see.

Here is a test of the strength of painting.

... and the fire is not lit, and the water does not sink! Ok.

Bed does not get dark in contrast to oil painting, which continues to chemical reaction.

fborth, but crumbling, the main problem. Therefore, with the ground, all wise, and the basis for everything they want or on a frame to pull, or just a passport, a frame and under glass, to carry less flexible basis.

IrinaC, if you have already converted these pastels and they are under glass, nothing they will not. The main thing is that the board on the passport was thicker to himself drawing (picture) glass is not touched. And how much paper there is a basis for using artist ... What is it convenient for work, probably.

Pastels George Shishkina not crumble.

The Museum d'Orsay in Paris held exhibition "The mystery and magnificence of pastels" ( "Le mystere et l'éclat du pastel"), which became an event. It will last until February 1, 2009. I visited this exhibition, having stood a great place. Maurice Quentin de La Tour, Peron, Francois Millet, Edouard Manet, Degas, Odilon Redon ... Impressive. Acquired by catalog (sorry, that reproductions have lost some characteristic luminous pastels). It should be noted that the French word éclat has another meaning: Lights. But really, the impression that the pastel shine in comparison with oil paintings, which, unfortunately, become darker over time. (Basis pastels - these are the same pigments that form the basis of oil painting, not only pigments mixed with oil, but with special glue.)

Artist Georgy Shishkin works in pastels for over thirty years. His commitment to this material, he explains this (interview): "I've been experimenting, searching for material that would be better answered by my internal movements. It gave me a bed greater freedom."
