" Memoirs . Grandmother "
After his parents were arrested and expelled from the house, and his sister Hsara educated grandmother . They lived in a cellar under the stairs. My grandmother knitted wool socks for sale and those fed the family. " When I went to art school - says Hsar - teachers say that this artist may be the one who writes nudity. I was very upset : money for sitter , of course , was not. Then my grandmother said , "I'll pose to you , I will only knit socks , so as not to waste time ...." My grandmother was a great man . "

Tsop, the picture near the window shows the sister Hsara ?

Open to us " heels " in the general character of the picture, in my opinion,
 have similarities with the way Icons Our Lady of Vladimir , where the Christ Child
 left leg is bent in such a way that is visible "heel". >

Yes, this is my sister, she died in 1962.


That self-portrait painted Hsarom a year later, in 1963, the picture is not very clear-hole in his chest through.

Sorry to get so sad topic, but this is such an artist.

When writing the main track , the paintings Hsara , it becomes clear that it has its bursts of creative activity. One of these bursts - 2000 - 2003 . After a bit of "quiet" period in the late '90s , the artist has experienced creative Wake - repeated many of his old stories in new, multi-figured compositions written Aisa anaZana ( Drinking Song ), wrote a very tragic picture - illustrations of his favorite poem " Afhardty Hassan " ( Saga about the guy to avenge his father ), the writer A. Kubalia ), experimenting with abstraction.
 Unfortunately, not all the work while qualitatively captured. A brief review of the 2000s:
1. return
2. The Vision
3. is rain
4. Costa in the embrace of the mountains ( Costa Khetagurov )
5. moonlit Night
6. Still Life with Fish
7. Nico and deer
8. night
9. Mourning
10. conversation

I want to decipher. Hsar was a postgraduate student at the department of theater artists at the Surikov in 1964. He offered to do the sketches for the decorations for any Ossetian play. Then the artist himself wrote a play based on the poem " Afhardty Hassan " and made sketches for the play. The play has not survived , many sketches , too. In the early 2000s Hsar returned to this theme and wrote a series of paintings. In his diary on the forum I posted a poem in Russian pictorial works Gassieva
Several works :
