Helped establish the name and surname of the artist

[раскатов]

Konstantin Cosmin was married to Helena ( "Lula") Alaskan. Krzhizhanovskaya. 1909 - 1988, painter - graphic artist, then children's writer.
Moruo search on this path. If Helena had been deported, then most often in connection with the case of her husband.
We must find what the writer.

Liudmila, as I understand, the figure was created in the camp?

STAR ON THE HORIZON OF SMOKE
Kuzmin, MA Diary 1934. Ed. 2-e, Corr. and add. (ed. Moreva GA). - St. Petersburg, Izdatel'stvo Ivana Limbaha, 2007.


is this sentence:

And in his country life, under the tutelage of a young ON Hildebrandt and Youri "Yurkuna, M. Kuzmin permanently resides in the art world: is engaged in translation (with gusto pravlyu" (King) Lear "), playing the piano, socializing with" La Boheme "- the artists (including theater), art , museum staff, musicians, writers, scientists and humanists. This is a great variety of names: K. Koz'min,

This "country life" refers, as follows from the same review by May 1934 and leaked it to the Children (Tsar) Selo in rest house researchers. Perhaps, in this diary have any mention of Koz'min.

Here is the text of the diary Kuzmina. Only this previous edition, 1998. Mentioned in it and Koz'min.

The notes indicated that the name of his wife Kozmina - Krshizhanovskaya, and here http://rgali.ru/showObject.do?object=211503452
there are documents where it is mentioned.

At Alib sold 5 kinds of children's books, published in St. Petersburg in 1960-70-ies. The publishing house "Children's Literature". http://www.alib.ru/findp.php4?author=?????????????

One even released in 1984. It turns out that the writer known - that certainly known to her biography. In children's books, it is unlikely to be given, even in fragments, but that's something.

...... writer known - ie certainly known to her biography. In children's books, it is unlikely to be given, even in fragments, but it's already something.

I think that it is time to look in the library - dig thoroughly, well, something also must be more - a little more than yet have the Internet ...

... as I understood, the figure was created in the camp?

This picture really made the camp just before his rehabilitation in 1955. Like those flowers, too - because they are in a state that is also a "serving" their SibLagovsky "term" (yes, my scanner is still somehow in the figures issued fatty yellow stripes and slightly distorted colors - here for some reason they came out more vivid, in fact pastel bit lighter, softer and the color of the paper is the same - as the very first portrait picture ... size 20h14)

These flowers are not signed, but they are drawn at one time and the same man for my grandfather. They are probably in that camp, in the area of permafrost - wistfully dreamed of just such colors ... their freedom ...

Oh and do not yet know - is this really an artist, KS Koz'min (I want to believe but are afraid to be deceived ... so far for me quickly sum up the incredible - so much information in a short time and so soon! "Thank you all - huge - for this effective help!) In general are now at least I know in what direction and to move beyond that and someone to look ... might have something on the go will find in the links - will be extremely grateful for this information assistance.

some strange link

Sorry, the picture has changed - from smaller to larger a reference to radical jumps gun shows - because through him and me put these figures - or until you can do: confused:

[Allena]

Liudmila, if Koz'min Krshizhanovskaya and in 1930 lived in Leningrad, and after many years of her books were printed again in the Leningrad publishing house, it's likely, traces of them must be sought in St. Petersburg. Previously, the Leningrad Branch of the Writers' Union was very powerful. I do not know, but maybe there is some sort of archive of the office? In my opinion, the magazine "Neva" was the organ of the office, and, thank God, it still exists. By the way, maybe there apply to your story? They had the topic "The Seventh Notebook", which published a small historical essays, and so on. A theme of repression in general they have with the beginning of the restructuring was the main (that a lot of harm to this wonderful magazine). It is possible that they will dig up something, if your interested in history. Incidentally, on the cover and inside them are always printed beautiful prints Leningrad, ie schedule of contacts with the St. Petersburg were the closest. In any case, they have a huge audience of educated people. Surely, somebody knows about Koz'min.

Another consideration is: if EI continued to print, then KS to 1960 had already been rehabilitated or their family relationships have ceased (which can greatly complicate our search). In any case, try looking in parallel RGALI and in The St. Petersburg publishing house, which was previously a "children's literature."
 
It is strange that the Internet there is no mention of KS Koz'min in the postwar years and until his death. Not working? Hardly. word, to think necessary.

Here is another interesting reference (note: the information relate to the post-war period, that is, if it is "our" Koz'min, so repressed, he was after the war, and it turns out, not because of familiarity with Yurkunom):

In 1946 re-established School of Technical Drawing of Baron Stieglitz, who later LVHPU them. Fly (the first director - architects I. Wachs and M. Shepilevsky). Retaining its capacity and maintaining the blockade of its personnel, begins training LHU them. Serov (Director - artist Shabpovsky), resumes work Arts Foundation at Leningrad Union of Artists. Together with the enterprises of the city on a contractual basis, begins to work in the field of advertising and industrial graphics Artistic Council of the Fund. He has the right to assess the quality and acceptance of industrial and graphic design and standards for publication. The first council was composed of such well-known at the time schedules as Koz'min

The text here: http://www.advertology.ru/print25257.htm

And here's another interesting ссылочка:

great contribution to the development of applied graphics made by Leningrad artists (AP Graphics Pavlinskaya around us: the work of the Leningrad masters industrial graphics. [Album] - LA: Hudozh.RSFSR, 1962). As noted by VN Lyakhov, "progress they have made in the design of consumer goods, are obvious to anyone who has had the opportunity to compare the clearance of goods on display in the windows of stores in Leningrad with registration of similar products of other cities." [4] The album - the work of Mr. . Vasilyeva, P. Ivlev, K. Kozmina etc.

It's here: http://www.belrus-seminar2008.narod....senko_E.P..htm It also stands for a reference [4].

See how interesting: http://www.leningradartist.com/chronology_r.htm
Here is one of the entries for 1958, states:

In the halls LSSH opens "Autumn Exhibition of works by Leningrad artists". Among the 510 participants - TK Afonin, GK Bagrov, AA Babitsky, VS Bodrov, NN Baskakov, V. Belov, J. T. Besperstov, LN Diamond, ZN Byzova, AI Vasil'ev, EP Vasil'ev, RI Vovkushevsky, AG Golovastov, II Godlevskii, AG Eremin, EN Grigorieva, A. B. Grushko, VN Guskov, S. K. Dmitriev, F. E. Zaborowski, DI Zaitsev, MA Zernin, ET Zubehin, I. Zisman, G. A. Kalinkin, SM Kantor, K. S. Koz'min, VA Kravchenko-Buvalets, M. Kozlovsky, T. B. Kopnin, AD Kochetkov, PP Litvinsky, VB Larin, OL Lomakin, G. K. Little, NP Medovikov, L. A. Milov, AV Mozhayev, I. Novikov, M. Neprintsev, VI Ovchinnikov, S. Osipov, ED Padva, NM Pozdneev, SI Privedentsev, SI Rozanov, LA Ronchevskaya, ML Rudnitskaya, LA Rusov, GA Savinov, A. Semenov, A. Semenov, K. N. Slavin, S.

Then Koz'min with this chronology is not mentioned once (though it does not figure - a lot of artists, all will not name). It turns out that a little later in 1946 Koz'min was still at large, and in 1958 - fully rehabilitated (otherwise this exhibition would not have taken).

Liudmila, excuse the mess, got "what I see - that pile up in a pile, but I hope something of all this, you will find useful.

... sorry for the confusion, it came out "what I see - that pile up in a pile, but I hope something of all this, you will find useful.

Dear Allena, thank you!
None of this mess, but rather quite interesting. Information picture emerges and the thought still inclined to think that maybe our version would be good, and - easily our common definitions and conclusions, but I'm more inclined to think - that this is possible, and not KS Koz'min camp painted the pictures ... perhaps he was not at all repressed (fortunately for him and for all of us - too afraid of their fate), perhaps there was a different artist and also a timetable and watercolorist, and also good - I do not judge on these figures, as for the "Anatomy" - a pity that you do not show it now ... it really was a lot better than the artistic side of everyday sketches. Especially knowing exactly what the man drew it from memory (in Latin, he could help my grandfather - the old school gymnasium, and studying at the Military Medical Academy at the time gave much more in this regard than it is now, and this knowledge have always practicing physician to repression were fundamentally strong - during the camp thaw it without preparation, without a single error passed before bias-strict and that the medical commission of medical /what level of education higher nursing /exam at the camp, medical law and worked for the remainder of the camp and felsherom until after his last hours of life was treating people working in the hospital - but that is another worldly history, though I could not fail to mention that). Well, unknown to us, too, was a professional artist and a very, very nebestalanny people - since no rasstratil their knowledge, skills and abilities in the camp hardships. Now I tried through my new friends who are interested in individual and personal histories of the repressed, to convey my request to search among the Siberians and vorkutintsev people who knew or could something or someone to remember, even in the brevity of reference ... in those places - and suddenly, and will be found someone's memoirs memories (for people already living in the hope of the weak force venerably-age categories - the people because the older generation than our parents - which is also far longer young, and so many is no longer ... like our grandfathers)
in the common quest must continue - to me it is very interesting and it became more interesting due to all of you, because before I do not even reached for this nostalgic thread of my exploration interests.
And from the line K. Kozmina also too early to give up - not yet quite clear to his biography ... Of course, in those days, more and more given over long periods ... and, of course, would not have to write about a man who spent time - although you never know ... anything can happen with the amendment to the talent and public recognition ... times were difficult, controversial (to some persistently suppressed murderous oblivion, but to someone, and all their desire to censor could not ...)

[Allena]

Liudmila, I think, first of all need to either confirm the attribution KS Kozmin, or abandon it and seek further. It seems to me necessary to first contact with the Leningrad branch of the Union of Artists (or as it is now called). Try to write them. Here, at the forum, there are many very knowledgeable people from Peter, I hope they will prompt - for example, of Leningrad. Possible, to maintain the catalog of the exhibition in 1958, and perhaps there is a work of KS Kozmina (although 510 people participants - this is a bit too much for the catalog). If they called him "a known schedule, you should also have been preserved in its work. In short, while all roads lead to Peter.

And if after all our hypothesis is confirmed, about the "Neva" I said quite seriously. At one time it was my favorite magazine (and not just because the editorial board was part of my most-favorite writer), so based on the total reading, confident that your story might be interested in them.

As for the little time ... In fact, he might be a lot more, but, thank God, ended prematurely.

Thank you, Allena, totally agree with you, and today will try to write on your advice: the author Leningraders and the magazine Neva (to this magazine and we nostalgically warm attitude: once then our eldest family received their subscription), try to find and Union of Artists in St. Petersburg.

And I ask all Members of this topic magnanimously forgive me , if before the end of the month of May this year not be able to communicate - I'm flying to Harbin - a program of meetings in advance painted by leaps and bounds, not sure what will be time on the Internet. Once back, immediately go out to the Forum.

with grateful respect
and most good wishes
