He made an impression on his contemporaries complex, many embraced with enthusiasm by both the explicit kind of talent and terror "(Alexander Benois).

Eugene, when comparing to my opinion. Benoit wrote about really gifted artist. You seriously think Shulzhenko talent? I do not believe that you really think so! You wrote it for a laugh ...

[SergeiSK]

Few of Shulzhenko:

But I, as a Russian, I have every right to ask: "And for that we love?" Yes we are the worst people in the world - the evil, lazy, envious!

I have never lived among people who are portrayed, and not try to climb them in the soul. In my childhood was mama's boy, knew neither the army nor the zone.

No, never married, no children, and started what is now sorry.

now because in painting one direction - to get to talk about himself in any way. Do not become famous through the centuries, and more grab at life.

Well, who in America knows Pushkin?

In the latter a drop of no doubt
  I think that we should not draw parallels with Shulzhenko Bosch, Grigoriev, and others confuse apples and oranges. Basil Shulzhenko ordinary marginal artist, he was all up to Fenya, except money. It is this way and not hide. Admire it or hate it - do not need. Just ignore. His painting is nothing of itself does not represent the artistic, nor in an investment sense.

Dear Tjutchev, but to explain the phenomenon Grigorieva with one hand "barbarian", "horrible pictures" on the other genius, as understood by his contemporaries?
Yes, there's contemporaries, our esteemed administrator, a talented artist and that Constantine wrote:

but if he wrote from life then aunt terrible. How does it work in this profession?
3) Marseille prostitute - 1 308 500 GBP

[Konstantin]

Yes, I remember it.
And yet, and said he was surprised because he had witnessed the same thing. 10-12 years ago, maybe even more, being the first time in Paris and the Place Pegal, he saw on the street dreadful aunt, all in feathers, pink tights, and painted like Vysotsky, about clowns. Worth akimbo in the marked anticipation. I have said - is like a prostitute, but can not be. It turned out well and there is, seeing that we look at it immediately began to call us, as in "Briliantovoy hand" hardly got out.

Konstantin, so creativity "barbarian", who wrote "terrible aunts" You like it or not? Would you hang a picture "Marseille prostitute" at home?

Being the first time in Paris and the Place Pegal, suddenly saw on the street dreadful aunt, all in feathers, pink tights, and painted like Vysotsky, about clowns.

Zaedte more like a ride in the Bois de Boulogne, I promise to never forget the show transvestites of all stripes, and similar razmalevanye aunt, about the beauty can not speak (her beauty in the ordinary sense) Exactly exactly like the pictures we have discussed the artists. True representation in the woods every day, the police chase sometimes.

Such pictures should hang in a museum!

[Кирилл Сызранский]

Paintings by Boris Grigoriev and now cause a backlash.
Here I am standing in the State Tretyakov Gallery on the Crimean-old women with thrush, a strong thing and consider that there is. He came close until there was nobody. Then came a young family, mom, dad, daughter, age seven. I gave way, but not left and involuntarily overheard a conversation between mothers and girls.
In short, they got scared and quickly left, something continuing to talk to each other.
I can imagine the reaction to a series Grigorieva "race", what charges he listened to his address. And, of course, were the first, "You do not love Russia, you do not like Russian.
While the motto of all the tragic life of the artist himself expressed the phrase:
«I am all yours, I love Russia and Russian ...»


Boris Grigoriev. The old thrush. From the "race". 1917. Oil on canvas.

For example, I hung a home any Grigorva.

[Konstantin]

Konstantin, so creativity "barbarian", who wrote "terrible aunts" You like it or not? Would you hang a picture "Marseille prostitute" at home?

Sure would be hung. Grigoriev I really like. And he has no blemish. There is a harshness and bleakness of life, combined with the ease of a brush. In a word very much.
