"Jack of Diamonds" - Association of Moscow artists, leading the beginning
of the same name of the exhibition, organized in 1910 by His members had VD and
DD Burliuks, NS Goncharova, Pyotr Konchalovsky, AV Kuprin, N.
Kulbin, Mikhail Larionov, AV Lentulov, Kazimir Malevich, Ivan Mashkov, R.
Falk, V. Rozhdestvensky, etc. The name belongs to M. Larionov,
which apparently was referring to the negative interpretation of the image in the spirit
old French interpretation of a playing card: Jack of Diamonds --
rascal, rogue. "Explaining his choice, the artist said:" Too many
pretentious title ... as a protest, we decided, the worse the better
... What could be more absurd than the "Jack of Diamonds"? ".

      For the artists association is characterized by pictorial and plastic in the quest
spirit of post-impressionism. Bubnovovalettsy developed a peculiar
pictorial-plastic system (the so-called Russian sezannizm), where
principles of Cubism and Fauvism, implemented with the influence of Russian folk
Art - lubok, painting on wood and ceramics and paintings and trays
signs. Of all the genres of painting, they expressed a preference for a still life, landscape
portraits, solving the problem of constructing three-dimensional shapes on a plane with the
color, transfer the "real" nature, its invoice tangibility.

      At the exhibitions "Jack of Diamonds" in addition to paintings by members of the association
featured the work of living in Munich, Kandinsky and AG
Yavlensky, as well as the French Jean Braque, C. Van Dongen, F. Valotona, M.
Vlaminck, A. Glez, R. Delaunay, A. Derain, A. Marquet, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso,
A. Russo, P. Signac, and other famous artists, arranged open
debates about the fate of modern art, read the reports, etc. However,
the association itself, corroded by internal divisions, was
short-lived. In 1911 he left most of the radical
artists (Burliuks, Goncharova, Larionov and others), oriented in their
works on samples of folk and primitive art, kubofuturizma,
abstract art. They organized an independent exhibition Poldi
epatage called "Donkey's Tail". In 1916-17 gg. Another group of artists,
professed moderate and committed to a more traditional easel
picture (Konchalovsky, Mashkov, Kuprin, Lentulov, Christmas, Falk)
passed to the "World of Art". After this "Jack of Diamonds
virtually ceased to exist.

In 1912 began opening the exhibition "Jack of Diamonds", which, along with Picasso, Matisse, Derain, Van Dongen, Delaunay, Leger, Kirchner exhibited Konchalovsky, Falk, Mashkov, Kuprin, Lentulov, Kandinsky, Exter Burliuks etc. The exhibition has caused great interest among the public, and was three sheets criticized by art critics for excessive radicalism. Artists also have followed Larionov and Goncharova - Shevchenko, K. Zdanevich Le Dante and the breakaway from the Union of Youth "Tatlin and Sagaidachnyi, criticized the exhibition for the academic quality. So Goncharova responded to this exhibition: "Cubism - a good thing, though not entirely new. Scythian stone women, Russian painted wooden dolls, sold at fairs, made in the style of Cubism. Over the last decade in France, first worked in the manner of Picasso's cubism talented artist, and in Russia, your obedient servant. From his works, made by Cubist style, I in any case not refuse, but I can not take its relationship with flabby conscience "Knave of Diamonds".
Two weeks after the closing of this exhibition, opened the exhibition "Donkey's Tail" (11 March - 8 April) in conjunction with the St. Petersburg League of Youth. In this case, exhibited in the same room, the group had separate signs and directories, because they were skeptical about each other. The merger was due to the fact that on the one hand Larionov feared that Petrograders can join bubnovalettsam, increasing their influence, on the other hand so it was easier to penetrate in St. Petersburg. In this exhibition, the exhibitors were: Larionov, Goncharova, Larionov, Ivan - brother of Michael, a very talented, incidentally, W. Barth, S. Bobrov, V. Bubnov, K. Dydyshko, K. Zdanevich M.Le-Dante, P. Lviv , K. Malevich, V. Markov,, A. Morgunov, S. Nagubnikov, P. Potipaka, N. Rogovin, O. Rozanova , E. Sagaidachnyi, I. Skuye, E. Spandikov, V. Tatlin, P. Filonov, A. Shevchenko, M. Chagall, I. Shkolnik and others
Trouble began at once: the censors had banned 10 entries: 8 Goncharova's works with a religious theme, a religious work as Rogovina and sketch of models Filonov. Estimates of the press suddenly turned out to be diametrically opposed: from staunch rejection to osharashennogo admiration, but also liberals and conservatives celebrated creativity Filonov, "strongly beyond the general level.
It is worth mentioning the identity of Larionov: if bubnovovalettsy focuses mainly on Western painting, in many cases, simply repeating it, the artists of "Donkey's Tail" developed the picturesque neo-primitivism, which has deep domestic roots, and this was the most interesting in the first stage of the evolution of Russian avant-garde.

One of the little known (until recently) artists' Jack of Diamonds.

Sergei Lobanov (1887-1942).

     Sergei Lobanov - one of the little-known public artists of the first half of the twentieth century. His "fovistskie" landscapes exhibited at the Jack of Diamonds "(in 1910 and 1912), unfortunately, continue to work Lobanova barely exposed (except for a few exhibitions in the 20-ies).


Lobanov studied in the studios FI Rerberg (1906) and II Mashkov (1907), at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture (1907-1913), but in the years of training at the school he became an expert on the history of art (seeing in 1908 on a tour of European museums of its teachers Mashkova had never been in Europe Lobanov detail explained to him what cities to visit and that in a museum to watch). In 1914, Lobanov engaged in courses in art history at the Moscow Archaeological Institute, and in 1918 was admitted to the Department for Museums and Monuments Protection in the People's Commissariat. In 1922 he was appointed curator of the nationalized meetings SI Shchukin. Within one and a half decades, Sergei Lobanov was deputy director of the State Museum of New Western Art (later a large part of the collection was transferred to GMNZI GMII im. Pushkin, becoming the basis for collection of French painting of the second half of the XIX and XX centuries).

After a brief stay in the ranks of the Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia (in 1924 excluded "as an alien ideology AHRR and general camaraderie of life") Lobanov was in art associations, and participated in the exhibition only when he was invited. The artist is constantly pursued the lack of materials. "As you should be happy - Lobanov wrote to the Paris-based director GMNZI BN Ternovtsu - see in shop windows paint, pencils, canvases, albums ... which I can only dream about!" If you want to please me, buy a tin box of watercolors Windsor - New York on 18-24 cups. "

If the majority of Soviet artists 1920-1930-ies have sought to create large canvases, designed to meet the "greatness of the revolution" or "build a new life", the canvas left over from Andrei's - mostly small landscape sketches - a kind of "pictorial shorthand.


Lobanov was not only a serious art critic (in 1925 he published a booklet on Polenova and Levitan, and in 1935 was awarded the degree of candidate of sciences), but inveterate teatromanom. In 1924-1925, using acquaintances among theater artists, it becomes a "citizen of the scenes of the Bolshoi Theater, performing the" three hundred drawings on the themes of the ballet. This is an outline of ballerinas preparing to exit, with the stagehands or grimiruyuschihsya actors. Note that even under a cursory sketches, almost hints at the figure, where the barely discernible figures of dancers, Lobanov, and left next to the monogram "SL" very extensive record - "La Sylphide. 6/IV 925" or "Tikhomirov. Bayadere. 31 /V 925 .


But does the Augmented privacy artistic occupations Lobanova its loss from the evolution of art 1920-1930-ies? Of course not.


You can compare the creative development Lobanova during training at the School of painting with its evolution in the Soviet era. In late 1900-ies from the gray-ocher, almost "Serov" tones ( "Portrait", 1908) Lobanov passes to fovistski intense color ( "Cold Sun", 1909, "Portrait of a Woman", 1910). At the Jack of Diamonds "in 1912, he gave a group of close to each other fovistskih landscapes (" Water in the evening, "1911," the White House in the Garden ", 1911). Early Lobanov gravitated toward the German participants "Jack of Diamonds" (A. and G. Munter Jawlensky) with their commitment to violet, purple, cold-green, an intense "Naked color" to compare pure "color emanations.
