Maybe some people, particularly members of noble families can be identified.
But needed some guidance.
On what date this list?
If Nonequal, indicate what kind of person when mentioned.

Wladzislaw, shows the Company's Kostandi took place in the period from 1925 to 1929 in Odessa. That is, the time interval is small. But if necessary, I will write about each name when it is mentioned. Among them, I suspect, the vast number of amateur artists in the exhibitions of the Society, they often exhibited. Everyone who could, I have found, but Barkovskaya books, unfortunately, even in Moscow in Leninke not (ie supposedly is, but take my colleague did not work). It remains to hope or help forum (which, actually, I hope), or to study all the doctors, growers, teachers, etc. (ie, all of Odessa intellectuals) to your address book, make assumptions, and then look for evidence of them. .. The approach is not scientific, that is, "It is not our method."

From the memoirs of Vyacheslav Pavlovich Snezhkova (1882-1959) :

At the meeting were invited not only artists , but also artists , musicians and representatives of science, which later became active members of society, have greatly contributed to the prosperity of "Thursday" . By the end of 1922 the popularity of "Thursday" has increased significantly. Among the significant number of members of this " union" played a major role , Alexander Abramovich boil and Alexander F. Lewis Carroll - both with big names of professors . First he studied and taught viticulture, and the second - the history of literature . United by their deep and sincere love for the arts . Alexander Abramovich was an amateur artist and often participated in the exhibitions . AA has gained fame as a writer and novelist , print their works in the collections of pre-revolutionary "Knowledge" (1907-1908 g ) . After the Revolution, was published three volumes of his works. Alexander F. Lewis Carroll was a friend of Leo Tolstoy and the tutor of his children. A great connoisseur of arts and literature, he became close friends with AA Boil. Circle of Artists for them became a mother , and in it they found a common , addicted to their work. On their initiative was created that existed until the end of 1929 the Company them . KK Kostandi . The society has existed for more than seven years , and during that time , AA Kipen was unchanged its chairman , and AF Lewis Carroll as his secretary . Treasurer of the society was the artist Alexander Stilianudi .
The first public meeting of the Society to them . KK Kostandi was dedicated to the memory KK Kostandi and was organized by the Art School , which is then received vysokotorzhestvennoe name of the Academy of Arts. The evening was very successful and showed that around the name Kostandi , a talented artist , an excellent teacher and a gentleman , can be combined not only his students , artists, but also artists , musicians , singers , poets and fans of the arts. The second evening was held in the theater "Torch" and had an even greater success. Both evenings were intended to raise funds for a monument at the grave of KK Kostandi . The monument was erected in the form of a lump - a huge stone in dark gray . On the polished surface of the monument in gold letters was the inscription : "The Artist KK Kostandi ." At a meeting of the Society A. Kipen pointed to the great propaganda value memorial monuments of prominent people who were erected in their place of birth, and offered to organize a committee for the protection of monuments. Society members , musicians , singers , readily responded to the call of artists. Was arranged a concert to raise funds for the commission. On the program of the concert artists perform cover art were eagerly bought by the public. Everything was done together , willingly. Reigned " peace-loving spirit Kostandi ." AA is always disposed of ... Boil.
A year later , in 1922 , the artists were buried another outstanding artist of Odessa , Titus Jakovljevic DVORNIKOVA . Death of Titus Jakovljevic greatly affected the overall kostandievskom the spirit of the Company. Society lost in the face of Titus Jakovljevic brilliant representative of realistic painting , deep criticism , sensitive friend and an excellent teacher . Ya Titus was buried beside the grave of KK Kostandi .
Friendly family of artists again responded to the call AA Kipena , and after a short time over the grave of the dead was erected as a monument of granite slabs with a brief funeral inscription:
"The Artist Titus Y. Wipers ." At the funeral, the grave was attended by all the artists , writers and professors. All stressed in their speeches the importance and role the deceased, and the members of their society . KK Kostandi more closely rallied for a lively and fruitful work. Sociedad . KK Kostandi suited evening meetings open , which were read reports, essays on art. Made extensive surveys of exhibitions taking place in the Union , in which to share experiences and views between the members of the Company. In these debates , and guests participated in large numbers to attend these meetings.
In October 1929 was to be held "Fifth Autumn art exhibition ." There were then thrust private rumors that all private and group organization of artists will be closed , and in their place there must be a socialist state union of artists. In this regard, the opening of the fifth exhibition somewhat delayed . It was supposed to open the exhibition , as before , in the National Museum , but was denied for any reason . The request of the Company, addressed to the administration of the Art School , was also rejected. At the meeting, which was a question of providing facilities for exhibitions, the floor was given to two students ( Art school was then called the Institute of Fine Arts ), which are expressed in the presence of students, that they exhibit the Company . KK Kostandi should not be allowed into the room of Fine Arts , as " these shows corrupt disciples." It was a period of fascination with expressionism , cubism , and others , is now irrevocably others acquired in the distant past. Then held offensive to the Company's decision : "Do not let " . A few days before the opening of the exhibition space has been taken away , which has been folded designed to exhibit paintings, sculptures, drawings , etc. Chairman of the Company's tireless AA A boil in these difficult moments , however, did not lose heart and continued to plead for the opening of the exhibition , and was looking for new premises .
Efforts were unsuccessful. The Company has been granted space for the exhibition at the State Art Museum Sabaneyeva on the bridge, which is currently placed House of Scientists . However, during this period began to appear in newspapers in Odessa various notes , articles defaming Society : In the " Black Sea commune " published an article entitled " Fifth Exhibition of the Society to them . Kostandi KK " (№ 2978 from the city of 30.H.1929 ) , in the " Evening News" under the title " back alley " (from the 25.H.1929 ), in " Black Sea municipality " under the title " Ulamok rozbitogo vschep " ( 18.H.1929 city ) . wrote Al. Svetlov Shpola , N. Ivashchenko TS in these articles rudely accused the company is that it is divorced from life and deliberately distracts others from the social problems of revolutionary modernity. blames the Chairman of the Company AA . Kipena , secretary prof. VF Lewis Carroll , Filatov , VP Snezhkova , prof. Kukoverova NA , as it was then called - doctors are not artists. But the authors glossed over or did not know that out of 13 man administration , formed the Society , 9 belonged to professional artists ; AA boil, VP Snezhkov , AA Smirnov artists were amateurs, VF Lewis Carroll - professor, and studied the history of art. Respond in print we did not have the opportunity. Even when the show was ready to open , a day artists Krainev Sause , Volokidin withdrew their exhibits and said the departure of the members of the Company. opening day of the exhibition was among the members of the Company's depressed mood . felt that the exhibition is the fifth in the life of the Society of the latter, and that life suggests that society must be eliminated . We have already indicated that they were placed in the Odessa newspaper notes, including in the " Evening News" was a satirical piece " back alley " .
It turned out that the " kostandievtsy " huddled in a quiet as the churchyard , smoky place with lanterns and plucked canaries . However, the sympathy of the public is still on the side of the Company. Students of Fine Arts also diligently visited the exhibition , and some even visited to examine some of the artists , as Lancer , Petrov- Vodkin , etc. At the end of October in the " Black Sea commune " skit appeared signed by TS The author asked how professional and community organizations admit the existence of such a society . After that lampoon the Union of Artists elected a commission to investigate the activities of the Company. At the head of this commission was the artist Beetle . Prof. VF Lewis Carroll was the Company 's general report , which was sent to the relevant government authorities, and the general meeting of members of the Company's 16 votes to 9, decided to close the company . This took place 25 November 1929 . The Company closed on November 24 last , fifth art exhibit them . KK Kostandi , which was attended by over 4,000 people.
Last Meeting of the liquidation of the Company held in the premises House of Scientists . Out on the street , "the family kostandievtsev " talked a long time and did not want to leave. Similarly, the funeral took place , and the people continued to share the best of days spent in the Company, combined unfading memory of a dear friend Kyriakos Konstantinovicha Kostandi .
