Sudeikin, Sergey (1882-1946), Russian artist, representative of symbolism, one of the foremost masters of the terms "Blue Rose".

Unlike most other "goluborozovtsev, Sudeikin (not without the influence of his friend Konstantin Somov) professed an" ironic symbolism, making his paintings in the picturesque splints on the themes of art, folklore, or "beautiful old" (walking, 1906, Tretyakov Gallery, in the park, 1907; Ballet, 1910, both work - in the Russian Museum, series actually Lubkov Shrovetide heroes, mid 1910-ies). These colorful, almost doll-like mini-plays with a stressed "unreal" figures and entourage were connecting link between his painting and scenography. Actively worked in the theater, starting with non-repertory opera Mamontov in the Moscow "Hermitage" (late 1890). He has designed in conjunction with NN Sapunov Death Tentazhilya M. Maeterlinck in the production of Vsevolod Meyerhold (studio to Cook's, 1905). Also collaborated with the theater: Komissarzhevskaya, New Drama, and the Small Chamber. In 1912-1913 took part in "Russian Seasons" of Sergei Diaghilev. Served as an illustrator and, in particular, the book is particularly close to him creatively, M. Kuzmin (chimes of love, 1912, etc.). In 1911 became one of the organizers and decorators artistic cabaret "Stray Dog".


In 1920 he left for Paris, from 1922 he lived in New York. Collaborated in Dzh.Balanchinym, VF Nijinsky, Mikhail Fokine, worked for Hollywood (1934-1935), Covent Garden (1939-1940). In the work Sudeikina embodied a synthesis of theatrical attitude "World of Art" and the mystical symbolism of the "Blue Rose". Aestheticism modern in his paintings connects with irony and elements of primitivism.

Eva777, thanks for the article.

I love the works of Russian symbolists, and the first and second wave. And what is interesting. Each of them was very individual, it found its own unique style and color. Vrubel-crazy purple crystals; Borisov-Musatov, languid women, and emerald-green; Kuznetsov soft blue fountains Sarian-bright colors of the east, Petrov-Vodkin, cheap popular, iconic red. In well-known houses Ryabushinsky "Black Swan", the Russian Symbolists goluborozovtsy more unusual formalized Zhukovskii in the Crimea. Park statues, interior, paintings, everything was in the style of Symbolism. Unfortunately, it burned down during the Second World War. Along with all the canvases of painters.

And the exhibition "Flowers remains a paradise on earth" beautifully presented with pictures simvolistichnymi colors of these artists.


  After you I put an article on another Sudeikina Nicolau Sapunova.
