I opened the topic about the Moscow artist Natta Konysheva.
It is just a link for the study of those who do not know or not familiar with her creativity to the page from Wikipedia: http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Конышева, _Natta_Ivanovna

Those who are not familiar with Natta and creativity, can accept it as "a crazy city," seized by a mania drawing.
 not attempt to invent a precise stylistic name what she was doing. It soon came to the literary term "stream of consciousness", which was renamed for the arts in the flow of paint "or" stream writings.

This realism and surrealism, expressionism and primitive together. This, as the Germans would say, stylistic «mischung». But at the same time it is very recognizable individual, that is konyshevskaya style images. It's really evolved over the years, its free technique of rapid writing, and beginning a portrait, or even multi-figured compositions in the morning, finished it for dinner, or (depending on the size of the canvas) to the evening meal. But the ending, it can suddenly something spontaneously recall and quickly finish desired, in its view, detail, sometimes significantly altering the original idea.
The peak of creativity Konysheva fell on a difficult and troubled time, 70-90-ies, when Russia's artistic life is lukewarm in the Brezhnev years of stagnation, then, conversely, was in full swing during the so-called "perestroika". Conspiratorial apartment exhibitions, legal bursts on "Little Georgia, 28, Arbat and metropole libertines in the open air, and, finally, our times, when it was time the most important test - the test of freedom. Konysheva for all these decades remained by itself, since its inner freedom can not be defeated by any external factors.

The peak of creativity Konysheva fell on a difficult and troubled time, 70-90-ies, when Russia's artistic life is lukewarm in the Brezhnev years of stagnation, then, conversely, was in full swing during the so-called "perestroika".

That's just from this statement can not agree, because right now, in recent years Natta Konysheva unfinished many of his canvases, as well as the beginning of the powerful landmark paintings in size 200x300 or more. In these works, it reveals all his most interesting observations, Natta accumulated over many years of creativity. While these works are not exhibited and are in her studio, Natta their appends. This is the "vanguard of the Kings" (about 300h200), "Antique Show" (about 300h200) (dimensions in centimeters), as well as a grand canvas "Izmailovo" over which Natta has been working for many years. I very much hope that these paintings will be available to viewers at the exhibition
Project for the 20 th anniversary of the Creative Union of Women Artists "Iris." Women artists in contemporary art.
SPRING FESTIVAL OF WOMEN'S ART IN Novy Manege.
February 22 - March 8, 2010. As part of the Festival - the exhibition of all types of fine art, creative cuisine, which is planning to take part Natta Konysheva.

All the rooms are hung, forcing littered with paintings on canvas and hardboard. In addition, the interior a lot of different things: the plaster busts, antiques from garbage dumps and flea markets, toys, tapestries - some of the windows as curtains, others - under your feet (a large tapestry presented to the artist Lucy Voronov) .
