Today, July 15, 2009 painter Oleg Tselkovu turns 75 years old. On this day in 14:35 Channel «Culture» shows a program from the cycle «Episodes». In Oleg says: «In the 60 years I found it, so you can continue to live. I created something. A person with a narrow lbom and a massive chin. All of the following years I worked with them ». It is this nameless hero Tselkovu road. Some people call it «humanoid bubble», others - «inflatable dummy», and the artist thinks that his character comes from the «hitherto unseen tribe».
Biography Tselkova typical of the nonconformist Soviet era. His first exhibition was held in Research Institute of Kurchatov and lasted only two days. The second ended after 15 minutes after the opening: representatives of the KGB to turn off the lights and the audience dispersed. An exception Tselkova from the Union of Artists. In the late 1970's, Oleg went to Paris where he lived until now.
«When I came here, all the galleries hung abstract nor figurative one thing over which you'd like to think. It's hard to find a gallery of abstraction. This is a terrible rarity! », - Says the artist. The program «Episodes» Oleg Tselkov tells why was forced into exile, whether it is nostalgia, how comfortable he live and work abroad. «I do not belong to any school, nor to a specific area and, indeed, I did not even find a manifest of samples, to say that I was taught to draw in pencil Repin and write butter - Surikov. There is no! Neither the color nor the song, nor, most importantly, in character! I sincerely feel, first, the self, and secondly, low in the art of man ».
Part of the shooting took place in Paris, in the house and studio artist. «Mandatory for my condition - the canvas is in the studio a year and a half. This unhurried process. You can spoil, spoiled and very difficult to correct », - said Oleg Tselkov.
The other part of the shooting took place in St. Petersburg and Moscow on the artist's personal exhibition at the State Russian Museum and the Tretyakov Gallery. «When a picture is hanging in the museum, she falls in the capable hands of custodians. I gave several of his works the Tretyakov Gallery, Russian Museum, State Museum of Fine Arts named after AS Pushkin, Hermitage. In these museums, I grew up, they told me a nurse and raised. Maybe, my paintings will inspire any artist, taught him something or give an impetus to creativity ».
