Open 157-е trading electronic trading platform "AI Auction".

the Infinity string will start with a couple of graphic of species of works created early in the second half of the twentieth century in a different manner, but remarkably similar in mood. Painting of an Italian pencil on paper "Abramtsevo. The tree" (1921) Peter Petrovich Konchalovsky from the collection of the grandson of the artist L. M. Konchalovsky — master natural landscape related to the so-called "Abramtsevo" period of the artist. The work is interesting primarily for its composition: the artist focuses the viewer's attention on a lonely standing tree, thus creating not the kind of terrain, and images of notable details in this area. Aims as accurately and smoothly enter the trunk and branches of a tree in a rectangle of the sheet so that they are "not sticking out of the earth", and logically it was grown.

"Village Iganovo" (1970-1971) Viktor Efimovich Popkov from the collection of artist's heirs refers to the natural cycle of drawings executed during the travel of the artist in Russian villages. According to the expert, "this loop selects the thoroughness and clarity of execution, attention to detail, a special mood. Many of these full-scale drawings of steel work material for writing a thematic and landscape paintings Popkov".

Small lyrical watercolor "houses on the hill" (1940-50-е) Vasily Nikitovich Kuchumov is an example of the postwar work of renowned artist-пейзажиста, the master of historical paintings. Unlike his famous siege of landscapes of the first half of 1940-х years, our watercolor calm and harmonious breathing and feeling peaceful, serene life.

In free infinite space takes us drawing "Zharkent" (1991) naive artist Lucy Raven. "Zharkent in the mountains of Kazakhstan. There was an international Symposium on the felt. There we dwelt in the mountains and in yurts. Wolves, wild boars, eagles circling. The organizers feared for me — climbed in the mountains, in the bushes... In the tent a fire, and no smoke — goes in the hole at the top. And in the hole of a star with orange" (from a letter of Lucy Raven AI). It is the sense of wonder nature sends our drawing.

The Song "FL. Island Anna-Марии" (1948) David Burliuk is an American period of the artist. In 1940-е years he has created many small genre scenes with elements of the landscape, documenting the types of Florida, Arizona, Mexico, etc. They are usually characterized by grotesque-примитивная manner of execution, detailed contour drawing, decorative, characteristic texture of the painting surface, sophisticated and bright colors in which it is possible to note the overall brown-голубую range, combinations of turquoise-зеленых, pink-сиреневых and yellow tones. This work is our bright, very atmospheric and beautiful landscape.

One of the most interesting lots this week, no doubt, is a rare quality early landscape composition "Sudak" (1957) classics of nonconformism Dmitry Mikhailovich Krasnopevtsev. The work has an almost reference provenance and published in a massive three-volume study and catalog-резоне "Dmitry Krasnopevtsev: Diaries: Graphics: Painting" A. Ushakov in 2007.

the Atmospheric "Night" (2000) Boris Petrovich Kocheyshvili —laconic multi-figure composition, with the graceful lines of the silhouettes, created in a recognizable, distinctive manner.

Song from the cycle "the City" (1991) Vladimir Borisovich Yankilevsky — is a vivid example of the mixing of genres, characteristic of the artist. In spite of the very perceptible, and even the genre of landscape context, working with the first glance, perceived as an abstract composition.

Genre section provides a carefully written multi-part pictorial composition "the poet and the Muse" (1988) sixties Vyacheslav Vasilyevich Kalinin. Despite the overall fantastic and even grotesque scenes depicted, and the bench that sits the poet, and the surrounding urban space has a very real prototype. "Each of his paintings — first of all the story; almost all of his subjects — alcoholic Elegy. What can you do if Kalininsky theater actors belong to a variety of Russian romantic, soaring on the wings of a green dragon. It is difficult to imagine that the artist-шестидесятника it was a risky path of freedom, and coded octopus, which is the name of “socialist realism”, — does not exist in life, but deftly ran all nine muses huge utopian country — strangled him in his arms. And all this crazy yard, of course, influenced and responded in painting Kalinin" (Zana Plavinskaya, source: lebed.com).

Gallery fantasy genre scenes-рассказов continues detailed, done to the smallest smear of paint, stylized in the spirit of Oriental art work "the horse thief" (1950-е) Nicholas A. Mamontov. The artist from Omsk, he worked in Turkestan and Samarkand, lived and studied in Rome, was present in North Africa, lived and worked in Moscow and Leningrad, was exiled in Pyatigorsk, in the war worked as a non-combatant, in Kovrov, his days ended in Saratov. In this kaleidoscope of countries, cities, people, worries and impressions created by his author's style. "In all the world as if the Mammoth was on the verge of a primitive and fine art, gloomy mystery, mysticism, and utopian serenity, specific characters and game genres" (source: tg-m.ru). Works mammoth 1930-60-х close to the aesthetics of primitive art: for they are characterized by accentuated theatricality, brightness of color, the inclusion in the composition of exotic motifs, the styling in the spirit of Oriental art. The artist resorted to complex classical multilayer technique of painting with glazes (source: artinvestment.ru).

the Subject of creative interpretation, stylization of forms of the human body dedicated to a single sculptural composition of our 157-го auction — beautiful, dynamic cast aluminum sculpture "the Flute players" (1958) from the cycle "jazz" Vadim Abramovich Sidur.

Watercolor "Leda and the Swan" (1960-е) Artur Vladimirovich Fonvizin represents the author's development of the famous Greek myth of Zeus and his beloved Leda. It is known that the story took the idea of the master quite a long time, the theme of Leda in 1960-е years, the artist applied repeatedly, each time embodying this motif in more light, lyrical and poetic manner.

Another sophisticated female image — drawing"Girl" Rustam Khamdamov U. — sleek, stylish composition made by the author with a ballpoint pen on paper.

Section abstract works opens a very interesting song "the Widow" (1971) Vladimir Nikolaevich Nemukhin. Nemuhinskie laconic style, his works are alien to the piling up of small parts, everything is clear, clean and even lapidary. In "community cards" restraint of the artist in the visual language and the motifs are almost brought to the limit, but this picture represents all the recognizable elements copyright — from playing cards symbols games and destiny, until it flattened planes and colors, continuing and refining the ideas of the first Russian avant-garde.

-своему inspired by the ideas and achievements of the avant-garde of the early XX century and the author of our catalogue — contemporary artist Sergey Ledkov, whose abstract work with the catchy name "2 triangles and 3 oval No. 2" (2001) presented at the auction this week.

Elegant, very beautiful composition "untitled" (1996) brush our contemporary Alexei Firsov V. — as reflecting a transitional state. So he behaves slowly solidifying in the cold water: deep crystals are formed slowly, and in the upper layer are already growing and multiplying of frost. A rich color palette, subtle and sophisticated color palette, partly graphical regularity do the job extremely decorative.

the Following canvas refers to the style of abstract expressionism and manner of one of its main theorists, the American artist Jackson Pollock. "Number-10" (2016) another newcomer to our auction, Alexander F. Shumilina — is a vivid example of the same pasty, spontaneous technique of "spreading", which became a sensation in the art world in the middle of the last century.

At the junction of genres and, perhaps, where the interests of its Creator is astonishing expression "Suit" (2002) — collage using a real garment of the artist, designer Andrei Yurevich Sharov.

to complete the description of lots 157-го AI Auction a pair of still lifes — subject and flower production. Draw sheet "Vodka "Stolichnaya"" Oscar Yakovlevich Rabin dates from the year 2016, but has a more "adult" source — figure of 1961, the most valuable zaporizkogo period of the work of this outstanding artist.

Colorful, decorative "French bouquet" (2016) continues the traditions of the Vladimir school of painting Sergey V. Kremnev not only the name but also style — is free, expressive, bright — elusive reminiscent of the works of the "Russian French", representatives of the Paris school of the early — the mid-twentieth century.
