Exhibition project of the 70 th anniversary of the artist Igor Vulokh opens tonight at the museum of modern art Art4.ru

Today, at 19.00 a preview exhibition project «Igor Vulokh. Zhivopis.Grafika », Art4.ru museum devoted to the 70 th anniversary of the master.

Igor Vulokh talks about himself so: famous I made mistake .

And talks: By his generation and a selective attitude, regardless of label, which gave them the press or other connoisseurs. Abstraktsionisty, Sixties, nonconformists, - all these labels on probation. Sometimes the more distant era seems close, but more immediate - so-called avant-garde - on the contrary, seems very distant. So the common category for me does not have a decisive importance.

But, that writing about actual anniversary art critic Alexander Panov: Vulokh not write manifest, no talks on the front. He paints as if just from the natural needs. It draws on the fact that sees just having too original optics (although whether applicable to this artist Slovtsov «too »?!). He appeals to their abstract, deliberately deprived daedal name-nomination, if any remaining «untitled» (favorite reception!) Constructs-«Compositions» to full-scale artistic pervoformam origin: «Landscape», «interior», «box», «wall». Or to the times of the year - «Autumn», «Summer», «Spring», «winter». What could be simpler and arhetipichnee?

Where is the rigor? From childhood in Kazan, the military, the death of his father, and a few years, carried out in an orphanage? From the walls of the Kazan art school, which still remembered the beginning of the century avant-garde?

Or affect VGIK, where the artist is attached to the world kinokulture and met with a sign for his future creative people: artists Нисским , exhibition of Igor Vulokh holds the first private museum of modern art Art4.ru, timed to coincide with the anniversary of the artist. In 2008, he was 70 years old. This is the biggest surprise in the author's exposition, so far from any mainstream - whether it is habitual, the so-called «hudfondovskaya», painting and graphics (ie, that the members of the Union of artists painted on orders art fund to decorate homes culture et cetera) or less is now commonplace vanguard art of protest nonconformists.

The exhibition presents the work, it can be said of all periods of art Vulokh, including the earliest work, dating back to the early 1950's, and the flowering of the artist - works by mid-1960-1970's. Several works related to «white period», especially the well-known in his works.

The exposition will include more than one hundred and twenty works of artists: from the artist's family, from the collections of the Museum Art4.ru from other private collections. Moreover, many works will be exhibited for the first time.

Art and Graphics Igor Vulokh. But not only. All researchers in one voice say sintetichnosti Vulokh creativity, his musical and poetic elements. Not so many years, his closest friend was a famous contemporary avant-garde poet Gennady Aigi. Many poems were dedicated to Vulokh, and many collections of them illustrated. The exhibition will sound recording Aigi lyrics in the performance of the author, will be shown the originals of illustrations Vulokh, the orchestra will play Mark Pekarsky, also a contemporary artist and poet.

The exhibition will be open to the public from 10 to 31 October 2008 at the premises of the Museum ART4.ru: Moscow Hlynovsky impasse, 4.
