Koshlyakov is a member of the Association of Art or Death "that emerged in late 1980 in Rostov-on-Don. He became known for the discovery of large-format paintings on cardboard.
Koshlyakov works with the theme of the symbols of world classical culture, which in his understanding is not an outdated phenomenon - that is, was what her new art . The artist took it upon himself to rehabilitate the beauty, freeing her from the dungeons of kitsch. Hellenic spirit - one world of ideas of beauty - the author re-opens. Ruins of a Greek temple or imperial-style building could be seen clearly on the cardboard, as the same litter, abandoned civilization, only built in the rank of the myth.
«Koshlyakov initially interested in space. Architecture, landscapes, and monumental sculpture dominate among its subjects. The materials he uses - huge pieces of cardboard, foam, tape adhesive tape, spreevye cartridges - powerfully already present themselves, and, simultaneously, form a sharp contrast with the beautiful illustrations. This opposition becomes more alive when an artist extends its activities to the urban periphery, changing firewalls and walls of houses in the "vision" of the museum rooms and majestic scenery »(Igor Zabel, curator).
The exhibition "unattainable" in the Perm Museum will be showing the five romantic scenes from different periods of the artist's oeuvre: the early work of 1990, fragments of the installation "Polyhymnia", shown at the Venice Biennale in 2003, the installation of "Cloud" (2004), the project "Shelter "(2006), the project" Out of Reach "(2009).
