***

Bela Ossowski was born in 1938. Interest in drawing manifested itself in her since childhood, though the family no relatives had to do with art. She graduated from the Faculty of Applied Art and the Moscow Textile Institute. After graduation, Ossowski lived in Moscow and worked in art and design office (the first design bureau of the Soviet Union). And all my life drawing. Bela's work Ossowski rarely appeared in exhibitions, but a couple of posts in the "sparks" and "Young Guard" about it no one else has not written anything. It was not interested in fame. She died a few years ago, leaving behind a voluminous folders with graphics, as well as hundreds of canvases.

In papers Ossowski dominated two major concerns: the sea and flowers. Bouquets created in watercolor or oil paintings on canvas, small size, make up almost half of all the great works created by the artist. What is it, a desire to escape from the Soviet reality, from a near its aesthetics? Which only symbolic meanings did not have the image of a flower in the world culture ... Beauty, spring, youth, innocence, purity, and, at the same time, the inevitability of decay, the transience of youth, and, finally, life itself. Bouquets Bela Ossowski - thin and airy - remind us of the fragility of the world, the rapid flowering of life, the transience of flowering.

It seemed attracted big water, beckoning her. Images of bays, ships, changing and transforming, moving from sketch to sketch, from the canvas to canvas. Seascapes Bela Ossowski if woven out of thin air. Translucent watercolor tones dissolve in the shifting haze. Black bars gulls, sharp contours ship pipes create a steady beat, the composite system, fix an act of presence and active human behavior in light and air flow.

His art, Bela Ossowski continued the tradition of the school of French Impressionism. Her landscapes and still lifes painted virtuoso and at the same time anxious brush. In her works imprinted fragile harmony of the world, its instant, poignant and changing every moment of beauty.
