in 1976 In the art world it pushed something over: during an all-nighter in the art Studio spellbound for the rest of the class statement Kate could not resist and other colors made his first gouache. The head of the prop shop of the national theatre was 40-й year. The next morning, her work admired professional mentor and convinced that her true calling — art. Original artist working in memorable primitivist style, surprisingly quickly fell in love with the cold, does not believe in tears Moscow. Already in 1981 Katya Medvedeva was successfully held personal exhibition in the Russian house of creativity. It's recognition began to grow circle of connoisseurs, it began to fly.

Today Kate Medvedev is among the favorite by the public in the full sense of folk artists. Her paintings and drawings are in the hundreds of families in Russia and abroad. Katie works can be found in reputable collections of post-war non-art, and in homes with very modest incomes. All understandable: work with warm, kind, and even quite affordable — that in former times that in the current.

Katya Medvedeva works a lot. Heard complaints that it works even too much. The fact that the hands are thousands of works, should not cause concern. It is rather good. After all, the presence of a large number of owners provides a reliable Foundation for the preservation of the interest of the artist. It is no coincidence that the prevalence of the works of Vladimir Yakovlev (by the way, they were friends with Kate) has led to the fact that his shows are today collecting thousands of spectators, and the love for his creativity passed down from generation to generation.

the anniversary exhibition, which next Sunday will close at CHA, showed that in 80 years, Kate Medvedev is in excellent creative form. Her paintings 2016 are not inferior and sometimes superior in strength and energy works 10-15-летней ago. Life teaches her a new challenging topic, but the artist-прежнему don't forget about your favorite Christian stories and, of course, ballet.
