Korotkov and Mitrjashkin have presented to a city of 400 jobs.
In halls of the modern art of the Samara art
Museum the exhibition of gifts of the Moscow artists of Elena has opened
Korotkovoj and Michael Mitrjashkina.
In halls on the area of Kuibyshev at Mitrjashkina in different years have passed
Four personal exhibitions, were exhibited also separate jobs.
Now here four hundred sheets of a drawing are exposed almost,
Written and collected by Elena Korotkovoj, and also portraits of ours
Fellow countrymen of brush Mitrjashkina. While they have taken places nearby, and then
Will take the places in different expositions and in museum funds. Before
Opening of an exhibition the correspondent "WITH" took small interview at
Michael Jakovlevicha Mitrjashkina.
- Exhibition opening has collected many your friends and admirers,
Known Samara artists...
- With many of these people I am am connected by friendship, which
Half a century and lasts more. I consider myself samartsem though has left
From here in 1943 and many years I live in Moscow. But with the native land
Never communications interrupted, here there were at least everyone
Three-four years. Participated in creation of branch of a museum - houses
Repin in SHirjaevo which on August, 5th this year has noted the
Decade.
We, artists, have joyfully apprehended thought on creation here
Museum - after all Repin was the first who has opened this marvellous place in
Zhigulis.
Many then tried to help to create an exposition. I, for example,
At relatives has found etjudnik which used in 70-80
Years of the last century, has resulted it in a working status and has presented
repinskoj expositions. Still then I have reflected on other gifts
To the Samara museum. Three years ago, when an art museum
Marked the 100 anniversary of the collection, the first passed in Samara
Constituent congress of fellow countrymen. On him I have given the public promise
To make an exhibition of the jobs and the wife in a native city.
But illness and Elena Andreevny's death have a little removed it
Event. Now I have fulfilled the promise.
The exhibition consists of three parts. The first hall - a drawing and etchings
Elenas Andreevny. It was the native of Rostov-on-Don, but never
Did not write steppe landscapes, spoke: "There there are not enough verticals". But
With the Samara earth has fallen in love at once and for ever. Wrote Much
Volga, Juice, especially in their floods. Its other favourite
Places were Moscow suburbs - the well-known small town Tarusa, Southern Urals Mountains,
Crimea. All these jobs are presented at an exhibition. It sang
Natural silence, was the opponent sometimes senseless
Intrusions of a modern civilisation into the nature world.
Last years it has made a series "Russian beauties", where
Women in ancient Russian clothes are represented. A series
Has promptly dispersed, remains only seven masterpieces - gold
Fund which I while store. Though, I will probably, soon present to one
From museums of Russia.
- Elena Korotkov was also the collector?
- Yes, the second hall of an exhibition represents the collection collected by it
Schedules. Here all very known names of outstanding artists
Russia 10 - 30th years and later time. It were gifts
To the wife, it has got something, something has found in the old family
Archives.
- In the third hall - your portrait jobs. Why you so much
Write samartsev?
- These are portraits of my Samara friends, my teachers, thanking
Which I also became the artist. George Podbelsky, Alexander
Ljubimov which learnt us to think in painting, to comprehend that
You write.
Here portraits of artists of Samara Genes Filatova, a beginner
(In 1955) critic Annety Bass, such what it was in
Those years: young, beautiful, warm. Portraits of my invaluable
And violent friend Valentine Purygina - with it we are on friendly terms 64 years.
- Its portraits draw attention. A portrait of 70th years
Represents the young strong person. Something in him is from
Russian workman, self-assured and the craft. The second
Portrait of last years where the artist is much more senior, much
Gone through, but all as believes in the business, in the correctness.
- At me it is written Valentine's seven portraits, and this the eighth -
Last. It is a pity a little, what not all its portraits are presented on
To exhibition. They trace an intense psychological life
Rather uncommon person... Finishes my series of gifts
Self-portrait and Elena's last portrait with tsiklomenami. It I
Has written one year prior to its leaving from a life in an end presentiment...
- Except portraits and schedules among gifts are still posters, yours
The book "Pictures on hours" and poverstochnyj the guidebook to Volga,
Published in 1903. Here it is possible to find all: cost of hotels and
Journey to them from landing stage, the description of settlements, number
Inhabitants in them, an occupation. There are also the ancient legends connected with
In each Volga verst...
- I do not know, whether other copies of it were saved
The guidebook, but I have considered myself simply have not the right to own it
Individually.
Nina Platonova.
