“The best words to describe the life of Victor Kravtzov are the words of Alfred Lord Tennyson- “I am a part of those I have met”. There seem to be no places in the world he has not visited. He has been to the Far East, the North, Siberia and the middle part of Russia, in many foreign countries. Everywhere he met new people …..with their national originality and the laws of the ancestors which are amazingly depicted on his canvases. And wherever Victor Kravtzov was, he absorbed national traditions of different nations and then created in a consequence the refined colour of images.”

Vladimir Bychnisky. The professional artist, a member of the Union of artists of Russia, professor.

Born in 1951

Lives in Krasnoyarsk (Russia)

“ In the paintings of Vladimir Bycnisky we can always find the future. It does not matter what we observe on the canvas: a modern construction or a fantasy beginning. People in his pictures are from the future, with other faces and eyes. In their eyes we can see the reproach to our neglect not only to the Founder, but also to the world around us. And the internal light, penetrating into the spectator, makes us search for the answers to immemorial questions of good and evil, love and hatred, and for the solution of secrets of the Universe.”

Svetlana Zarembo. The professional theatrical artists.

Born in 1959 in Krasnoyarsk

Lives in Krasnoyarsk (Russia)

“ Why do you start seeing the music all of a sudden? Why do you “see” people in some abstract visual formulas? Why is the full moon, generating at people’s splashes, both of high and low emotions, looking at you with an eye which the ancient Egyptians used to draw? Pictures come up on the internal screen from subconsciousness, with exact forms, the composition, the texture, the color. They are ready formulas of life, only not mathematically expressed, but RAWN.

  I love all, because each millimeter of flat space is important for it to start functioning and to begin radiating the information incorporated in it, and the energy….”

Leonid Shchemel. The professional artist, a member of the Union of artists of Russia.

Born in 1952, Krasnoyarsk.

Lives in Krasnoyarsk.

“  All began with la dolce vida loca… years of youth and study. And a portrait is completely complementary to those bright experiences. After the certain period of a worldly life there came the comprehension of fussy life, senselessness of plebeian existence. There was an absolute necessity of returning to himself. After a big break in painting he began to draw portraits in the street. He greatly enjoyed this opportunity. But then the disappointment began to arise: all creative he could, went away, without being fixed. There was only a track. To the counterbalance he turned to etudes. Then it became insufficient and he turned to “nu” that appeared to be the strongest energetic counterbalance. And at last there was a returning to the same vida loca.”

Ivan Danilov. The professional artists, a member of the Union of Artists of Russia.

Born in 1954 in Krasnoyarsk

Lives in Krasnoyarsk.

“ The creative destiny of this Siberian artist Ivan Danilov is unexpected in the emotional displays. His ability to catch and embody the force of changeable feelings on the canvas solves an instant of realized opportunities, an instant of realization of his inspiration rises and falls which persistently follow the irrepressible sincere nature of the artist. His soul organically merges with the life of the canvas , and through the picture as in the cardiogram, we catch all pulses of internal movements. In this chaos of vital and simultaneously sensual changes the basic beginning prevails and realizes all aspirations of the artist to express himself through the palette where the sacred act of the feelings and the paints merging takes place. The act is called the inspiration embodiment.”
