Particles being or polysyllabic simplicity of dreams and myths Dmitry Ikonnikova

Toutes les pierres sont pareilles,
toutes les pierres sont precieuses: mais
l'homme n'en voit que quelques-unes ...

Dmitry Ikonnikov: "Pictures are many levels of perception and awareness. Who - would see less me who - you will understand what I live, and who - you can see and more than me."



Artist Dmitry Ikonnikov was born in 1952 in Murmansk. Childhood and adolescence spent in the North, where parents, Muscovites, went to work on the distribution of after graduation.

In 1964 the family returned to Moscow. In 1969, after graduating from high school, worked as an artist Dmitry - performer in a monumental workshop of the Moscow Regional Plant artwork. While attending evening drawing classes at MGAHI Surikov.

1972 - 1976 years - the study at the Moscow Pedagogical Institute in the art - graphic faculty.

Much has been written about Ikonnikova, it is called a modern classic. I will give you a small quote one of the articles:

"True to his education schedule Ikonnikov always works only on paper. But to call it a simple graphical composition language is not rotated. In - First, it is, for the most part, large sheets, dockable, moreover, on a solid basis (for example, affixed to the tablets). In - Second, the favorite artist gouache on larger planes, which he prefers, as if loses its specificity: instead of coating layers occurs subtle game with translucent, almost lessirovochnomu surfaces, even with a variety of textures, reminiscent of the natural irregularities plastered walls, the smooth surface of the water zekalnuyu, the hard-packed sand of the beach. Sometimes when you look at the work Ikonnikova seems that we face - fragments of some never before seen paintings on the walls unbuilt buildings. This is evidenced by the undoubted author's ability to subordinate his decision compositionally uniform - a color problem, which guarantees the integrity and as a result - the inner monumentality of the composition.
