Konstantin Kalinovich .. ~ ~ Score subconscious ...

Konstantin Kalinovich .. ~ ~ Score subconscious ...




Avercamp's World. Watercolour, 18x13cm, 2006

It happens this way: in the pitch darkness
Waking up, looking for the contours of objects,
And then fumbled a long void
Words ... for not voiced answers ...

Doubts bygone years,
Almost forgotten life stories,
And if, in the moonlight okunёshsya
Other people's spaces - familiar territory.

And it will be so clear and clean
Melody forgiveness and farewell,
Dropping from the music sheet,
Forgotten scores subconscious ...

Particular cases




Walking Alone in the Night. Watercolour, 15x18cm, 2010

To say that I admire this artist means - to remain silent ...
Through its intuitive creativity sprouted from the fertile soil of Slavic mythology ...
Yes, yes, that's right, in my opinion, despite the dyurerovskie shades and all that stuff ...


Kalinovich Constantine (Konstantin Kalynovych) was born in 1959 in the Russian city of Novokuznetsk, graduated from art school, then studied architecture at the Leningrad Civil Engineering Institute. There first came to the studio and etching for life became interested in engraving. Perfecting his extraordinary talent already on the faculty of the Ukrainian Academy of book graphics printing in Lviv. Since 1985, he has created around 300 bookplates in etchings and woodcuts. His works are in the Royal Academy of Arts (London, UK), in the National Library of Russia (St. Petersburg, Russia), Museum of Art in Cedar Rapids (Iowa, USA), the University of Wales (Aberystwyth, UK), the museum Davis ( Wellesley, USA), as well as in private collections around the world.

The artist lives in Lugansk, leads a quiet existence of non-public. Although he is known far beyond the city ..
I will not even try to list all international competitions in which work Kalinovich were awarded: the list is huge, and it is of interest only to specialists. A layman to adequately assess the level of work done enough already to the fact that Constantine Kalinovich 1992 is the only post-Soviet space a corresponding member of the Royal Society of British engravers and painters.

He himself, however, commented on this fact quite original: "It's just that there are limits - every year to take a certain number of artists from abroad." Of course, this indicates a lack of Kalinovich often inherent to his colleagues excessive ambition, but also says a lot about his attitude towards his craft. "Serving the Muses not tolerate fuss" - it's like about it said.

He studied graphics in Leningrad, but deliberately chose to live in the province. From the window of his studio offers a typical rural views, and every morning he enjoys an idyllic landscape with cackling geese and chickens kvohchuschimi, shaggy mongrels and frolic rebyatney. And this peaceful life somehow miraculously transformed into his engravings, arguing about which critics are not in vain recall names Bruegel and Dürer.

It's not just the plot echoes of the great masters, but in manic thoroughness Kalinovich. For him, every detail is important, and if it appears leaf pattern, there is no doubt that the next there is bound to lodge a bug. In the series "Winter Dreams", however, no insects - not the season. But there are many other lovely creatures. And it seems the artist was not joking when he says that if warm their eyes, that they may live.
