The artist in Gerasimov's biography was written by a chameleon. Russian artists. Gerasimov Alexander Mikhailovich. An exhibition is a big event in the life of an artist
The life of an artist cannot be cloudless, even if outwardly everything is fine. A true master always in search of funds artistic expression, and stories that will affect the person who turns his gaze to his picture.
Adolescence and youth
Born in the small town of Kozlov in the Tambov province in 1881. In it, on your small homeland, he will return again and again, taking a break from his busy life in the capital and gaining new strength and impressions. In the meantime, the growing gifted young man is studying painting in Moscow. His teachers were K. A. Korovin, A. V. A. Serov, real masters, whose works our Motherland is proud of. A broad sketch style of painting and rich coloring become characteristic of the beginning master. This is how Gerasimov the artist grows, mastering classical and modern techniques.
When did the first one begin? World War, Gerasimov was mobilized, and he spent two years at the front. He knew the full severity of trench warfare, when a person, as Sholokhov put it, is eaten to the bone by a louse.
Return and departure to the capital
In 1918, Gerasimov returned to his native Kozlov and worked there as a decorator for several years. In 1925 he came to the capital again. Gerasimov finds himself in the AHRR association as a painter. The artist now combines Soviet political topics with a traditional manner of pictorial writing. Conceived and being written big job"Lenin on the podium."
It cannot help but find a response in the souls of people who lost their leader quite recently, four years ago, and whose grief is still alive. But now they see Vladimir Ilyich against the backdrop of the scarlet banners for which they shed blood at the fronts civil war, energetic, calling forward... The picture is filled with the pathos of revolutionary energy and is written in a clear, intelligible pictorial language.
Portraitist
At the same time, he was a teacher at the School of Memory of 1905. Gerasimov had the ability to capture portrait likeness. Therefore, he perceived and positioned himself primarily as a portrait painter. It was in the 30s that the main thing in the artist’s work became portrait painting. He has individual and group portraits. He works on portraits of famous favorite actors and polar explorers. The group portrait “Cavalry Army” receives the Grand Prix at an exhibition in Paris.
Public life
The artist “opened the door” to his studio, and a wide stream of everyday life of people. The painter does not miss a single social event that affects the country - everything resonates with him. At the same time, administrative work is added: Gerasimov became one of the leaders in the secretariat of the board of the Union of Soviet Artists. Despite the lack of time, top officials of the state are beginning to appear more and more often in his portraits. Intentionally or unwittingly, his works are considered a model of how to write. Gerasimov the artist becomes Stalin's favorite portrait painter.
This is a portrait of Stalin at the 17th Congress of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) in 1934. More full of energy JV Stalin reads a report that evokes the support of the entire hall. Various shades brown, playing with golden reflections, do not merge, but give rigor and seriousness to the moment. This is the official "ceremonial" portrait. He will write a more intimate, “homely” portrait of I.V. Stalin and A.M. Gorky in Gorki in 1939.
A cozy setting on the veranda, flooded with morning light breaking through the greenery of the surrounding trees. Its pearlescent reflections are on the carved railings, on the tablecloth, on the clothes of two people calmly talking. Everything is filled with simplicity and tranquility. Calmness and peace are emphasized by a dog sleeping calmly on the floor. Gerasimov masterfully played up this friendly atmosphere. The artist did not regret light colors, who created such a wonderful harmonious corner.
A burst of inspiration
The picture that Gerasimov painted, “After the Rain,” is simple, light and poetic.
This is just a corner of the veranda with a garden behind it: a bench with railings, a shaped table with carved legs. A voluminous bouquet in a glass jug, an overturned glass - everything plays and shimmers with joyful colors, the reflections of the sun emerging after a downpour. The greenery of the rain-washed garden is lush and varied. All shades of green were used. Each leaf flickers, illuminated along the contour and illuminated with reverse side. The branches bent heavily, very close to the veranda, they were about to look into it. The puddles on the floor reflect the blue of the sky. Everywhere, on every object, raindrops sparkle like mother-of-pearl. The artist achieved a special state of freshness and purity by using reflections that leave behind both the green foliage and the white and pink bouquet on the dark wet surface of the table. Light and shadow are intertwined, but the shadow is made in many shades, and therefore also shines and shimmers, pleasing the eye. The viewer does not see the light source. The diffused light of the sun is somewhere behind the trees and bushes. It is not bright, but the warmth of the setting summer sun is felt everywhere. According to eyewitnesses, after a summer downpour, Gerasimov (“After the Rain” is one of his most famous paintings), delighted with what he saw, immediately took up the colors and palette and in one breath, without stopping, captured the marvelous landscape. But to be able to work so quickly and efficiently, you have to go through a long and hard way in painting. This is the only reason why the artist was able to express the sincerity of his feelings, which leaves no one indifferent, and to convey the energy of freshness to the viewer. Later, the master recalled his delight, his impatience when he worked on the landscape. Therefore, the work became truthful and poetic in every detail. It was exhibited in Paris, and the painter received the Grand Prix. This is not random luck, but the result of a lot of long-term work, conditioned by a lifetime. Adjacent to it is a family portrait created a year earlier.
In the same father’s house in Kozlov, on a hot summer day, the whole Gerasimov family gathered. It is here that the artist’s relatives permanently live without moving to the capital. The painter is relaxing serenely after intense activity with his family. He is preparing for the upcoming difficult and great job. The canvas is filled with light, peace and harmony.
An exhibition is a big event in the life of an artist
During these same years, more precisely, in 1936, the artist summed up his activity, which had already lasted a quarter of a century: his exhibition took place in Moscow, where about a hundred works were presented. These were paintings and graphic works.
Another portrait
A little later, “Portrait of the ballerina O. V. Lepeshinskaya” will be painted, in 1939.
The artist finds the leading dancer after warming up, she is no longer at the barre. Wearing a traditional ballet tutu, standing on pointe shoes, she is ready to fly up and continue the dance. A proud carriage of the head, a turn of the shoulders, a slight smile - everything speaks of the dancer’s temperamental, sparkling character, of her liveliness and dynamism, which she transferred to the stage. The inspiration and love for work that the prima ballerina experiences are also captured by the artist in this portrait. Olga Vasilievna was one of I.V. Stalin’s most beloved ballerinas, he called her “dragonfly.”
War
During the difficult years of the war, the master continues to work and transfers his personal savings to the Defense Fund. The historical genre now occupies the artist more and more. He creates portraits of heroes of the Great Patriotic War. During the same period, he painted “Group portrait of the oldest Soviet artists I. N. Pavlov, V. N. Baksheev, V. K. Byalyanitsky-Biruli, V. N. Meshkov,” for which he received the Stalin Prize in 1946.
Considering the great influence on the development visual arts provided by A.M. Gerasimov, he was awarded the title of People's Artist of the USSR. And also working on epic picture, dedicated to the conference of the leaders of the three great powers in Tehran.
So it showed up once again historical genre in the artist's work. The canvas captured both the appearance and characters of the people who took part in it.
Academician
After the war, in 1947, he was elected the first president of the USSR Academy of Arts. His close friend Voroshilov played a significant role in this election. For ten years, while holding this position, Gerasimov vigorously fought against those artists who were noted for innovation or even simply impressionism. He considered the degenerate art of the West alien to Soviet people. During these years, he created a canvas full of solemnity and pomp called “There is a subway!”
In the center on the podium is J.V. Stalin. But for some reason, all the attention is attracted not by the leader, not by the delegates in the hall, but by five huge chandeliers. Everything else seems smaller and insignificant.
In my small homeland
Big creative potential and the artist disposes of high efficiency when he comes to his hometown. Here he paints still lifes and landscapes that reflect him state of mind. Memories of years of work and study are reflected in these paintings.
“The Starling's Song” is the purest work without any pathos, lyrically telling about the beauty of awakening nature. Still life “Noon. Warm Rain” shows how the master yearned for real work.
In it, he can use all the available proven techniques, change the boring brown-red color to a subtle lilac-blue, show raindrops flowing down the glass, breathe in clean, moisture-filled air. This is life in its personal manifestations. This is Gerasimov the artist, whose paintings are far from official, but full of dreams and lyricism, admiration and pleasure.
Personality Traits
This shows another side of his personality. After all, in everyday life Gerasimov was a gentle, friendly person. He recommended that young artists not pursue titles, money and fame. They will come to the person who deserves them on their own after a long period of work on the design and coloring. He believed that you should not lose the artist in yourself.
Opal
After the death of I.V. Stalin, Gerasimov's influence began to decrease. And he himself has changed in appearance. It became as if shorter, lost weight. The intelligent eyes were sad. But he was already over seventy. The disgraced artist was perceived at the time as something outdated.
Life goes on
However, Gerasimov himself did not consider himself a retrograde. He knew that he was an artist, endowed with great talent by God himself. And this was true. Just what did he exchange his talent for? In order to survive, he had to compromise and serve those in power. There is a fine line here between serving Talent and the Rulers. How can you not slip off it? How not to cross the invisible line? These are eternal questions for every artist, no matter what field he works in. The musician Orpheus was faced with the question of who to serve - the light, clear, harmonious Phoebus or the dark, stormy, ecstatic Dionysus. So, since ancient times, everyone decides this question for themselves. Gerasimov Alexander Mikhailovich (artist) gave himself an answer, although he hesitated until the end.
Artist's Ambiguity
Future art critics, comparing two paintings by Gerasimov, which are in the State Tretyakov Gallery, can see in them timeless talent and will not reproach the artist for the pomp of portraits of Soviet leaders. How today we look at the ceremonial works of Franz Xavier Winterhalter or D. G. Levitsky and V. L. Borovikovsky, carefully painted in every detail, and treat them calmly - simply as works of art.
What did the Motherland give to the artist?
For services to the Fatherland, starting in 1941, A. M. Gerasimov was favored by the authorities. Awards and prizes simply rained down on him. He - folk artist USSR, he has four Orders of Lenin, the Order of the Red Banner of Labor.
This is how the life of the creator with the simple surname Gerasimov passed, in tireless work. The artist, whose biography is dual and ambiguous and undoubtedly marked by talent, died when he was 82 years old.
Alexander Gerasimov is an artist, author of a number of paintings on revolutionary themes. However, he also painted lyrical portraits and landscapes, in which the peculiarities of his work were particularly evident: bright colors, broad strokes, and a desire for sketch-like design of the canvases.
Years of study
Alexander Mikhailovich Gerasimov was born in a small town in the Tambov province in 1881. The artist, whose biography and work are the subject of this review, studied at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture for more than ten years.
At first he studied at the painting department, and here his teachers were: famous masters, like Korovin, Serov. It was from them that he borrowed his characteristic style of writing. The author also adopted a lot from impressionist authors, whose work he became interested in during his student years. Gerasimov is an artist who did not limit himself to painting, he also took up architecture, enrolling in the corresponding department.
Female portrait
While studying at a Moscow school, the author wrote a series interesting works, in which even then his extraordinary talent as a painter was reflected. In 1912, he created a portrait of the famous translator and theater historian Nadezhda Gilyarovskaya. The picture is filled with bright sunlight, its colors are rich and bright. In the center of the canvas there is a figure of a young beautiful woman in a simple summer house dress. In front of her is a table with a huge bouquet of flowers, which gives the picture a festive spirit. On background a magnificent garden is depicted. This picture turned out to be very cheerful, it is imbued with a love of nature.
Painting “Bouquet of Flowers”
Gerasimov is an artist who early stage In his creative work he was fond of landscape sketches. Two years later he wrote new picture- "Bouquet of flowers. Window". Like the first picture, it is painted with bright and rich colors.
These two paintings clearly showed the author’s passion for impressionism: the images do not so much tell a story as they convey the author’s momentary impressions. He placed emphasis on the imagery of the depicted objects, so their contours turned out to be somewhat blurry, the brush stroke was free and wide.
He graduated from the Gerasimov College with the degree of artist and architect. The artist was drafted into the army during the First World War, then lived for some time in hometown Kozlov and only in 1925 was given the opportunity to return to Moscow. Here he entered society revolutionary artists- the organization AHKhR, whose representatives developed the principles of socialism in their work. This period of the artist’s life dates back to his acquaintance with People’s Commissar K. Voroshilov, who took an active part in the fate and promotion of the painter.
Portraits
At the end of the 1920s - the first half of the 1930s, socialist realism became dominant in art. This direction implied the depiction of reality from the point of view of the ideals of the same name social order. Its main principle was nationality, which implied the accessibility and understandability of the plots. Gerasimov began to paint his paintings in a new manner. It is significant that at the time in question he perceived himself as a portrait painter. His canvases were distinguished by pomp and even some gloss. The artist created a whole gallery of portraits of party leaders (K. Voroshilov, V. Lenin, I. Stalin). Characteristic feature His works are characterized by vivid expression, expressiveness, and mobility of figures.
The painting “V.I. Lenin on the podium"
This painting was created in 1930. It was in this work that socialist realism most clearly manifested itself, since its content was imbued with the spirit of class struggle, which became main theme specified direction. In the center of the picture is the figure of this party leader, who leaned forward with a sharp movement, as if wanting to strengthen the meaning of what was said with this movement. The painting “Lenin on the Tribune” is imbued with the idea of struggle. Gerasimov deliberately plays on the contrast of colors. The sky is covered with dark gray clouds, while the speaker himself is surrounded by red flags, which are known to be a sign of revolution.
Below, the artist depicted a huge crowd of people with red flags. The color scheme of the picture turned out to be very colorful. Gray, almost black clouds stand out sharply against the background of white gaps, and Lenin’s black suit emphasizes the swiftness of his movement towards the audience. The entire composition is built on contrast, as the author wanted to show the dynamism of the struggle. In the same year, the artist created a second portrait of Lenin, representing him speaking at the plenum of the Moscow Soviet in 1922. This painting, unlike the first, focuses on the appearance of the speaker: his face is in the center, and his figure is again full of dynamism and swiftness.
Works from the late 1930s
Gerasimov created two monumental portraits during this period. The artist, whose paintings were not only lyrical, but also somewhat official, painted Stalin and Voroshilov in 1938 against the broad background of the Kremlin. The Secretary General and the “Iron Commissar” are depicted in full height. Both are watching construction works, unfolded in the capital. The painter did a particularly good job with the landscape in the background: the author depicted a city view after the rain, which he always did especially well.
The picture has a deep ideological meaning: the types of construction were supposed to show the viewer the achievements of socialism, the figures of Stalin and Voroshilov against the backdrop of a renewing Moscow served as the embodiment of the idea of the progressive role of the Bolshevik Party in the destinies of the country. A year later, the artist painted a portrait of Stalin making a report at the congress of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks). This canvas is also of an official nature and is distinguished by its pomp.
"Hymn to October"
This work was created during the Great Patriotic War, in 1942. While Soviet culture She was especially active in pursuing the idea of the progressive role of the revolution, the party, and party leaders. Much attention was paid to the personality of Stalin, who was presented as the legitimate successor of Lenin. The painting “Hymn to October” combines these above ideas into one whole. In the center is a bust of Lenin, above which hangs a portrait of Stalin in profile. Party figures are depicted in front, and on the podium on the left Joseph Vissarionovich speaks to the audience who filled the entire hall. The painting is made in red, which expresses revolutionary ideology. The meeting takes place in Bolshoi Theater(boxes are visible on the sides), which gives the image a special festivity and solemnity.
This painting is considered the most monumental in the artist’s work; it was presented on the 10th international exhibitions. All of the above paintings are canvases of a strictly official nature; they have become the standard of art in the country.
Painting “After the Rain”
This work is considered one of the best in the artist’s work. It is imbued with that subtle lyrical spirit that was so characteristic of the early Gerasimov, who began with beautiful landscape sketches in which his genuine love for native nature. In 1935, at the peak of his popularity, the painter unexpectedly decided to go to the Tambov region to relax. According to the recollections of the artist’s sister, he was amazed and delighted by the renewed landscape after a heavy downpour. Gerasimov wrote especially well the so-called “rain” stories. The artist (“After the Rain” is the most striking example of the author’s skill in depicting nature), like no one else, was able to show the state of the air, grass, sky and all environment during the period of its renewal. His painting breathes freshness and moisture. Looking at her, the viewer begins to feel the airy coolness and softness spread around.
Composition
In the center of the canvas is a garden porch (the second title of the work is “ Wet terrace") with an elegant table on which stands a vase with a bouquet of flowers. In the background is a dense garden overgrown with fresh greenery. Half of the picture is filled with light sunlight, which is reminiscent of the recent rain. Right side darkened, and this contrast is smoothed out by the azure tint of the sky, which seems to reconcile both sides.
The artist managed very well to show wet fresh foliage of trees, a damp terrace, and a table washed by the rain. The work was made in best traditions early creativity Gerasimova.
Career development
Gerasimov served as Chairman of the Council of Artists Soviet Union. He became one of the first artists to receive the title of national painter. For ten years, from 1947 to 1957, he served as president of the Academy of Arts. Gerasimov was engaged in developing the theory of art criticism, as evidenced by his receipt of a doctorate. In addition to paintings and monumental canvases, he was engaged in illustration (for example, his hand belonged to the drawings for N. Gogol’s story “Taras Bulba”). During the reign of Stalin, Gerasimov was a leading artist in the country, but after N. Khrushchev came to power, he lost almost all his posts, and his paintings were removed from museums.
In 1963, the famous painter Gerasimov died. The artist, whose exhibition was organized in 2016 in historical museum, it's been a long time creative path from a passion for impressionism to the transition to socialist realism. This exhibition presents his most significant works, as well as early landscape sketches, which clearly demonstrate the evolution of the painter. The painting “Hymn to October” especially stands out among the exhibits. This is a huge monumental canvas for a long time was kept in the museum and was not exhibited because, as it turned out later, there was no ceremonial meeting depicted on the canvas in honor of the anniversary of the revolution, but the painter received an order to depict it in the picture.
This painting is interesting because, being a monument Soviet era, clearly shows the ideology that dominated our country at one time. That is why the painting is of considerable interest to the Western viewer, who can get an approximate idea of thinking from it. Soviet man mid 20th century. Gerasimov's creativity was extremely diverse: he painted family portraits, landscapes, and official canvases. Being an architect by training, the artist painted buildings.

Gerasimov had the gift of easily capturing portrait likeness and felt himself primarily a portrait painter, although he often turned to landscape painting, creating a number of subtle and lyrical landscapes ("March in Kozlov", 1914; "After the rain. Wet terrace", 1935, etc.). Among his portraits, individual and group, over time, images of high-ranking people, state and party leaders, begin to predominate. His large canvases, not without poster pathos, include “V. I. Lenin on the podium” (1930), “J. V. Stalin and K. E.
