Bull. By Vladimir Lysenko. Savitsky Collection, Karakalpakstan Museum of Art, Nukus. This is from a collection of Soviet art collected at great risk to himself by Savitsky during the period where avant garde was considered extremely anti-Soviet. Artists were exiled, imprisoned or killed for depicting anything other than propaganda Soviet Realism. The collection, housed in a remote location in Uzbekistan, is under threat due to the Uzbek government’s disregard for its value. #bucketlist #art #savitsky #soviet #lysenko #artunderthreat

Ivan Shishkin and Konstantin Savitsky - Morning in a pine forest (1886)

[zapipisnik]

This soundscape is a kind of collaboration of year 2012 and 2013. Some brilliants from the past with fresh wispering voices of tomorrow dating on the landing place. Stay quiet and listen to their dialogue.

двойное имя тает на ветру случайный окрик над водой канала деревья голые стоят как на смотру и холодно и сонно по утру и солнца мало   в застуженном пальто уткнувшись в шаль вдоль грубо нарисованной решетки бредет гетера с нею старый враль глаза слезятся скучно денег жаль в смешке его собачьи нотки   но воздух чист а грязная вода какое ни на есть но небо повторяет и там где мрачные сцепились провода два ангела заплаканных всегда иcаакиевский светильник охраняют

1973

"Silk Road Media (UK, Hertfordshire ) and the Karakalpakstan State Museum of Art named after I.V. Savitsky are pleased to announce the publication of “Igor Savitsky—Artist, Collector, Museum Founder” by Marinika Babanazarova, Igor Savitsky’s successor as Director of the Museum since his death in 1984. The biographical book about I.V.Savitsky written by current director of the Museum M.M.Babanazarova has come out. This publication is the result of many years` work based on the author`s diploma dissertation, which was defended in 1990 in Tashkent Theatre and Art Institute. Archival documents of the Museum, Savitsky`s family archive and recollections of a wide range of people who knew the founder of Nukus Museum are the basis of this book. Publication of the book was carried out with the support of club members “Friends of Nukus Museum” (Russian and English versions). The publication in the French language will receive support from the Embassy of France in Uzbekistan.

The presentation of the book will be today at Pushkin House, 5A Bloomsbury Square, London, UK."
