About the book

The publication addresses the oeuvre of 20th-century avant-garde artist Petr Konchalovsky. The album section includes works, executed in different genres (landscapes, portraits and still-lifes) showing the depth and variety of his oeuvre. Andrei Konchalovsky's article, which is a personal address of a grandson to a grandfather, precedes the album section. In the articles, Russian and foreign experts research the interaction between Petr Konchalovsky's oeuvre and the world art tendencies of the late 19th early 20th centuries: from Cézannism to Fauvism, Primitivism, main trends of Russian Avant-garde. They analyse the thematic variety of his works as well as periods of the artist's interest in nature and subject, works and techniques of old masters: Rembrandt, Titian. The book includes chronicle of Petr Konchalovsky's life and work, excerpts from his memoirs and reminiscences of contemporaries.--Publisher's website.
