The exposition consists of works by a designer, painter, multimedia artist, Honored Artist of Russia, academician of the Russian Academy of Arts, vice president and member of Presidium of the Russian Academy of Arts Konstantin Vasilyevich Khudyakov, his wife, artist and musician Marina Leonidovna Khudyakova, as well as author's art dolls created by their daughter , a member of the Association of puppeteers, academician of the Russian Academy of Arts Alexandra Khudyakova.
After the opening ceremony, a lecture by Konstantin Khudyakov and a master class by Alexandra Khudyakova will take place. Admission to events is free.
Konstantin and Marina Khudyakovs studied architecture at the Moscow Architectural Institute under the guidance of surviving constructivist professors, studied painting and graphics from realists, surrealists and futurists, “breathed the air of architectural avant-garde” of the famous hostel, the Nikolaev House of the Commune, were innovative design artists of many expositions of major historical historical museums, including Lenin museums in the country and abroad.
The desire to perfect their work, close attention to details and admiring them, obviously, along with a look at the architect’s world and a desire for the latest technology, artists have been brought to use computer capabilities in art. In the late 90s, they completely switched to digital technologies in their work as applied to the visual arts.
Alexandra Khudyakova studied the craft of the artist and world art in all their diversity and complexity, first of all from her parents and, of course, at the Krasnopresnesnensky art school, and then at the design department of Moscow State Art and Industrial University named after S.G. Stroganov, who, like MARHI, was formed from the legendary VKHUTEMAS. Unusual dolls for everyone at the university became the topic of her graduation project, and later on, a real vocation.
Alexandra Khudyakova does not undertake to characterize the style in which she works. “The art of an author's doll is a synthetic art,” she notes, “not only in terms of combining various materials, techniques, crafts, but also in a peculiar game with styles. Everything that is capable of realizing the same image conceived by the artist is used without regard to generally accepted framework and rules. ” Renaissance, East, Art Deco - a bizarre mixture of associations, the author’s imagination gives rise to fabulous images of her works. The exhibition will feature several dozen of her works.
