Konashevich, to the graphic tradition of the “World of Art”. The influence of the masters of this circle was particularly evident in the early work of Konashevich (1917-1922). However, even in this period, the artist was not the epigone of the luminaries, he used the discoveries of his older comrades to solve problems that lay outside the circle of their interests, he was looking for his own style. The article compares the experiences of the novice illustrator with the works of the masters of the famous association, analyzes their statements about the works of a younger colleague, as well as Konashevich's opinions about the aesthetics of the “World of Art” and about his own creative path.","PeriodicalId":37537,"journal":{"name":"Academia (Greece)","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70465760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Paint, canvas, primers, paper, brush stroke techniques – all of those components played a particular role in the creation of the figurative-formative system. The members of “Blue Rose” were inspired by creative genius of V.E. Borisov-Musatov and M.A. Vrubel as well as traditions of the Old Russian icon painting. The latter found its new beginning at the turn of the century, in the era of Symbolism. Icon as an example of the union between material matter and spiritual concepts significantly influenced the core ideas in the art of symbolism. The “Blue Rose” followed the path of combining traditions and innovation, further affecting the viewer’s perception of the art work by specific organization of its material structure. Sacralization and spiritualization of materialistic principles of art are closely related to the problem of the symbol, in which contradictions between materialistic and spiritual as well as worldly and divine are resolved.","PeriodicalId":37537,"journal":{"name":"Academia (Greece)","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70466894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The art objects (photographed by the author in 2002 and 2021) show the artist's transition from the poetics of ghostly visions to clear and contrasting forms typical for Avant-Garde art. The mosaics, ceramics and frescoes of the estate reveal the experience in creating cyclic, closed composition specific for Kuznetsov’s paintings and graphic works. However, in the dialogue with the garden and the mountain landscape new, more energetic variations of the previous themes arise. In assessing Kuznetsov's artistic search the poetic characteristics of his work given by art historian A.M.
