ARTUR KIRILLOV




 
This is the only page of the site written not by Artur Kirillov.
My name is Vlad Zavadskiy,
An old friend and combining it Artur’s agent. He asked me to write this page. Probably I don’t have the literary style, peculiar to my friend, but I can tell a lot about him.
Artur is mystery man! Fifteen years ago I was sure I am a friend to Russian Van Gogue, but suddenly he stopped drawing pictures. In one day gathered all materials and freed the workshop. All who knew him were at a loss, as he was engaged in art all his life.
We were sure that six months - a year late he will return to painting. Fifteen years left. In my memory he has changed more than ten occupations for this period. In some of them he succeeded a lot. He was a clown, businessman, producer, leaded trainings of creativity – so many but not a single work of art for all the time.
Maybe he had nothing to say… or there was no need…

And a day came when he told me that he leaves everything and returns to drawing, and he’ll do it by sand. Sand, can you see, talks to him and he feels how to express it’s nature. I don’t know what he meant.

I know another, if this guy believes in something – that’s it! Step aside! He will come up to end doesn’t matter what it cost! That’s why to Artur’s request to be his agent I said “yes”.
It always surprised me with what a carefulness Artur comes to everything he does. Sometimes it becomes frightful for him. And now as well he sharpens a hand movement, a line or outline on sand table for five hundred times though I can’t see any difference between a hundredth and a hundred first variant.
Artur is absolutely fair in work. I don’t know rarity it or not. But I am pleased to realize that our studio makes real works of art.
There are two types of artists: first show out themselves in their works, somebody like such works, others don’t. Other artists are able to dispose to stream coming from above and through the works share with us beauty, bare the essence of things. This art is enjoyed by everyone. I am glad that Artur belongs to the second type.
And more Artur is a big admirer of sand as material. After he began working he made questionable decision – to make with sand only what is not possible to do by other means. If you can draw something by paints and it will be better, there is no need to make sand do it worse. Now I see that he is right. And in gratitude sand lets out his secrets, and our studio’s works become more impressive.

What Artur can do?
Everything mentioned in the part “What For?” if you apply to us in advance.
How much does it cost?
Expensive! But the performances we do make me feel sincere pride!
