«I am not the first. You are not the last. The path is well trodden. We make footsteps in each others traces.»
Shavkat. A.
Great Wanderer
Wandering around inter-continental landscape between the Puskin museum and the Hermitage, “hermitTakvash” (celebrated artist Shavkat A.) without any purpose drop in on the way at the wooden town house built at the beginning of 19 c. Here, in this miraculously preserved house, dwells “most famous from all obscure galleries”. Impossible to figure out Shazina Gallery from contemporary art catalogue. But “Hermit have chosen long ago going along the stars, not pavement, which leads nowhere.
Cordial gallery hostess proved to be “incredibly compliant”. She knows - talent is a measure of time. It leaves the marks. It’s feelings set a diagnosis for a society. Thus she called off the trip for presentation to Paris. “Wanting dispose properly flooding feelings” she set off to arrange Shavkat A.’s exhibition.
Precisely this agreeable place, almost like in fiery- tale, will house Shavkat A’s paintings from 6 to30 July.
Tarkovsky and Antonioni admired the paintings of «Great Wanderer», as precious stone, full of life vibrancy.
They knew “old patterns and tracery of tapestry will find their admirer.
(Quotations are from Shavkat A.’s book «Unicorn»)
In haste to add to your delight! Opening 6july 18.00 to late evening.
Like any true art, Shavkat Abdusalamov’s paintings have an effect on moods and feelings of spectator. He exploits subtle, sensual painting techniques as successfully as amazing palette of rich but muffled colours. Figurative elements are as explicit and recognisable as not distinct and extraordinary. All these add another incomprehensible dimension to his paintings, where you can take courage to get rid of all your anxiety and than joy will reign in your soul.
Will be glad to see You!
Gallery is open Tuesday – Sunday from 14:00 till 20:00 Closed Monday Moscow, 5 Maliy Vlasievskiy pereulok Tel.: 749 55 09 83 36
