Ethnographic expeditions as a creative method in the Krasnoyarsk region XX century fine art
Abstract
In this article, the object of attention is an ethnographic expedition, which is defined by the author as a special creative method of artists of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. On the example of individual works by D.I. Karatanov, A.P. Lekachenko, V.I. Meshkova, A.A. Dovnar, V.F. Kapelko, the original approach of Krasnoyarsk painters to the image of the north is considered. A unique alloy of documentary drawing and fiction became the basis for the emergence of new possibilities for depicting the region and allowed the development of a regional art school. The work concludes that the basis of the analyzed creative method is not only the accurate transmission of ethnographic characteristics, but also the artist's personal attitude to the characters represented in the space of the artistic image. It is the author's personal experience and his subjective view that become key factors in identifying the specifics of the ethnographic expedition as the basis of regional art.
