#0, VICTOR CRAVTSEVICH - sculptor of new generation
Posted by thoserussians.com (Guest) on 14-Feb-01 at 01:00 AM
Victor Cravtsevich is a distinctive and original man who has
realised his creative aspirations in sculpture, which is not only
most complex and peculiar kind of art but also extremely laborious
and expensive one as well. This sculptor belongs to a new
generation of masters who are free from cliches and pompous
depiction of life, the latter being so peculiar to the
Soviet-period sculpture. Life as it is becomes the matter of his work...

The ancient classic aspired the sculptor to create an ideal of
beauty and the nude, a woman's body. A vivid example of such a
work is the 'Grace'.

The nude stands relaxed, harmonized with the entire world.
The sculpture reminds an ancient statue. Plastic of the woman's
body is still and well looked upon, the polished bronze turns
smoothly into elastic flesh, full of life, which imbibes sun,
sea water splashes, air. The precise clearness, felinity and
flow of the silhouette outlines, perpetual fluidity of round
volumes and shapes - all these plastic dynamic runs in a free,
deep breath rhythm.
