The triptych “Fear and Despair in the Third Empire” by Vitaly Volovich
View through CrossRef
The article is devoted to the work of Vitaly Volovich, graphic artist, author of several large cycles of illustrations for classical works: “Heather Honey” by R. Stevenson; Shakespeare's Othello and Richard III; series “Circus”, “Workshop”, etc. The purpose of the article is to reveal the peculiarities of the artist's creative method on the example of analysis and interpretation of the triptych “Fear and Despair in the Third Empire”. This goal required an integrated methodological approach to the analysis of the artist's work, combining a philosophical, art analysis with elements of literary criticism. As a result of the study, the following conclusions were obtained. First, V.M. Volovich gravitated towards deep generalizations, strove, using the language of symbols and allegories, to find a reflection of the contemporary problems that worried him. Secondly, the triptych “Fear and Despair in the Third Empire” marks a turning point in the artist's work, and is an artistic and philosophical reflection on the drama of B. Brecht. Third, the example of this work shows that the artist does not become an illustrator of a literary text, but, having understood the writer's intention, turns to his central idea and it is for it that he creates his own plastic and symbolic-metaphorical language.
Статья посвящена творчеству В.М. Воловича, графика, автора нескольких крупных циклов иллюстраций к классическим произведениям: «Вересковый мед» Р. Стивенсона; «Отелло» и «Ричард III» Шекспира; серий «Цирк», «Мастерская» и др. Цель статьи — раскрыть особенности творческого метода художника на примере анализа и интерпретации триптиха «Страх и отчаяние в Третьей империи». Данная цель потребовала комплексного методологического подхода к анализу творчества художника, сочетающего философский, искусствоведческий анализ с элементами литературоведческого. В результате исследования получены следующие выводы. Во-первых, В.М. Волович тяготел к глубоким обобщениям, стремился, используя язык символов и аллегорий, найти отражение современных, волнующих его проблем. Во-вторых, триптих «Страх и отчаяние в Третьей империи» знаменует поворотный момент в творчестве художника и представляет собой художественно-философскую рефлексию над драмой Б. Брехта. В-третьих, на примере данного произведения видно, что художник становится не иллюстратором литературного текста, а, поняв замысел писателя, обращается к центральной его идее и именно для нее создает свой пластический и символико-метафорический язык.
