Viktor Danilov, "aborigine" is well known now Ozerkovskaya-Shuvalovsky group - an artist with a completely distinctive and a direct view of the world, full of humor, irony and depth.
Danilov, with utmost clarity expresses itself in different genres. With a wide range of topics and methods of their realization, he is working with the same professionalism in painting, drawing, sculpture, objects, installations.
Impressions, the facts of life, seen the scene are synthesized in plastically vivid artistic images. This
Danilov dreams - safely, easily, enthusiastically. His images are natural in its suddenness and modern. But his understanding of modernity is not a transfer of the external will, but thrills. Experiences of the author looking for a modern art form, modern means of artistic expression. Hence the usual shift of emphasis, dynamic, sometimes - showiness visual language vitality in the organization of space in the construction of tracks. Penetrating relation to texture qualities of the material helps him to convey their deeper feelings, to make them compelling to the viewer's emotional state was found to sharpen the image.
