. Criticism
.
. During the postulated bezavtorstva when travesty, irony and all types of ernichestvo entice and excite much more than an open statement of the artist, the art of Natalia Turnova perceived very risky
. Apologists still thriving conceptualism not fail to accuse her of old-fashioned, "scholars" - a pop-art tradition, "radicals" - a spectacular irrelevance of stable preferences. Yet together these reproaches coalesce into a single unconditional plus sign - evidence of a strong authorial position, preferring to plastic and professionalism izoshrennym somersault noticeably weary of postmodernism.
. Among the general nevnyatitsy and procedure bored artistic provocations Turnova steadfastly chooses painting, acting in the film, as in the picture - entirely on his own behalf
. There was no coquetry, the language of her works are very open, energetic and not like a woman pushy (which always gives rise to the conjugation of its unusual name from Russia feminist issues). Living vnetusovochno and quiet, and the work challenging and comprehensive, it has always gravitated to the series and large format. Another wave of Post-perestroika in the late 80's for the girl with a strong oblique ridge rose huge and sharp political portraits - portrait of the Soviet monster legends, . touted Turnova easily and boldly, . flowery and almost naively, . as if she wrote them their fate - a purely personal troubles, . incarnated in the lyrics not, . in politics, . or rather in the history, . merged with the biography of his own soul.,
. So - like children of the TurnovskцҐ family - a succession of peoples "Kurchatov" and "Lenin, playing chess," "Krupskaya" and "Tolstoy and Wells, the characters of the Civil War, and later - Afghans, Corazon Aquino, and God knows who else.
. Today - a series of "crime" as an exciting storyline Stout and Chase, but, alas, and as reality itself, which eliminates all sorts of associations and cultural allusions to the level of immediate overwhelming criminality.
. Exhibition - how beautifully raskadrirovanny thriller
. The plot, character, dynamics of action and essential evidence - all meet the requirements of the mass of the genre, and the power of beautiful flesh attached sensations literal spectacle and, most importantly, the artistic significance. Genre works, does not remain indifferent, and you, as happened in the subway shoulder neighbor unwittingly drawn into a strange excitement, accidentally struck on the game you. However, life makes the game too obvious tangibility, and intrigue that was invented in the footsteps of bestselling Turnovo, every day more and more developing into a universal metaphor of life around us.
