Autobiographical notes

For me, sculpture, above all, the method of plastic embodiment of spiritual energy.

Criticism

Creativity Sergei Shcherbakov very modern in form, and the internal content. Sergei translates philosophical categories into the language of sculpture. "Fear," "Humility," "Meditation" - these are the names of his easel paintings. Generalized form, compact volume, conciseness artistic language, in combination with the underlined expression, emotional stress felt in every work, define the personality of creativity of Sergei Shcherbakov.
. All mounted sculptor lack signs of chamber music
. They would rather monumental, despite the small size, and easily to mental increase in the space. Talent muralist has clearly declared itself in the works of Sergei - his work took prizes in competitions for the design of the monument "Artisans siege of Leningrad" and "Victims of Afghanistan". Now Sergei makes monumental sculpture "Akhtuba" to install it in front of the hotel.
Sergei Shcherbakov constantly improves its artistic language on the way to an increasingly concentrated and generalized expression of the idea of plastic. His ebonite "figures" simply fascinate the integrity, smooth transition of plastics in space and back.
. Currently, the sculptor is busy creating a large "Crucifixion" on the order of the Orthodox Church.
. His works enjoy an excellent reputation among collectors
