    • ECHEISTOV, experimental impression of Stalin, 1940
      May. 05, 2018

      ECHEISTOV, experimental impression of Stalin, 1940

      Est: $300 - $500

      ECHEISTOV GEORGIY ALEKSANDROVICH (RUSSIAN 1897-1946), rare experimental impression, [ Joseph Stalin], [1940], woodcut on Japanese paper, full sheet measuring 25 x 20 cm (9 13/16 x 7 7/8 in.), plate mark 21.5 x 17.5 cm (8 7/16 x 6 7/8 in.), initialed in plate lower right and signed G. Echeistov in pencil LOT NOTES Echeistov was a well-known Russian (Soviet) graphic artist and book illustrator born in Moscow in 1897. Before entering VKhUTEMAS in 1918 to study under Boris Grigoriev and later Favorsky, Echeistov studied woodcarving at the Stroganov Moscow State University of Arts and Industry. As a student, Echeistov became interested in book design and would continue to work in the industry until his death (although he began working as an illustrator much later). In the 1920s Echeistov also moves from linocuts to engravings, which would become a staple of his oeuvre. During the late 1930s Echeistov often works for the Academia publishing house, illustrating, for example, several books of verses by Heinrich Heine (1934-1936) and Aeschylus` tragedies (1936-1937). In 1940, Echeistov collaborates with Favorsky on illustrating Dzhangar, a book of Kalmyk folklore (Goslitizdat, 1940). Simultaneously, Echeistov creates several works using photomontage and constructivism, often on the theme of industrialism. In 1931, he exhibited in Paris with Klutsis, Lissitzky, Popova, Rodchenko, and Stepanova; and in 1932 in Leningrad with Kliun, Malevich, Tatlin, Filonov, et al. In 1939-1940, Echeistov creates a series of Crimean, Kalmyk, and Kabardino-Balkar landscapes. During World War II, Echeistov worked for some time in Chuvashia. Like many artists, he traveled to the front lines to record the events of the war. Echeistov`s works are held in the collections of the State Tretyakov Gallery, the State Museum of Art of I.V. Savitskiy, and the Chuvash State Arts Museum, among others. PROVENANCE INFORMATION This lot comes from the collection of Viktor Kholodkov (1948-2015), who fulfilled his passion for books, avant-garde design and paper memorabilia by devoting his life to collecting and dealing of prominent works of Russian graphic art of the first half of the 20th century. The dedicated collector acquired a multitude of books and artworks throughout decades, meticulously labeling and archiving every single item. Many came directly from the most preeminent artists of the time, as well as from their families and estates. He also possessed a vast number of drawings from the famous collection of another avant-garde enthusiast, Nikolai Khardzhiev. After leaving the USSR in 1989 and settling in California, Viktor continued his work as a Soviet art dealer and critic, actively publishing various articles and contributing to several major Russian avant-garde exhibitions across the U.S., such as the 1991 Russia Under Fire in the 40s on the West Coast and the 1992 Guggenheim exhibition The Great Utopia: The Russian and Soviet Avant-Garde. Kholodkov also contributed to the archives of the biggest American institutions. His sophisticated selection of over 2000 Russian sheet music covers was acquired by The Library of Congress, and an extensive amount of material related to VKhUTEMAS is now at the J. Paul Getty Museum.
