    • SHISHLOVSKY, Leningrad, 1950
      Jan. 27, 2018

      SHISHLOVSKY, Leningrad, 1950

      Est: $300 - $500

      SHISHLOVSKY NIKOLAY ALEKSANDROVICH (RUSSIAN 1907-1984), Leningrad, 1950, pencil on paper, 30 x 24 cm (11 3/4 x 9 3/8 in.), monogrammed and dated lower right on front, certified on verso LOT NOTES Shishlovsky was a well-known Russian (Soviet) graphic artist, book illustrator, and poster designer. After graduating from the Saratov School of Art, he moved to Moscow in 1932, where he worked primarily as a book illustrator for the "Khudozhestvennaya literatura" publishing house. He also experimented with ceramics, tapestries, and fine art. 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.
