Where Lenin lived and worked Automatic translate

Who does not dream to see with his own eyes the house where Vladimir Ilyich Lenin was born, the school desk, which he was sitting at, the landscapes that he admired, to visit where young Ulyanov replenished his knowledge, husbands, prepared the coming of the Great October Revolution! Many young artists strive not only to see, but also to capture memorable Leninist places sacred for every Soviet person. Every year, in the circles and fine art studios, art schools, collections of drawings created where V.I. Lenin lived and worked are replenished.

Today about the work of two groups of young artists tell their leaders.

Artem Mikhailovich POPOV, head of the art studio of the House of Komsomolets and schoolchildren in the Dzerzhinsky district of Moscow

The guys of our studio make exciting trips around the country every summer. But the most interesting was a trip to the homeland of Lenin - to the city of Ulyanovsk.

It was decided to go during the spring break. Preparations for the campaign took place in several directions: the guys studied the biography of Vladimir Ilyich, collected reproductions of paintings and drawings, watched movies, plays, visited the Central Museum of V.I. Lenin, got acquainted with materials on the history of Simbirsk.

We studied the route in detail. Correspondence was organized with schools and museums in Ulyanovsk. Prepared stocks of paper, paints, brushes. We took into account that you will have to draw and write with quickly drying materials - others are uncomfortable in traveling conditions. We traveled all the car dealerships in Moscow, picked up suitable vehicles for the task.

Preparing for the trip, the guys performed special tasks: they drew the interiors of rooms from different points of view, individual objects and groups of objects, streets in perspective. Exercised in sketches, sketches. A general review of these works was regularly arranged, and former pupils of the studio were also invited to discuss them.

Finally, the preparation for the trip is over. At the general meeting, fifteen lucky were named. Everyone’s candidacy was discussed taking into account the following requirements: he should study only at “5” and “4”, be distinguished by exemplary behavior, conduct community service and, of course, be able to draw and write.

… In Ulyanovsk, we were met by the pioneers of the school in which we were supposed to settle. Without wasting time, went to get acquainted with the city. We visited the "Crown", steeper than the Volga, a favorite place for walks of young Lenin; on Ulyanovs Street, where house number 15 stands, in the wing of which Vladimir Ilyich was born; in the House - Museum of V.I. Lenin on Moskovskaya Street. In reverential silence they examined Volodya Ulyanov’s room.

We visited the school where Lenin studied, saw his desk. On the third day, the group broke into links. One of the students wrote in a diary: “Our link was to draw views from the slope and the old streets of Ulyanovsk. The weather, as luck would have it, is cloudy and cold. For a long time I could not find a composition for work: either a strong wind blows off the hill, then you make a sketch, but it is uninteresting.

Eugene Ivanov somehow deftly attached himself to a tree and works with gouache paints. Great job. Even the steam is coming. This Zhenya uses warm water from a thermos to dilute the paint… In the evening there was a view of all our works. They put the letter F on the best, which means they will go to the fund. They took one job from me. ”

It is difficult to draw in the House - Museum - there are too many visitors. Then the directorate allowed young artists to come long before the opening. Many in the morning did short sketches from various places. On some, proportions were fixed, on others - various details. It’s difficult to draw a house - museum on the street: there are a lot of people, and the weather is inclement. Then the guys on one sheet depicted the general view of the building, trying to convey its contours and perspective reductions as accurately as possible, while only plotting the places of windows and individual details. Other sheets carefully depicted various details. On the third - they were looking for color relationships. Then, when working on the composition, all these preliminary sketches were combined.

“We were so drawn into the rhythm of work that we simply could not imagine a different life,” the guys recall about a trip to Ulyanovsk. The result of the trip was a reporting exhibition.

Anatoly Ivanovich CHEKHLOV, director of the Shushenskaya children’s art school. The village of Shushenskoye, Krasnoyarsk Territory

Our school is thirteen years old. More than a hundred boys and girls study in it. This is one of the first children’s art schools in the RSFSR, opened in the village. Students’ works were exhibited in various cities of the Soviet Union and abroad. Sixteen works dedicated to Leninist places, the first graduates of the school presented to the Shushensky folk art gallery.

Many of her pupils study at art schools and institutes, work in workshops and at a souvenir factory, and Nadia Mylnikova and Tolya Tupolev returned to school as teachers.

Not everyone, of course, becomes painters, graphic artists, sculptors.

Once a young border guard officer entered the school. Smiles. I looked closely.

Sasha Dadorin! How so? I thought you would be an artist.

He became a political officer, the border guard laughed and explained: I came on vacation. I went here to find out - how are you? I also organized an art studio at the outpost…

The works of many children are dedicated to Shushensky. Here are signs of new buildings, and flocks of children hurrying to school, and the first snow…

Young artists can be found everywhere. At a hut on Lake Perovo, Peschanaya and Zhuravnaya Gorky, where Lenin once worked and rested, behind a village where the talkative river Shush runs, on the ice of which Vladimir Ilyich skated with children.

Zhenya Sofrygin loves to draw old and new Shushenskoye. Ancient houses with gray roofs and wicker fences recede beyond the boundaries of the village. As if the ships are multi-storey buildings with large windows and television antennas. A city is being built - a monument to Ilyich. And here is another work by Toli Prokopenko "Shushenskoye today." This is our day. We see straight asphalt streets along which cars of all colors and brands rush. Decorative colors, a clear rhythm convey modernity, movement.

Boys and girls can look around in a special way: attentively and carefully, for a long time and vigilantly. They are proud that they live and study in the region associated with the biography of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin.
