Talking about himself, Vladimir Arkhangelsky says that he is not a modern artist. The painter creates not conceptual, but emotional art.
Biography
The future artist was born in 1971 in Chelyabinsk. He received secondary school education, then entered the Architecture and Art Academy of the city of Yekaterinburg. In 1995, the young man left here as a certified specialist, and after 5 years he opened his own studio in this city. And in 2004, the painter organized his own creative workshop in Moscow.
Vladimir Arkhangelsky is not only an artist, but also an interior designer, decorator.
Career
The artist’s first solo exhibition was held in Yekaterinburg at the Museum of Fine Arts. That was in 2001. Then annually, until 2004, the artist is exhibited in this city, and then in Moscow. After this, a four-year break followed, when the next exhibition of Vladimir Arkhangelsky took place in the capital.
Creation
The best thing about the artist is his paintings. Vladimir Arkhangelsky prefers not to mention what his personal life is, whether he has a wife, whether he is a happy husband. But then about the creative biography he is ready to talk endlessly. In October 2019, in the restaurant halls of the assembly, which are located in the "President Hotel", a private display of the works of Arkhangelsky took place.
Remembering this event, the artist said that the works that he had been creating for 10 years were presented. Vladimir wrote them all from nature.
Arkhangelsky said that he prefers to use already familiar people as models. He believes that he can better convey the inner world of a person with whom he has been communicating for a long time. Therefore, it turns out to create the desired image on the canvas.
When they offer custom-made works, he also first gets acquainted with this person in order to study him, to fall in love with some features of a specific personality, and then reproduce them on canvas. As for the posture, sometimes it arises immediately, but it happens that the artist is looking for a possible position of a sitter or model for a long time.
