Искусство РСФСР - Лидия Ильинична Акимова
Black-and-white book illustrations extend to all kinds of literature — Russian and world classics, Soviet multinational literature, epic and popular science literature; a large group of illustrators also work for literary periodicals. Book illustrators in Moscow and Leningrad are known for their high standards of book design and illustration, and their view of the book as an integral artistic whole. V.Favorsky continued to work in Moscow to the very end of his life. A. Goncharov, S.Pozharsky, S.Telingater, I. Fomina, E.Burgunker, D.Bisti, and B. Markevich who concentrated mainly on lino- and woodcuts have greatly contributed to book design and illustration. Whole series of book illustrations of great interest have been executed by D.Shmarinov, N. Kuzmin, B.Prorokov, Ye. Kibrik, V.Goriayev, V. Minayev, etc. Among Leningrad artists we should mention V.Konashevich, A. Pakhomov, G.Yepifanov, Ye.Charushin, and Yu. Vasnetsov. The Leningrad school of graphic art has always been famous for children’s books. A pioneer in this field, V. Lebedev developed in a truly creative way the principles of design and illustration of books for the youngest children. He and his pupils have collaborated to good effect with well-known Soviet writers and poets. Lebedev and his pupils have illustrated books by S. Marshak and K. Chukovsky, which have become classics in their own field and attained world fame. These books are constantly being reprinted, they do not lose their aesthetic value as years go by, and they enjoy popularity with every new generation of the readers. Soviet book illustration has achieved international recognition, and many publications have been awarded prizes of various kinds at international competitions.
The great family of Russian artists is increasing year by year. In all regional centres of the republic there are local creative branches of the Artists’ Union of the RSFSR. All kinds of art are developing everywhere. The artists of Russia are with honour preserving and enriching the traditions which had been formed during the over fifty years’ existence of the Soviet state. An active and sincere response to the events in the public life of the country at every stage of its history, the assertion of the lofty human ideals of communist society have always been and remain the most characteristic features of Russian art. Lofty civic feelings, a sense of responsibility, the perfection of professional skill and respect for the great traditions of the past in Russian and world art have always been the basis for the creative endeavours of Soviet artists. These fundamental qualities are relayed from one generation of artists to another.
