ARISTARKH VASILEVICH LENTULOV (Russian, 1882-1943) Cubist Cityscape Oil on canvas 37-1/4 x 50-1/2 inches (94.6 x 128.3 cm) The son of a priest, Lentulov was one of the founders of the Russian avant-garde group the Jack of Diamonds. Lentulov attended several Russian art schools before moving to Paris in 1910 in order to train at Le Fauconnier and La Palette Academy. Both of these academies were well patronized by Russian artists of the avant-garde. It was during this time in Paris that Lentulov was exposed to the working theories of Fauvism and Cubism by such masters as Metzinger and Léger. After returning to Moscow, Lentulov exhibited with the Jack of Diamonds group and pioneered what would be known as Russian Futurism. This cityscape blends the distilation of form central to Cubism with the extreme palette of the Fauves, resulting in a style that is characteristically Lentulov's own. , , " ". , 1910 « Fauconnier» «La Palette». -. , , , , . , " ". , . , , , . .
