Denis Egelsky, 1963

Timur Novikov's students are notable for devotion in precepts of the teacher. So Egelsky listened, listened … and became the professor in New Academy. Strange, but Egelsky’s works not in style of New Academy at all which worked basically with cloth, texture, sign, but with light hardly. Here he is the first.

His works are airy and bright. Antithetic to the author.Essence of Denis Egelsky’s works is, in his opinion, that " they are about death, so and about a life " though are devoted to five elements: fire, water, earth, air and ether. And from it such sparkling effect which combines works.

And also Denis comes of a family of ballet dancer.Thanks, St. Petersburg! Only in such city could be born mad professor – neo-academist - the ballet dancer.
