The jubilee exhibition, dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the birth of Sergey Parajanov and organized by the V. I. Dahl State Museum of the History of Russian Literature in cooperation with the State Central Film Museum, aims to showcase the life and works of this iconic Soviet-era filmmaker. The exhibition's curators have sought to present the diverse and multi-faceted artistic achievements of Parajanov, who was a Renaissance-scale figure who fearlessly transcended the boundaries of genres, movements, and even art forms.
Sergey Parajanov is a significant figure in the history of both Russian and world cinema. His work has influenced the development of cinema not only in Russia but also internationally. Parajanov's films have had a significant impact on the language of cinema, particularly in the former Soviet Union, where "poetic cinema" emerged under his influence.
Parajanov's artistic work is inseparable from his personal life and creative process. His films are a reflection of his unique vision and approach to filmmaking, which he applied to every aspect of his work, from the choice of subject matter to the use of camera techniques and editing.
As an artist, Parajanov created numerous paintings, drawings, collages, assemblies, mosaics, installations, and sculptures. He found inspiration in everything around him, including everyday life, his friends, and his own home environment. This approach to art made him a unique and influential figure in the art world.
