Brief Excerpts of Commentary: |
| "And, his own,
distinctively Constructivist style has evolved over the past 20 years..
Paintings from the early 1980s are most expressionist in execution.
Colors are mainly primaries, badly, if never indiscriminately, rendered.
Largish stretches of roiling, rippling brushwork show the parkland
almost breathing fire, no matter how idyllic the setting."

| "Dream-like art in its
effect, but unlike a dream in the severity of the rules of the total
artist: I think of his art as an ordered phantasmagoria.
Surrounded by Anatoly's art, I have always seemed to hear the distant
music of one great symphonic composition."

he is not. He is not a self-indulgent natural genius whose every
daub transcends criticism. He is not trendy. He is not Pop,
nor anything like it; he is not a man of the 90s, in the usual sense."

"Mr. Krynsky
relentlessly continues artistic search and experimentation, creating
abstract works, delving into Suprematism, Cubo-Futurism and
Expressionism.
In his series 'The Man and the City' created in Moscow, Mr.
Krynsky interprets a person as part of a mechanism, stressing the
tragedy of human existence in a world of technological progress."

"Anatoly Krynsky again
demonstrates that art is the kingdom of freedom that must discipline
itself in order not to degenerate into anarchy, because the “aesthetic
message” is not the tumultuous reflection of a more or less fascinating
situation but the concrete signification of the individual who wants to
dialogue poetically with others."

"The talent
and genius of Mr. Krynsky is rooted in nearly half a century of total
dedication of his endeavor in creative art. A disciple of the noted
Boris Kosarev and Vasily Ermilov and inspired by his great countryman
Alexander Archipenko, who like him chose America as a new home." continue

"Mr. Krynsky was
a victim of the 1976 purge which saw up to 100 of the brightest Soviet
artistic lights expelled. He had applied for an exit visa
and was promptly fired from his job. His unemployment lasted six
months until he was eventually allowed to leave. About forty
dissident Soviet artists took up residence in New York; another thirty
now live in Paris."
