It so happened that born in the suburbs, having been trained in the Leningrad and Kalinin Suvorov, Vladimir Kudryashov their Mature years spent in Siberia. To assume it happened by accident, or cause some good reasons can be infinitely long. One thing is clear. Your creative power and energy he gave Siberia, the taiga, the rivers, lost cities and forest villages. Gave without end. But, having got the whole of Siberia still generous and joy, and difficulty, was Tomsk — ancient Siberian city of merchants, in their part similar to the Russian tale — carved and "well decorated". But at the same time — a strict University center, nervous and looking to the future. This city Mr. So he remained in his works, which harmoniously combines tradition and innovation.
Travel along the river and its tributaries Kasugano, the Chulym, and many others — introduced to Vladimir with the indigenous people of Siberia. Proto-Khanty, Selkups, aurota, though the procedure from the time of Ermak Russified, has retained the closeness to nature and all the mystique of their ancient culture stretching back to the already quite gray. The greatness of this river and the marshy taiga of the region manifested in the works of Vladimir original — not oppressive communities of river cliffs and not sadasivuni emptiness of the "green sea of taiga", and in the small. Berries, pine nuts and cones, fish, bath... Seems to be simple and accessible to all joy. Yet to understand them fully, one must comprehend the philosophy of unhurried calm of indigenous Siberians.

This Vladimir really helped taiga village Vertices located in the North of the Tomsk region. High steep Bank of the Ob, and it will fly up silver from the time of wooden stairs. This is Vertices, translated from Selkup — "Red Star". Here was the home of creativity that was often visited by the artist. Summer, autumn, winter, Hiking far into the forest, meeting people, fishing, hunting, mushrooms... Like the rest. But for Vladimir, it was also a period of intense internal work, which brought a natural result of instantaneous recognition of the Siberian realities in the prints combined with a high degree of generalization. This is both Vertices, and Siberia and the whole Russia. Vladimir Kudryashov has done a lot. And who knows what heights he could have achieved than would enrich the Siberian graphics. A daring and somewhat nervous style of his early work was subsequently replaced by what can be called "quiet strength" — what it really reminded Ob of Vertices. But the sudden death of the artist on 60-m to year of life has put an end to it.
