Vladimirovna Gavrichkova

She received her art education at the Moscow Academic Art School in memory of 1905 (1985-1989), the decorative and design department.
Also, on the basis of the school, refresher courses for teachers-artists were completed.
The diploma project was conceived in 1985 for the sixtieth anniversary of the school. Preparations for the anniversary began long before the celebration, and the works of students of art studios and art schools passed the strict selection of the art council of the school. Thus, creative work made it possible to study at the budgetary department of the school, in the direction: decorative and design business and industrial graphics. Later, the works were exhibited at stands called "Six Glorious Decades of the Moscow Art School in 1905". Course and diploma projects were carried out on a real basis, and served to decorate the historical part of this essay, as well as the exposition. The main activity was the production of papier-mâché mosaic sheets using French technology, using modern and accessible artistic techniques. Decorative and spatial components were made for the organization of pedestrian zones, as well as compositions that were decisive for the pictorial structure of holidays, the execution of wall paintings, decorative curtains, panels and other elements. In the thesis "The Tree of Knowledge" (4X5 meters), papier-mâché technologies were used as props. The complexity of the division of the mosaic material was solved with the help of surgical medical equipment used in traumatology. This work has taken its rightful place among the bright variety of arts and crafts. In the same year, an agreement was signed for cooperation with the Academy of Arts from Maastricht (Holland). All student works were the only manifestation of the realistic art school. Thus, we found interested buyers of works from Belgium and England. Papier-mâché technologies and the manufacture of theatrical props, boxes, dummies, toys, furniture that are not so easy to distinguish from "real" ones, the basis for traditional lacquer miniatures in Fedoskin, Palekh, Kholuy, Mstera - all this was the activity of a craft studio, which was opened in 1993. In 2007, the project # BalkanskyKlub ARTEating Balkan artists appeared, and the direction of the children's creative studio association "Children's Art Studio Fantasy Workshop" for native speakers of the Serbo-Croatian language appeared. The studio also spent several creative seasons in a cultural institution in Moscow, the Cultural Center "Sovremennik" Culture Club. In 2019, the direction of jewelry business appeared. All works are part of the #Gavrich collection and are made in collaboration with artisan workshops in Argentina and Uruguay from natural stones, the basis of which is #rhodochrosite (Province of de Velha Catamarca). All projects are in constant search of new creative expressions. I also actively cooperate with art associations and art schools in Serbia (Belgrade, Novi Sad, Nis, Sabac).
