"TO DEPICT ONE GOOD PAINTING IS VERY DIFFICULT. GOD WILLING TO PAINT SEVERAL GOOD ONES FOR THE WHOLE LIFE. IT DISTRACTS FROM LIFE. MOREOVER, PAINTING TODAY IS LIKE A SYMPHONY MUSIC: A PERSON UNDERSTANDS IT WHEN REACHES A CERTAIN AGE."
Batynkov is a painter, graphic artist, takes up photography and collage. K.Batynkov is an author of several dozen of exhibitions, received various awards in the field of fine arts. In 1980s–the early 1990s, Konstantin Batynkov started forming his unique style. First, he began experimenting with decorative forms, then took up collage. Alexander Labas, Soviet artist and representative of Russian avant-guard of the 1929s-1930s, was Batynkov’s idol. Later in his artistic career the main motives of works are becoming a fantastic technique and the buildings, suppressing people by its massive forms, futuristic battalias and catastrophes. The artist creates a monochrome dystopia.
