September 24 in the Jerusalem museum "Talpiot" the personal exhibition of Victor Brindatch - " of the most Jewish artist of Israel " has opened, as it the colleagues - artists for fun name. The Jewish theme really is basic in creativity of Victor Brindatch, and he "was ill" her even long before the arrival in Israel. And "was ill" in the beginning 80, in that period, when to it long-awaited popularity, at last, has come, his personal exhibitions began with success to pass in Moscow and in Leningrad, and conducting magazines of Russia on Art of steel that and business to occur truthful clauses devoted to his creativity - as, painting and sculptor. According to itself Brindatch, all began that he, much traveling with, brushes of a paint a canvas on Russia, became that and business and to notice in its cities both Jewish traces and Jewish of the Jewish life and Jewish culture, which were carefully ignored or even quite were intentionally destroyed, and all this could call him of the internal protest. And this protest, in turn, early or late owed to be poured out on cloths. Well, and then was aliya, which sensation Brindatch has passed in a picture, so to them and named - "Repatriation". In her on a background Tel-avivskikh of skyscrapers costs huge, level with them crafty Jewish Margarita with a broom, intended whether for cleaning of apartments and streets, and whether for where more wonderful things. And in the sky, above heads not wishing anything to notice tel-avivzev fly and fly, holding in hands suitcases, "Russian" Jews - eternal looking birds which have come back, at last, home. By one more picture of that period of steel " Impressions at a corner of streets Nakhlad-Benjyamin and Rambam ", where the same surprisingly celebratory mixture of paints and in close frameworks of a canvas to the artist, seems, the intersection was possible to contain not only this well familiar to each inhabitant of Tel Aviv, but also all Israel - street musicians, dealers, religious soldier hurrying somewhere with the girl, "Russian" … And at the centre of this composition is old rabbi, slowly, not paying attention to environmental vanity, about something talking with the grandson. And again involuntarily arises literary revival with a final stage Babelevskogo"Zakata", in which, has waved away hiding family tragedy of shouts the false well-being, ?rje-Lejb continues with the boy a lesson TORY: " On a place mine searched and has not found... What searched, asks us Rashi? And Rashi learns us: Israel searches TORU … " The end 90- ?- a beginning 2000 years was marked for Victor Brindatch by extraordinary burst of creative activity. These years he writes the whole series of cloths, embodying integral, existing as though outside of time and space, feature of the Jewish life (" a Lesson Toru ", "Seder", " Meeting of Saturday " etc.), creates a cycle of pictures " a History European Jewish ", where through extreme realistic pictures of life burned down in a flame of Accident of the Jewish place the high symbolics TANAKH and really world grief appears. Simultaneously Brindatch proves, that he remains thin psychological artist , creating a lot of interesting jobs in this genre. Thus on "" Brindatch is unexpected for all his close and for itself appears as old, wise rabbi in a saturday dressing gown and in a fur cap - SHTRAJML … On arrival to authority arielya sharona Brindatch, never hiding of the right political sights, unexpectedly has answered with a picture " Destruction YAMITA sharonom ". No, itself Arielya SHaronom in a picture no, but there is linked in fight with poselenzami policemen beaten by them Jewish intelligent in glasses, a young man convulsively compressing Israeli flag, which is taking place on roofs the students. And at the centre of a composition - confused planting by hands from burning and the misunderstandings occurring the professor - ochkarik, on behalf of which are easily guessed features great Israeli physics and former friend sharona YUvalya Neemana. And above all - letyashchaya in air a crate with the inhabitants YAmita, which thus in due time evacuated from this blossoming city in Sinajskoj to desert. Many then were perplexed, why Brindatch with such mistrust has considered a victory sharona, why he suddenly has decided to remember to him destruction ?????. And only in 2005 it became clear, that this picture has appeared really prophetical. In the same period Brindatch creates the cycle "the Jewish letters ", which is equally good and for creation new ivritskoj of the alphabet, and to help the adults’ dyadyam and aunts to penetrate into the most secret, mystical sense of the Jewish alphabet. The author of these lines well remembers, how wandered together with the younger son on a hall tel-avivskij "Bejt - Tanakh", where pictures and sculptures from this cycle for the first time were exposed. Together we tried to penetrate in a plan of the artist and to guess, why, for example, letter "IUD" associates at the artist with a kind of a western Wall? “Because the word "Ierushalaem"begins with the letter " IUD "?ssociates "Western wall!" - the son has assumed. I then have put forward idea, that the artist hints at a word "iekhid" - "unique"("sole"), reminding about the main idea iudaizma. And with these two words as by itself has appeared the word "iegudim" - Jews is connected. The letter of "trunks" with sitting on everyone her zubze by three Jewish wise men, appears, was called to remind not only word "shalosh" - "three", but the known expression " Pirkej avot " that " on three pillars costs(stands) this world - Tore, job and mercy … " I admit, then I and would like more close to meet and with Victor Brindatch, and his creativity. And when this acquaintance was held, I, admit, was struck both variety of genres and styles, in which he works, and his creative activity. And in rest at Brindatch, unfortunately, there was all the same as and at many other talented artists - pepotreantov: nishchenskoe existence, eternal dryazgi with the owners of the Israeli and American galleries, which norovyat to sell a picture podorozhe, but thus to the artist to pay zhalkie pennies, and that and in general to pretend, that nothing it is necessary, let alone manufacture of uncountable copies with liked pictures without any account of the copyrights the one whom she is written … by@ It is difficult to me to define, in which key works Vi9ctor Brindatch. He has many pictures written in a strict realistic manner, but it is a lot of also in which he gives back ???? to modern art currents, working on a joint at once several of them. And pictures " Izkhak and Rivka ", " a Ladder Yaakova " and other products on bible themes remind fascinating, bright illustrations to any ancient manuskript. Artist has admitted conversation with me frankly, what not ne priemlet abstract art and adheres old-fashioned sights, according to which the painting should to bring up to waken in the people interest to secrets of human soul, to remind to them of their roots and national history. - You only see that for pictures and reprodukzii hang at our schools and children's gardens! At the best, it is the posters with the image of the heroes’ American muljtfilmov. And in concert halls and houses of culture of a wall quite often are covered with any abstract figures, nothing speaking neither mind, nor heart! - complained during our recent conversation Brindatch. - And if children constantly adjoined to the present art, if they saw on walls of workshops the written pictures reminding to them of a great history of our people, about the greatest cultural values, created by him,maybe, and the growing up generation of the israelis would be perfect by other
