Artist Statement:
When examining a piece of art,
people are inclined to look
for familiar shapes and
objects. However, such literal
characters have no room in
non-tangible art. I hope that
you will find my work
interesting in terms of form,
color as well as composition.
You might see something that
reminds you of a familiar
tangible object. You even
might fall in love with an
abstract painting, without
knowing exactly why. The years
will pass by and this feeling
of infatuation is very likely
to stay with you forever.
I truly believe that the most
complex emotions can be evoked
by the simplest forms. My art
explores the relationship
between man-made structures
and the world of nature. In my
opinion, the idea of
recognizable shapes and
structures living within
irrational thoughts and
emotions is highly intriguing.
I usually begin painting very
spontaneously and during the
working process enter a
trance-like state. The
composition starts to show
itself gradually.
In recent years, I've been
using more neutrals and oxide
colors to enhance the
vividness of my paintings.
Interestingly enough, my
drawings have received more
concrete forms. I've distanced
my art from abstract
impressionism and focused on
more ...

| Your Personal Biography |
Marat was born in 1965 in Kazakhstan. Ever since his childhood he was characterized by exceptional sensitivity and special vision of the surrounding world. His affection for drawing led him into Kazakhstan's Alma-Ata Art College, where he obtained classical artistic education.
During his college years, Marat being one of the leaders of the underground group of young artists, dubbed "The Green Triangle," participated in many prestigious exhibitions.
The search for new forms of self-expression, the comprehension of the surrounding world, riot against the traditional ways of life, desire of the realization of those beating through the edge of energy and ideas - all these brought together young artists of those times.
The first two exhibitions of the underground group, which both took place in 1989 at the "Kniga" museum and the "Perekrestok" in Alma-Ata, represented a breakthrough towards freedom in the numbed environment of post-Soviet times.
The subsequent exhibitions of Marat in the Architect Union and in the "Rukhani" rock club, in cooperation with "The Green Triangle" in 1990-1991, contributed to artistic development and triggered waves of action in the creative circles of Alma-Ata of those times.
"The Green Triangle's" exhibition at Voznesensky Cathedral Square attracted virtual masses. Indeed, this was a prominent event for the city. Numerous abstract, incomprehensible pictures and eccentric young people triggered waves of enthusiasm and supplemented the rows of those "thinking differently."
Marat also participated in the "Nevada - Semipalatinsk" exhibition voicing objection against nuclear weapons, together with rock musicians from Saint Petersburg. In exchange for The Green Triangle's wall painting effort of children's oncologic hospital hall, the artists were presented the opportunity to travel to Moscow and participate in the one and only Russian "Pink Floyd" concert.
Members of "The Green Triangle" became sheer legends for the Alma-Ata underground.
At the same time, there appear hundreds of graphic creations, with endless crossing lines that form countless images in the limited space of a sheet, thus, revealing their infinite potential. Exhibition "Reverse Side of Pictures," in the showroom of the Union of Artists, was sponsored by businesswoman Makhabat and received much positive feedback for its rather nontraditional approach to art.
Marat presented his work at a Kazakhstan exhibition, dubbed "Eurasia," in the prestigious Kasteev Museum of Arts named after A. Kasteev, just before his departure to Israel in 1996. His works are characterized by original color compositions, by spiritual and emotional fullness, and eventually obtained the most flattering praises.
After his arrival to Israel, Marat discovered new experiences, yet unfamiliar to him. He works a lot, with enthusiasm and purpose. Marat frees his fantasy and imagination, and includes in his creative activities both consciousness and subconsciousness, both meditation and intuition.
The eagerness shed all burden, to be freed from the surrounding world's constrictions, to understand the secret of the universe, attracts him to the expressive splash of colors and new-discovered forms into numerous mystical compositions. The originality and the special energy of Marat's drawings attracted a young French husband and wife who in 1996 exhibited Marat's creations in Strasbourg. In 1998, Marat organized his own personal exhibition in Tel Aviv, in the Matusevich Gallery. Marat's pictures have been purchased by art aficionados from all over the globe.
Later on, Marat exhibited his work in both personal and group exhibitions. The most notable one is at the Israeli Festival of Wine held on an annual basis. Among his greatest accomplishments is Marat's cooperation with "Taldor" - a project which included wall painting of many schools all around Israel. Marat has also worked with many children, triggering their love for art, by creating legendary worlds with the help of his restless brush and a wide selection of colors.
Marat's passionate desire to conquer "kilometers of canvas and tons of colors" materialized through a major project ordered by "Mikhlala le-Minhal." Three floors of a college in Or Yehuda, Israel, were suddenly filled with color and new energy. Within a year, Marat painted each and every corner of the building. Just like in a real museum, people are offered the rare opportunity to pass along the corridors, and examine the views, the intricate compositions, and the portraits... The "kilometers of canvas" disallow viewers to turn their eyes away.
Marat's pictures attract their viewers, urge them to initiate an unknown journey, immerse into thoughts about unknown existence. Marat is devoted to art and considers it his life!
Today, Marat's work is featured in private collections in the following countries: USA, France, Germany, Italy, Israel, Kazakhstan, Russia, Korea, and Turkey.
