About Natalia Goncharova
- Natalia Sergeevna Goncharova (Russian: ????´??? ?????´???? ???????´??, IPA: [n?'tal?j? s??r'g?ej?vn? g?n?t??'rov?]; June 21, 1881 – October 17, 1962) was a Russian avant-garde artist, painter, costume designer, writer, illustrator, and set designer.
- Goncharova's lifelong partner was also a fellow Russian avant-garde artist Mikhail Larionov.
- She was a founding member of both the Jack of Diamonds (1909–1911), Moscow's first radical independent exhibiting group, the more radical Donkey's Tail (1912–1913), and with Larionov invented Rayonism (1912–1914).
- She was also a member of the German based art movement known as Der Blaue Reiter.
- Born in Russia, she moved to Paris in 1921 and lived there until her death. Her painting vastly influenced the avant-garde in Russia.
- Her exhibition held in Moscow and St.
- Petersburg (1913 and 1914) were the first promoting a “new” artist by an independent gallery.
- When it comes to the pre-revolutionary period in Russia, where decorative painting and icons were a secure profession, her modern approach to rendering icons were both transgressive and problematic.
- Her work is usually considered too culturally specific to her Slavic heritage to be universally figured as avant-garde.
