Образ Одессы в стихотворениях на мольберте (поэтический взгляд художников второй волны одесского авангарда)

Abstract

The article under the title “An image of Odessa in the poems at an easel ” (poetic view of the artists of Odessa avant-gardism of the second stream) represents an attempt to define the means of poetic ekphrazis in the poetry of two Odessa avant-gardism representatives of 60-90-s of XX century that are A. Dmitriev and N. Stepanov. In A. Dmitriev’s poems landscape and portrait means of creation of Odessa image are observed. Esthetization of feelings addressed to the city, creates an image of the subject of love and adoration. The view prospect of the surrounding space is focused at one point, e.g. the sea bay. Lyricism and irony are observed in poems of Stepanov, the author of poetic sculptures Ovid, Arkadiy Gaydar, Petya and Gavrik, Grigoriy Skovoroda. His sculpture view is observed in the poem Petya and Gavrik; the sculptural composition of two literary heroes from V. Kataev’s novel The Sail is Whitening Alone is shown as a symbol of romantic love to Odessa, of freedom, youth and of a dream. Altogether the poet observes an image of young Kataev, which is not objectivised in his sculptural work. Hence the author creates two view prospects at the monument: the first touches upon the writer, the second one deals with an artist.
