Abstract

The article is devoted to the research of the art of Krasnoyarsk artist Sergey Forostovsky. In-depth interviews with the artist and philosophical analysis by the methods of V.I. Zhukovsky and N.P. Koptseva were used as methods of research. The results of the research allowed to give a general characteristic of the artist's work: he singled out two types of paintings — emotional and associative; he described the painting style and coloring; described the key genres in which Forostovsky works, including the concept of a painting-remembrance; identified some important philosophical themes of his work, such as visualization of emptiness. Separate consideration is given to Forostovsky's paintings based on his creative journeys to China — Harbin, Inner Mongolia and Tibet. As representative works are considered such as: "Annunciation Cathedral in Harbin", the diptych of paintings "I was born in Manchuria" and "My Life Manchuria", "Walking on the Island of the Sun", "Wind from the Sungari" and "Potala Palace".
