Anatoly Pavlovich Belkin (; born 1953) is a contemporary Russian artist based in St. Petersburg.〔http://www.artoftheprint.com/artistpages/belkin_anatoly_apartment.htm〕 His paintings can sell for thousands of dollars at auction.〔http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/17810/lot/121/〕 〔http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/21646/lot/132/〕 One of his better-known works was the 2004 exhibition ''Swamp Gold'' at the State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg.〔http://www.hermitagemuseum.org/html_En/11/2004/hm11_4_160.html〕 The elaborate instillation was composed of over 300 objects purporting to be evidence of the existence of a swamp-dwelling gnomish people in ancient Europe. It was created in collaboration with archaeologists from the museum〔http://www.shop.hermitagemuseum.org/html_En/02/hm2_6_0_25.html〕 and dealt with themes such as the disappearance of indigenous cultures and the loss of self in modern times. Belkin studied art at the Repin Institute of Arts in Saint Petersburg〔http://cargocollective.com/ruartmap/Belkin-Anatoly-BELKIN-ANATOLII〕 and became one of the youngest members of the Soviet Nonconformist Art movement〔http://dsgallery.ru/?cat=7〕 which consisted of artists who risked government persecution for exhibiting their work at shows not sponsored or sanctioned by the Soviet state. 〔http://www.artoftheprint.com/artistpages/belkin_anatoly_apartment.htm〕 〔http://www.web-gallery.org/Belkin/Bio-en.htm〕 ==References== *http://www.artoftheprint.com/artistpages/belkin_anatoly_apartment.htm *http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/17810/lot/121/ *http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/21646/lot/132/ *http://www.hermitagemuseum.org/html_En/11/2004/hm11_4_160.html *http://www.shop.hermitagemuseum.org/html_En/02/hm2_6_0_25.html *http://www.web-gallery.org/Belkin/Bio-en.htm *http://cargocollective.com/ruartmap/Belkin-Anatoly-BELKIN-ANATOLII 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anatoly Belkin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
