The Albuquerque Fresco by Ilia Anossov is a paradigm of a brilliant modern fresco. Its technique is on the Grande scale. Viewing it is reminiscent of watching a gigantic film, for this fresco incorporates not only cinematic techniques, and reminders of the most brilliant art, but also resounds of the painting of late modern artists with a flair for whimsy, like Jean Miro, and Paul Klee. At the same time there are images and techniques which evoke paintings of early masters.
It is as though the fresco artists have honed a living and breathing creature Fresco is public art rather than "elite" art. It is also a common effort of the artist, plasterer and others involved in the process. Frescoes created for all people to see and enjoy, and do not require extensive education to understand and analyze their significance. Granted there will always be scholars and art critics who take apart every art work, but frescos are made for the collective enjoyment. Frescos depict the most cherished cultural aspects of any civilization in their attitudes.

  • Hey are you using pigment since oil will destroy it and is it water based

  • hahaha, "paradigm of a brilliant modern fresco," eh? Well, there are certainly aspects about it that I feel could have been more successful. I'm not really a fan of the putti sculptures...kinda wish they were painted. Also, the drawing of the main female figure leaves something to be desired. That being said, I still think this is a marvelous accomplishment and you guys should be proud of carrying on such a noble tradition. Inspiring!

  • What makes you think so LOL

  • sorry but that's not FRESCO

  • Nice Vid!!!! what is the name of the song at the beginning?
