Biography

Otdelnov was born in Dzerzhinsk, a city located in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast of Russia, and devoted himself to painting since childhood. He practiced in local studio, finished elementary art school in his hometown in 1994 and entered Nizhny Novgorod Arts College. According to Otdelnov, the college was a conservative education institution that preserved traditions of socialist realism art and painting from nature. The college did not offer dormitory and Otdelnov travelled to Nizhny Novgorod and back by suburban rail, using the time for sketching. His works were displayed for the first time at Miezdunarodny Plener Malarski in Sławków, Poland in 1997. His first solo exhibition took place at Peter the Great House in Nizhny Novgorod in 1999.[1][2][3][4]

He graduated from college in 1999 with diploma project devoted to First Chechen War casualties. The teachers from V. Surikov Moscow State Academy Art Institute who attended at the defense recommended Otdelnov to continue education in the institute. In the same year he moved to Moscow, entered Faculty of Painting and joined the workshop led by Pavel Nikonov, an acknowledged master of art, co-founder of 'Severe Style' of Soviet art. Nikonov's approach to teaching was focused on composition and picture plane organization, staging for drawing or painting was considered a secondary discipline.[5][6][7]

Throughout his student years Otdelnov travelled a lot and participated in exhibitions in other countries. In 2001 he displayed his works on Arte Padova art fair in Padua, Italy followed by his solo exhibition on . That trip provided him an opportunity to visit the 49th Venice Biennale and familiarize himself with new media art, completely different from what he studied. In 2005 Otdelnov received a specialist degree with a diploma project based on Gospel stories and entered Master's degree program. He received Ministry of Culture's scolarship for young artists and joined Moscow Union of Artists and started to display his works in contemporary art galleries.[4][8][9][10]

Lego Mall, oil on canvas, 2015. The work from Tretyakov Gallery collection
Pavel Otdelnov, whose artistic vocabulary is likewise located at the junction of photographic and painterly aesthetic dimensions (by his own admission, he has been influenced by the modern photographer Andreas Gursky, as well as the Russian pop artist and painter Mikhail Roginsky), <...> explores the architecture of the sites set to become monuments of the next, post-industrial era which will not leave in its wake palaces and cathedrals. His paintings feature not industrial landmarks, but landmarks of consumption and communication: Pavel Otdelnov images trading centers on the outskirts, fuel stations and highways. However, the beauty found by the artist in these facilities, which only recently began to dot our living space, is far from the pop-art ironic apologia of the flashy ephemerality of the current moment.
