The artist, who played a large, but not yet fully appreciated role in the art of Udmurtia: he was the first to actively transform urban space and public interiors with monumental stained glass windows, and used mosaic panels in a new way for the same purposes. At the same time, he did not just introduce new technologies into local art: it was a different look at the aestheticization of the urban environment, supported by the authorities and implemented in many objects. In those now distant years, monumental art embodied not only large-scale ideas, but also gave scope to artistic experimentation. Not all works, unfortunately, have survived, but those that continue to exist testify to the author’s talent and his ascetic work. After all, in order for all these stained glass windows and mosaic panels to shine with bright colors, extraordinary creative will and organizational skills are needed. In the republic there were not only no traditions of this type of art, but also no basis for the production of high-quality glass suitable for realizing the artist’s plans. Therefore, all parts of Izhevsk stained glass windows were cast by the author in Belarus at the Neman plant, delivered to the republic, and installed here at prepared facilities.
