Biography
Ivan Petrovich Gurev was born in 1875. Having shown interest in painting, in 1906-1912 he studied at the Higher Art School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture in St. Petersburg at the Imperial Academy of Arts . He studied as a volunteer at the artists Pavel Petrovich Chistyakov and Vasily Evmenievich Savinsky . In 1912 he received the title of the artist for the painting "Baskaki" [2] .
Living and working in Kazan, Guryev was a member of the Kazan branch of the Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia (AHRR), participated in academic exhibitions, since 1905 - in exhibitions of the St. Petersburg Society of Artists, exhibitions of the Association of Ulyanovsk Artists.
In subsequent years, he lived in Petrograd , then - in Simbirsk , in Kazan. In the 1920s he worked in Simbirsk as a teacher at the Krasnaya Zvezda art studio, then, in the 1930s, as a teacher at the Kazan Art School .
Artist I. Guriev painted portraits, landscapes and genre canvases, illustrated books. He worked in the provincial version of the late peasant movement of writing. His paintings are reminiscent of paintings by Vladimir Egorovich Makovsky and Nikolai Alekseevich Kasatkin. Late perennial style was also reflected in the choice of the artist’s plots. Ivan Petrovich Guryev created many portraits on local materials. In 1929 he combined these canvases into the Volga Types series.
In the 1920s, in accordance with the program of the Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia, artists were supposed to reflect in painting the achievements and signs of post-revolutionary life. The artist's painting "Meeting of a hydroplane in Ulyanovsk in 1927" (1927) corresponded to new tasks. However, on the whole, Ivan Petrovich Gurev remained faithful to the techniques adopted at the Academy of Arts until the end of his life and interpreted the new themes as genre.
I. Guriev died on September 23, 1943.
