Biography
My name is Igor Sidorov. I was born on the 7th of February, 1960, in Norilsk city of Krasnoyarsk Territory. A year later, I moved to North Caucasia, where my family lived in Mozdok City. So, I started my creative development as an artist in an art studio for kids and then participated in a social exhibition of children's drawings in Thailand (1965). Then I left for the Ural with my family to Krasnoturinsk city (1966), where I graduated from musical, artistic and usual schools from 1967 to 1977. During school, the hobby I enjoyed was amateur radio communication, so I was a radio fan and got a license for my radio station (e.g., RA9CFW). Even now, I can hear my call signs on all short-waves radio. After that, in 1985, I got a higher education at the Ural Architect Academy (Ekaterinburg, Russia), then worked for some time as a head architect in Ust-Katav city (Chelyabinsk region). Later, I worked as an artist and scenic designer in Ekaterinburg Young People's Theatre and as an architect in the Russian Art Fund's studios. A short time later, I worked at four Puppet-Shows in North Osetia (republic Alania) and at two performances in Ekaterinburg Young People's Theatre. In May 2007, I worked at a children's performance in Tyumen Theatre "Engagement" as a scenic and costume designer (you can see some photos and reports on this site). In addition to my painting, I like to do architectural projects like the night lighting of city buildings. Some of the best works in this context are "Atrium Palace Hotel", Conservatory building, Variety Theatre (Ekaterinburg) and some objects in the Ural region. Some of my brightest works are in the restoration and reconstruction 12 icons of XIX century in Man's Chorus College (Ekaterinburg). From time to time, I take part in International Competitions of Caricature. I never won any prizes, but my name is in the subject catalogues as a competitor. Now I'm a free professional artist, living in Ekaterinburg city. My private collection has more than 500 picturesque and graphical artworks. |
