The world
of wonder is presented for the visitors of this inimitable exhibition. The
exhibits displayed here are so tiny that they can be seen only under the
microscope. Every work of art shown here is exceptionally unique and has
been executed by the craftsman according to specific technology, to this
effect, resort has been made to specialty designed for this purpose original
instruments and appliances. The material made use of for making these
microminiature- miniatures is also different.
Nikolai S. Syadristy, the author of
these works, a personality of varied interests and extremely gifted creative
abilities, was born in 1937, being educated as an agronomist he has also
undergone training at the art college and has become a master in underwater-
sports. The art of microminiature is his hobby for already more than twenty
years. His endeavor in such a rare kind of art resulted in the award of the
Honorary Master of Ukrainian Folk Art.
The works of this merited craftsman
are mainly presented by two personal permanent exhibitions, one of which is
in the Moscow Polytechnic Museum and the second one is in the Kiev-Pechersk
State Historic-Cultural Museum. Exhibitions of microminiatures created by
Nikolai S. Syadristy proved to be of great success in Montreal. Paris,
Tokyo, Osaka, Prague, Sofia, Budapest, Warsaw, Dresden and a good many of
other cities the world over.
"Microminiatures," writes Nikolai
S. Syadristy in his book 'Mysteries of Micro technology,' "to a great extent
reflect the attained level of treatment for various materials and.
consequently, the degree of comprehension of their properties, they vividly
narrate on the culture of the human labor, thus, they actually dwell on the
culture of the human thinking proper.
They carry within themselves a
certain part of information characterizing the contemporaneity. It is known
that the thing able to impress a person by his own possibilities, by this
fact, alone, affects his morality."
The author of the microminiatures,
N. S. Syadristy, was assisted in the aesthetic and decorative design of the
exhibition hall by two artists: art designer V. M. Solodov and mural painter
A. V. Gaidamaka. The expositional equipment was manufactured by the Kiev
Aviation Production Amalgamation, Brovari Aluminum Constructions oWorks and
others. The building works were carried out by the Kiev Specialized Research
and Restoration Shops of Gosstroy (State Construction Department) to the
Ukrainian SSR.
