Name Maya Plisetskaya - a whole era in world ballet. It is simply impossible to overestimate the skill and talent of this wonderful dancer. You can only admire her: make films about her life, write books, or paint her portraits on the walls of houses. This is exactly what the famous Brazilian street artist did. Eduardo Kobra … Now on one of the Moscow streets there is a huge graffiti depicting Maya Plisetskaya.
We have repeatedly told the readers of the site Kulturologiya. Ru about the work of Eduardo Cobra. Suffice it to recall the retrographies he performed on the streets of his native Sao Paulo and Los Angeles. Bright, juicy and large-scale images, rainbow colors, precise geometric shapes - this is the artist's corporate style.
Recall that in the creative biography of Eduardo Cobra there have already been experiments to create portraits of celebrities. One of his most famous works is a portrait in memory of the architect Oscar Niemeyer. Now the artist decided to surprise Russians with elegant graffiti, the image of Maya Plisetskaya became the embodiment of grace, beauty and creativity.
The creation of the graffiti was timed to coincide with the 88th anniversary of the birth of Maya Plisetskaya, one of the greatest ballerinas of the 20th century. She celebrates her birthday on November 20, so Eduardo Cobra's drawing became a kind of gift not only for her, but for all the townspeople. It took the artist several days to paint a large-scale image over 12 meters high and over 15 meters wide on the wall. In the picture, you can see the perfect combination of graceful ballet steps and the amazing energy that the ballerina literally radiates.
