The paintings of Fedor Morozov are loved and appreciated among the few art fondsand connoisseurs. All this gives the notion about the elite kind of Morozov's art. I think that the plot basis of his works is the mixture of fantastic realism and "interpretations of two different epochs of the world culture: the art of French and Italian renaissance on one side and the artists of the new modern wave, called "miserabilism" J.Karzon, on the other. That all attract to Fedor not only with the style peculiarities, but also with their search for the space structure of the work.The singularity of Morozov's works, in which we feel some kind of a mystery, occurs through the unusual tasks the artist sets for himself in a large series of paintings such as "Family Portrait", "Park", "Son's portrait", "The Salvador's Battle" and others, where artist tried to interpret the canvas space and the real space which are, obviously, identical in Morozov's perception, as the combination of the reality and metaphysical, unreal and as a result, illogical relations between events and characters. Using this "splitting of space" technique Fedor Morozov creates an unusual world populated with fantastic creatures, filled with fragments of events and illogical relations. Having snorted his creative development with expressionism he resently comes back to it more and more often.
