Life

The noble Glebow family traced back to the legendary Swedish knight Oblaginja of the 14th century. Glebowa's father was the politician and businessman Nikolai Nikolayevich Glebow . Her uncle was the engineer and businessman Andrei Nikolayevich Glebow .

Glebowa attended the St. Petersburg girls' high school of Marija Stojunina (wife of the educator and publicist Vladimir Jakowlewitsch Stojunin ). After the October Revolution Glebowa lived with her family from 1918 to 1921 on the country estate Korotnewo (Andreizewo) near Mologa (at the mouth of the Mologa in the Volga ) in the Yaroslavl Oblast , which later went down in the Rybinsk Reservoir . She studied at the Rybinsk School of Music.

In the autumn of 1921 Glebowa returned to Petrograd and studied at the Petrograd Conservatory . There she met the musician Marija Judina and the musician Isai Braudo , with whom she had a long-standing friendship. In 1922 she left the Conservatory and worked in the Lomonossow State Porcelain Manufactory . In 1924 she studied with Al Savinov in his private studio .

In 1925 Glebowa moved to the workshop of Pavel Filonov and became his student. In 1927, the Association of Masters of Analytical Art (MAI) of Filonov's students and friends was established, with whom Glebova, under the leadership of Filonov, carried out the artistic design of the House of the Press in Leningrad . In pairs, individual paintings were created for an exhibition. Glebowa and Alisa Poret created a mural on the canvas of which Poret's right stripe depicted beggars and homeless people and Glebowa's left stripe depicts The Prison . This MAI exhibition was a great success. Glebowas prison is located in Madrid's Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum , while Porets is privately owned beggars and homeless people . Glebowa always worked according to Filonov's analytical method, without giving up her individuality.

In 1926 Glebova began to illustrate children's books for Leningrad and Moscow publishers, especially for DetGis . Together with Poret she designed around 16 books. They also worked for the children's magazines Igel and Zeisig . Glebowa was friends with the poets Alexander Vwedenski and Daniil Charms from 1927 until their arrest after the beginning of the war in 1941. She illustrated Charm's poems and books, and created his portrait in the 1930s. 1929–1932 she illustrated four books by Vwedenski with Poret. In 1931 the photographer Pawel Mokijewski took a series of photo images. Charms only participated in the one picture Unequal Marriages with two photos with Glebowa and two photos with Poret.

In 1931 Glebowa designed the set for Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg by Richard Wagner in the small opera theater . Even after that she worked artistically for theater and cinema until 1943. In 1931 Poret and Glebowa painted the house in profile (also profile of our house ), which was highly valued by Filonow. When Poret moved from Leningrad to Moscow in 1945 after the war , she cut off her part of the house in profile and took it with her. The whereabouts of this part is unknown. The heirs gave Glebowa's part of the painting to the Yaroslavl Art Museum in 1989 .

In 1932 Glebowa and Poret and their MAI colleagues took over the artistic design of the book Kalevala , which was published in 1933 by the Leningrad Academia Verlag. 1932-1933 Glebowa participated in the exhibition Artists after 15 years of the RSFSR in the Russian Museum in Leningrad and in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow. In 1934 the collaboration with Poret ended.

At the beginning of the war in 1941, Glebova stayed in Leningrad and experienced the first winter blockade . She kept a diary and worked artistically every day. In December 1941 she buried her father and her teacher Filonov. In the summer of 1942 she was evacuated to Alma-Ata with her mother, who died there. Glebowa worked a lot and participated in exhibitions. She married the artist and Malevich student Vladimir Sterligow , with whom she returned to Leningrad at the end of 1945.

In the 1950s Glebowa painted many pictures, but they were rarely exhibited. During these years she was friends with Wera (Traugott) Janowa , Benedikt Liwschiz , JS Druskin and Vsevolod Petrow . Together with her husband, she created pictures in this new visual language. 1963–1966 they were the center of the Altpeterhof School of artists and like-minded people. In 1968, after many years of effort, Glebowa, Sterligow and Pawel Salzman opened the first Filonov exhibition in Leningrad after the war. In addition, Glebowa wrote her memories of her teacher: "How we studied with Filonow". Her memories of Marija Judina (1973), Anna Akhmatova (1975) and Daniil Charms (1975–1976) followed. Since 1971, and after his death in 1973 with her husband, she has held quarterly exhibitions in her studio . During her last decades her works took up a mystical - religious theme.

Glebowa's works can be found in the Russian Museum in St. Petersburg, the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, the St. Petersburg Historical Museum, the Moscow Pushkin Museum and the Museum of Organic Culture in the Kremlin in Kolomna .
