Mykola SYADRYSTYI: “My micro miniatures is the art of the ХХІ century”

Monarchs and presidents are proud of knowing him. And the countries visited by him make a full-scale atlas of the world.

Communication with Mykola SYADRYTSYI always seemed to be as unreal as his micro miniatures. The thing is not in some unavailability of his telephone numbers. A meeting with a Master is like, for example, an appointment with Buddha Gautama – from the sphere of dreams. The art of Syadrytsyi is not less incomprehensible than the boundlessness of the Universe.
Stepping the paths of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra to the familiar since childhood and the most favorite capital museum of micro miniatures of Mykola Syadrytskyi, I was thinking that there are less and less geniuses in our life. In the epoch of total unification, leveling of a personality and bellicose dilettantism geniuses are born unwillingly on the Earth. Therefore Ukraine was extraordinarily lucky to have Syadrytskyi. And I was lucky to have a real meeting with him.
