In a desire to “crack” Feshin’s code, I wrote several articles for a broader study of the life and work of the artist and introduced them to one of the Russian universities. These essays are devoted to such topics as “non-finito” in Feshin’s work, his talent in the role of professor of the art school in Kazan (Russia), psychological and social research to identify the list of typical features of genius people, based on the example of Feshin’s phenomenon.
