In the life of Natalia Goncharova
The whole life1904
From sculpture to painting, under Korovin
Back at the school, Goncharova moved to Konstantin Korovin's painting studio. The change is often credited to Larionov, who told her: “You have eyes for colour, yet you busy yourself with form.”
1906
Russian art at the Salon d'Automne
Goncharova exhibited at the Paris Salon d'Automne, in its Exposition de l'art russe.
24 March 1910
First solo show and a charge of pornography
At the club of the Society of Free Aesthetics Goncharova showed 22 paintings for a single day; after an anonymous notice in the newspaper “Golos Moskvy” the police seized two “Models” and the painting “God”, and she was charged with pornography.
December 1910 – January 1911
First Jack of Diamonds exhibition
The first show of the Jack of Diamonds — Moscow's first radical independent exhibiting group, named by Larionov — included Goncharova's Primitivist and Cubist paintings.
1911
Develops Rayonism with Larionov
Goncharova and Larionov developed Rayonism and painted many works in the style (elsewhere Rayonism is dated 1912–1914).
March – April 1912
The Donkey's Tail: over fifty paintings
More than fifty of her paintings hung at the first Donkey's Tail exhibition, which Larionov organised as a break with European influence; the censor confiscated “The Evangelists” as blasphemous.
