Résumé anglais Leonid Heller, The way of craftsmen of our time. Filonov, Platonov, Khlebnikov and some others... This article is centered around the detection of analogies in the creative processes of the great painter Pavel Filonov and of the great writer Andrei Platonov. These analogies appear gradually in the course of a series of comparisons with "intermediary" artists, in particular with V. Khlebnikov and the poets of Oberiu group. The discovery of the relationship in the approach, transcending the boundaries of their respective artistic domains, leads us to inquire into the reasons of such spiritual kinship, and the eventuality of common aims. The article suggests a new standpoint with regard to Platonov' s work which would include him - as well as Khlebnikov and Filonov - within the framework of the great artistic wave of the 1910' s-1930' s, combining the neo-f iodorovist conception of the universe with the neo-primitivist approach and "artisanal" attitude towards the artistic material resulting in pictural or literary execution based on the concepts of sdvig and distantiation. It is also an endeavour to find an adequate method to render the artistic-cultural atmosphere of Russia during the first three decades of our century.
