Biography

Sergey Supalov is an Arkhangelsk artist and photographer, Oblachny Kray's "photo chronicler".

Sergey Supalov is an Arkhangelsk artist and photographer, Oblachny Kray's "photo chronicler". He designed Svobody Zahoteli? (1990): the cover shows a giant statue of a dictator with the song characters climbing it. For 1991 he painted, at Bogaev's request, a picture of a ruined Arkhangelsk, and later he designed Lyubov k Zhizni (1999).

In the 2000s, as the site puts it, Supalov became the main keeper of the band's creative legacy: he digitised old recordings and video (in 2005 from VHS), preserved the original titles and artwork of 1982, restored covers and colours of old albums for the 2008–2010 reissues, and in 2010 edited video of a concert and synchronised it with the sound.

Supalov started and ran the Arkhangelsk magazine «Absurd» — about all Arkhangelsk rock, not only heavy rock; according to Bogaev, he also drew about half of the band's album covers.
