The Author's Creative Path
"…on top of everything else, poetry is the leading voice that can engage a wide range of people into this or that phenomenon. Even now, when there is television, press, cinema art and many other information channels, the poetry still has its own specific niche – especially when it is necessary to affect people's emotions and their subconscious pursuit of justice. As it seems to me, this is what happens to readers of your poem – and this is where it has apparent value, both in terms of history and art." Andrey Moiseev
"You train can't be stopped, even though there are those who would like it to happen." Tatiana Zommer
"Problematics of poetical works of Alexandr Savostyanov is to a greater extent in line with moral settings of the Russian cosmism. Through the word of art, they deliver the metaphysical problem of correlation between macro and micro cosmos in the images and symbols of the poetic text. Alexandr Savostyanov is the acknowledged master of diverse, mostly avant-garde, poetic forms. But most often these are nowise immersion in his own virtual reality or broadcasting of sensuous experience, but, on the contrary, the actionable and citizenly authorship. Alexandr Savostyanov is a Russian partiotic poet. His poetry discourses and offen accuses making its readers "use their brains". The author strives for creating a new image of the Russian Path, to the world harmony at the social, international, spiritual and planetary levels." Elena Grislis
