		Benois’s design is described by his brother (3) Alexandre Benois as ‘probably the best thing he ever produced’.
		Benois (1852–1929)); the State Printing House (1908–10), the French Embassy Chapel (1908–9; with Marian Peretyatkovich) and the Exhibition Building on the Griboyedov Canal (1914–16; now the Benois Wing of the State Russian Museum), all in St Petersburg.
		Their undemonstrative forms and detailing reflect the objections voiced in his circle, notably by Alexandre Benois and the critic Georgy Lukomsky (1884–1952), to the vulgarly bourgeois and self-assertive commercial buildings that were destroying the formal coherence of St Petersburg as a Neo-classical, imperial city.

		Alexandre Benois who, after starting his career in 1900 at the Ermitage court theatre, together with Bakst assisted Diaghilev in the founding of the Ballets Russes.

		Outre Alexandre Benois, ses deux frères Albert et Louis furent architectes et peintres de talent, tandis que leur sœur Catherine (également peintre) a épousé le sculpteur Eugène Lancerey qui était aussi d'ascendance française et à l'origine d'une lignée d'artistes réputés (l'architecte Nicolas Lancerey, les peintres Alexandre et Zenaïde Serebriakov, etc.).
		Parmi tous les autres représentants de la famille Benois, on mentionnera le compositeur Alexandre Tcherepnine (petit-fils d'Albert Benois), l'auteur-acteur Peter Ustinov (petit-fils de Louis Benois) et un autre peintre et architecte dénommé Albert Benois, connu pour avoir construit l'église Notre-dame de l'Assomption à Ste Geneviève des bois en 1938/39.
		Enfin, l'un des résultats les plus marquants de l'action de l'Association des Benois a été la réalisation de documentaires filmés pour la télévision française (FR3) et pour la télévision soviétique de Léningrad en 1989, auxquels l'Association a apporté son plein concours en participant aux prises de vus de ces deux films.

		Despite the Imperial Court's initial disinterest, the work swiftly won its public -- among whom was a group of young enthusiasts, the "Neva Pickwickians," whose number included Alexandre Benois, Leon Bakst, and Sergei Diaghilev.
		Benois noted that their imaginations were fired by the glories of the work, and thirty years later it was Diaghilev's Ballets Russes that brought THE SLEEPING BEAUTY to the West.
		In 1921 his company was without a choreographer, and he decided to show his European audiences something of the splendor of the Imperial Ballet.

		L'Association des Benois a été créée à Paris en 1985 afin d'engager des pourparlers avec les autorités soviétiques de l'époque en vue de la fondation en U.R.S.S. d'un Musée consacré aux oeuvres de la famille Benois.
		A l'origine de la place prise par les Benois dans le domaine de l'art, on trouve un Français du nom de Louis-Jules Benois, né en 1770 dans un bourg rural de la Brie du nom de St Ouen sur Morin et qui a émigré à St-Pétersbourg en 1794.
		Le représentant le plus illustre de cette famille a été le peintre et historien d'art Alexandre Benois (1870-1960).

		The most influential figure of the early twentieth century was the impresario Sergey Diaghilev, who founded an innovative touring ballet company in 1909 with choreographer Michel Fokine, dancer Vaslav Nijinksy, and designer Alexandre Benois.
		In 1898 the theatrical designer Alexandre Benois and the dance impresario Sergey Diaghilev founded the World of Art group, which extended the innovation of the previous generation, played a central role in introducing the contemporary modern ar t of Western Europe to Russia, and acquainted West Europeans with Russia's art through exhibitions and publications.
		In the nineteenth century, Russia's architecture and decorative arts combined European techniques and influences with the forms of early Russia, producing the so-called Russian Revival seen in churches, public buildings, and homes of that period.

	Designers: Alexandre Benois
		Alexandre Benois (1870-1960) came from an artistic family.
		A specialist on ancien-regime French art, Benois designed frequently for the theater, including the French-inflected designs for Le Pavillon d’Armide which became the first ballet Sergei Diaghilev staged in Paris in 1909.

	- Diablo Ballet, Walnut Creek, May 21 2005
		Petrushka (based loosely on the Alexandre Benois libretto)
		It was a pity that Nikolai Kabaniaev’s interpretation of Petrushka had to be the final ballet to give Erika Johnson such a central role in a convoluted plot about Angels, Children, Choice, Behavior and a Master Charlatan.
		Clearly the company lacks the resources to rival Fokine and a collaboration with Benois and Stravinsky which produced the most perfect theater ballet yet choreographed.

		Although he attended the Academy of Arts for four months (1887–8) and classes at various studios in France, including that of Whistler in 1896, Alexandre Benois regarded himself as a self-taught artist.
		Brought up in the milieu of an artistic and influential family, he organized art circles at both the gymnasium and the university.

	Report on the 22nd Pordenone Silent Film Festival
		The first great work to screen as part of the retrospective was Yakov Protazanov's 1916 The Queen of Spades (Pikovaya Dama).
		Protazanov's film distinguishes itself on many levels (sets by Alexandre Benois, creative camerawork), but especially its keen study of the psyche.
		Mozhukhin's performance in this film is one of studied, self-absorbed intensity, perfectly assimilating the contemporaneous Russian acting ideal for interior characterisation.
