L intitulé de l exposition, les « Trottoirs de Paris », ne reflète pas seulement les visions nées de l imagination de l artiste lors de ses déambulations à travers la ville mythique, son sujet dépasse les limites du seul Paris. Pour Vladimir Ivanov, auteur de la remarquable introduction au présent catalogue, les images de Chemiakin sont l incarnation de « l absurdité de l existence et du triomphe de la mort » Pour moi, les « Trottoirs de Paris » sont aussi une métaphore de la vie où les événements découlent les uns des autres de façon parfaitement inopinée et imprévisible. Les taches, les bouts de papier, feuilles, et autre ce sont les traces de la vie de quelqu'un, de son activité, de ses actions. L'artiste les utilise afin de créer un monde de ses propres associations. Toutefois ces esquisses-métamorphoses, proches à l'origine du canular, passionnent l'auteur longtemps et fortement. Ce n est pas que les simples associations plastiques qui attirent l artiste. Son approche philosophique particulière de la nature, du monde, des hommes et de la vie ne peut pas ne pas s'incarner dans ces soi-disant « croquis », dans ces généralisations auxquelles Chemiakin est enclin et avec lesquelles le public aura encore la possibilité de se familiariser à travers d'autres de ses oeuvres." -- Evguénia Petrova, dans son introduction au catalogue.
