Arte excelso, preparado en casa, por Leontxo García | El rincón de los inmortales 458

Azerbaijani Grandmaster Mamedov creates a masterpiece that is, in reality, a stunning laboratory recipe; but, exceptionally, it is included in this collection for its exceptional beauty and depth. A work of art prepared at home with the help of very powerful computers has less merit than one improvised at the chessboard under the pressure of the clock, the opponent, and the competitive tension. But it is still a work of art and—in the case of the game in this video—one of extraordinary beauty. Furthermore, as Garry Kasparov often emphasizes, “to work very hard in one's own training also requires a special talent.” Rauf Mamedov (Baku, 1988) is one of the golden generation of Azerbaijani chess players (like Radyabov, Mamedyarov, and the late Gashimov) who emerged in the wake of Kasparov's enormous fame. He was born in Baku in 1963 and lived there until he had to flee to Moscow in January 1990 because Armenians and Azeris were killing each other in the streets. This game clearly demonstrates his great technical skill and profound concepts.
