Administration of Sokolsky district

All-Russian project “A meeting place with art” - an educational and educational initiative of the Ministry of Culture Russian Federation and the ROSIZO Museum and Exhibition Center, which was successfully held in 29 small and medium-sized cities of Russia in 2016 and continues its triumphal march across the country, covering another 12 new regional destinations in 2017.

The large-scale project is being implemented with the participation of the Russian Museum, the Moscow Pedagogical state university, Institute art education and cultural experts from RAO and Russian Post. Since April 2016, residents of Russian cities have become acquainted with the key works of Alexander Deineka and Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin, Alexander Laktionov and other Soviet artists of the 1920s-40s.

The goal of the “Meeting Place with Art” project is to provide an opportunity to meet art for residents of remote corners of Russia from the center, who cannot visit the country’s leading museums due to geographical distance, and where, due to the nature of transportation and exhibition, masterpieces of painting cannot reach. The organizers aim to provide decent cultural leisure for Russians from Yalta to Leninsk-Kuznetsky, and using the example of the Soviet fine arts teach residents Russian cities understand the works of artists by talking about their work in accessible language.

The collection of the traveling exhibition includes high-precision full-size copies of paintings Soviet masters, whose textbook works tell about turning points in the history of our country: “Meeting of the Heroic Crew” by Pyotr Maltsev, “Defense of Sevastopol” (1942) by Alexander Deineka, “After the Battle” (1923) by Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin, “Erection of the Workshop” (1932) Peter Williams, “Letter from the Front” (1947) by Alexander Laktionov, “Alexander Nevsky” (1942) by Pavel Korin, “Women Radio Operators” (1930) by Maria Bri-Bain. Reproductions were created in St. Petersburg specifically for the project. The organizing team tried to do everything possible to ensure that they matched the originals as closely as possible - the image was applied to a primed canvas using a unique technology, observing color nuances and preserving the texture of the painterly stroke. For this purpose, up to 40 precise photographs of each work were taken.

An educational project is not only a meeting place with art, but also a meeting place with history. After all, the presented works can be “read” and clearly seen only through the prism historical facts from the life of the country, turning points her stories. If the viewer is not familiar with them, the paintings are silent and keep their secrets. The task of the “Meeting Places with Art” team is to give the key to understanding historically important works and the opportunity to see them with fresh eyes, outside of boring templates and stereotypes.

The best students of the Institute of Arts of the Moscow Pedagogical State University, future professionals in the field of culture, will conduct interactive excursions using materials prepared by ROSIZO specialists. At the exhibitions, video lectures will be shown daily, recorded for the project by art historians of the Russian Museum, in order to immerse the viewer in the socio-historical context of the creation of works.

Young participants of the project - teenagers 10-12 and 13-15 years old - will again enjoy the interregional drawing competition “My Picture”. For both age groups a unique master class program has been developed: children are asked to write a short essay explaining future picture, and then convey your story as artistic image. The finalists, as last year, will go to thematic sessions at the Artek International Children's Center, and the result of the competition will be an exhibition of the winning projects in Moscow.

The large-scale project “A Meeting Place with Art” has been supported by Russian Post for the second year.

20.10.2016 Educational project"A meeting place for art"

On October 20, 2016, a large-scale all-Russian project “A meeting place with art” is launched in Yalta. It is organized by the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation and the State Museum and Exhibition Center "ROSIZO" with the participation of the Russian Museum, Moscow Pedagogical State University, the Institute of Art Education and Cultural Studies of the Russian Academy of Education and the Russian Post. For nine months, starting in April, residents of 29 small and medium-sized cities in Russia are getting acquainted with reproductions of the most significant works artists of the 20-40s of the twentieth century. Yalta is already the twenty-fourth city of this project A.

The goal of the “Meeting Place with Art” project is to use the example of Soviet fine art to teach residents of the most remote cities of Russia, from Yalta to Komsomolsk-on-Amur, to “read” and understand the works of artists, to talk about their work in an accessible language.

The mobile fund includes reproductions of textbook paintings by Soviet masters: “ Morning exercises"(1932) and "Razdolie" (1944) by Alexander Deineka, "After the Battle" (1923) and "Spring" (1935) by Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin, "Letter from the Front" (1947) by Alexander Laktionov, "Alexander Nevsky" (1942 ) Pavel Korin, “Women Radio Operators” (1930) by Maria Bri-Bain. These works can be classified into four sections. “History” includes replicas of paintings from the first half of the twentieth century, revealing the theme of heroic modernity or recent events - revolution, civil war; section dedicated to the theme of the Great Patriotic War, shows iconic images of people created during this period and familiar from the legendary military exhibitions of 1942-1943; the third is dedicated to the working man; fourth - rest.

For visitors to the project, leading specialists from ROSIZO and the Russian Museum, together with students from Moscow State Pedagogical University, prepared an educational program. Free interactive excursions, adapted for schoolchildren and students, pensioners and children from orphanages, teach you to understand the artistic issues of the 1920-1940s, analyze the features of style and plot, color and composition, interpret various details in context key events era and personality of the artist, feel the mood of the time, find secret meanings in scenes of military heroism, labor feats, sporting achievements and solitary serenity.

On excursions from the best students of MPGU - future teachers of fine arts - visitors learn that Marshal Voroshilov was a close friend of Isaac Brodsky and offered the artist a completely unheroic subject for his own portrait - skiing in the forest near Moscow, Mikhail Grekov found a sufficient portion of optimism, light and freshness for the painting “Trumpeters of the First Horse” in the air of the Crimean spring, and Pyotr Konchalovsky caused terrible scandal, having painted a portrait of Alexei Tolstoy, - during the heyday of “proletarian culture”, he risked emphasizing the connection of the “red count” with the classics pre-revolutionary Russia, placing a rare vodka bottle on the hero’s table, marked with the date “1799” - the year of Pushkin’s birth.

As part of the project, residents of Yalta will be shown video lectures about works of art 20-40s of the twentieth century from specialists of the Russian Museum.

Young participants of the project - teenagers 10-12 and 13-15 years old - will be invited to an interregional drawing competition “My Picture”. For both age groups, MPGU specialists have developed a unique program of master classes: children are asked to write a short essay - an explanation of the future painting, and then convey their story in the form of an artistic image. “As part of the competition, we help to master basic skills: how to make a painting “speak” and the viewer to “hear” exactly what the artist intended,” says Lyudmila Maltseva, author of the master classes.

The finalists will go to an exhibition in Moscow in December. The result of the competition will be an exhibition of the winning projects, which will also feature drawings by children of the 19th century.

The large-scale project is supported by the federal postal operator - Russian Post. The length of the route is more than 45 thousand kilometers; the transportation process involves 20 railway cars and more than 35 cars to deliver work to the regions of Russia, the total weight of which will be more than one and a half tons.

Project period:

The project operates from October 20 to November 7, 2016 from 10:00 to 19:00 from Tuesday to Sunday, closed on Monday (except November 7, 2016)

Admission to the exhibition, excursions and lectures is free.
