Famous Russian gallerist Marat Gelman yet opened in Perm several controversial exhibitions held within the festival "White Nights" and closed by local officials. Among them - the exhibition of Krasnoyarsk artist Vasily Slonova Welcome! Sochi-2014, dedicated to the upcoming Winter Olympics in Sochi, Israeli collective exhibition "New Barbizon" and a display of Stone Sergei "The Russian Baroque."

"Half an hour later Slonova exhibition," New Barbizon "and Stone opened. Officials must understand that censorship is not only illegal and counterproductive, but also impossible today. Skeptics may be ashamed, the incident is over, the festival continued," - M. Gelman wrote in his blog .

It became known yesterday that closed after criticism of the government of the Perm edge exhibition will run at new sites, in particular in the museum PERMM in the independent cultural center "boatman."

Recall that S.Kamennogo exhibition "Russian Baroque" was closed on June 6 because her photos were submitted to the Moscow rally. They were replaced by the works of Israeli art group "New Barbizon" which, however, also lost the opportunity to be represented at the festival "White Nights" - on one of the stands of the artist wrote the words of support and V.Slonovu declared inadmissibility of censorship.

Closing of the exhibition Welcome! Sochi-2014, which occurred two days earlier, caused an even greater resonance. Angry "Cheburashka" V.Slonova exposing the processes that accompany the organization of the Olympic Games in Sochi, did not like the local officials.

According to the most V.Slonova, "project Welcome! Sochi-2014 is designed to promote the brand of the Winter Olympics in Sochi in Europe, America and the rest abroad."

"Taking aim at the audience you want us, it is important to take into account these cultural perceptions of our country, to form a democratic media, Hollywood and the whole of Western mass culture. Moreover, such a" cranberry "approach degrades, disarms and gets to work on brand Sochi- 2014 all obscurantist and energy Russophobe Western creative community ", - the Krasnoyarsk artist.

However, officials believe that "Russophobic" are just that it works. "Russophobian demonstrations," the senator called them from Perm arya Andrei Klimov, who took the opportunity to compare V.Slonova with Goebbels. State Duma deputy Grigory Kuranov said about "a derogatory attitude towards the success of our country." Similar rhetoric adheres to his colleague Alex gun.

Chairman of the Government of the Perm region Gennady Tushnolobov in an interview with "Kommersant" said the exhibition was closed on his initiative. "The exhibition Basil Slonova really shut down after my visit, because this show is not worthy to be in the Perm region. Though she drove many regions and all remained silent," - said the regional prime minister.

M. Gelman considers closing shows part of the campaign against the governor of Perm region Viktor Basargin. "After we run over by the governor. Inexperienced people in the administration give in to this pressure," - he said. Speech by the Minister of Culture of the regional Gladnev Igor, who also criticized the exhibition Welcome! Sochi-2014, gallery owner called demagogy, similar to the rhetoric of Soviet power. In this case, the very head of the region, "Cheburashka" is also not pleased.

"The scandalous exhibition about Sochi does the concept of celebration of the city did not fit. Views of those whom this story is not indifferent to the polar divided. Someone laughed, others rebelled, seeing in this humiliation of Russia, symbols of the Olympic Games. Personally to me the idea for this exhibition absolutely do not like "- said V.Basargin.

In an interview with BBC BBC V.Slonov said that Permian officials have not contacted him to report the closing of the exhibition. "It speaks to their inexperience, they lack judgment. I will not bump into conspiracy theories: it is possible, here came together people of different motivations. Time will put everything in its place. Apparently, the officials have failed in their emotions" - summed up artist.

Acting Minister of Culture of the Perm Territory Igor Gladnev fired director KGAU " Modern Art Museum " (museum PERMM) Marat Gelman , said " Russian Planet " referring to the agency Ura.ru.
How to write agency Ura.ru, June 18th governor decided to prepare a festival "White Nights 2014 " without the participation of Marat Gelman to check the expenditure of budgetary funds allocated for the event.
" The other day, Gelman promised good news from Perm. Really good news : Gelman fired , the contract with him terminated . Expulsion took place ," - wrote in microblogging head of the Duma Committee on Foreign Affairs Alexei gun.

Yes, very good news!

Cattle triumphs :

Do not worry you so Cyril.
Such as Gelman, do not drown.
)

Why do you consider this good news?

If your question is not provocative , it is idle, in other words, is rhetorical.
My answer is this : I think that Gelman as a public figure , no longer profitable (most harmful ) even their ideological and ideological allies. As a kind of socio- political unit , it has run its course . Persona non grata.

Question normal, I would say the line.

And here's the answer - nothing.

In my Gelman performed a miracle in a particular town - has created a museum which tells the whole country.
Try again.

And took it off for the exhibition "Sochi ..", well the last straw, apparently.

"Russian Povera" and shown as part of the 3rd Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art in Milan, so this museum is known for, and in the world.
