"ArtChronika will litigate warning Roskomnadzora
 

September 27, 2010 the Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Communications (Roskomnadzor) reported reprimand the magazine "ArtChronika" in connection with violation of Article 4 of the RF Law "On Mass Media".
Warning "ArtChronika" issued for publication in the number 4 (April) for the year 2010 two reproductions of the exhibits show "Caution, Religion!" 2003 and "Forbidden Art 2006" 2007. The basis for the warning Roskomnadzor calls "the use of media to carry out extremist activity" because, according to the official statement of departments, exhibits these exhibitions received by believers as incitement to religious hatred. "
In both cases we are talking about the works of classics of social art Alexander Kosolapov, whose works are in collections in thirty museums, including the Tretyakov Gallery, Russian Museum, Vienna's Albertina Museum and the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York. The works of Alexander Kosolapov exhibited at numerous exhibitions in Russia and abroad, including such high-profile projects as the exhibition "Moscow-Berlin. Berlin-Moscow "at the State Historical Museum," Russian Pop Art "and" Sots Art. Political Art in Russia "at the Tretyakov Gallery, the" thaw "in Russian Museum.
The main theme of the April issue of the journal ArtChronika "was formulated as" Art on the altar. Contemporary artist goes to church. " Room was dedicated to the discovery of the first in Russian history, contemporary art exhibitions in the current Orthodox Church - Church of St. Tatiana in Moscow and was devoted to the possibility of a dialogue between the church and secular artists. One of the marked Roskomnadzora illustrations - the kind of the exhibition "Caution, Religion!" In the Sakharov Centre in Moscow - was placed in a historical compilation of the most notorious scandals of ecclesiastical art, covering the period from the Renaissance to the present day. This material was designed to demonstrate how over time, changing perceptions of how the arts should be construed subject of religion. In particular, in this review were included textbook works of Vasily Perov, Vasily Vereshchagin and Nikolai Ge, when something caused the disapproval of church authorities.
Other noted Roskomnadzora illustration, the work of "Icon-caviar" is indeed featured in the exhibition "Forbidden Art 2006". It was published a few months before the court found the organizers guilty of "inciting religious hatred" (the sentence was handed down in July). As far as we know ArtChronika, the court could not bear the special resolutions to ban the publication of reproductions of the exhibits.
The editors of ArtChronika "intends to appeal the decision Roskomnadzora in court as prescribed by law.

Dear Konstantin, Vladimir (Chief editor of site), by Alexander Kosolapov can be displayed on site ARTinvestment.RU or his work has been "outlawed"? Felt in 1937 at the yard ...

Yes, God knows what year ... Vaughn and Luzhkov, in a letter to Medvedev complained that lawlessness. And his wife and some of his compassionate pity. I'm on TV saw a woman is straight, with tears in his eyes and said: - I am sorry for Luzhkov Baturina, so suffer.
And grief castles in Austria continue to buy.
Cry and buy, and what to do?

Times harsh, savage manners.
Eugene, that suggest?

Alexander Kosolapov: "I feel personally offended"
 

Igor Chuvilin.Gazeta GZT.RU.09.10.2005

The other day one of the exhibits, "Russian Pop Art", held in the Tretyakov Gallery, by order of the director of the museum was removed from the exposure. The reason was the letter signed by the parish church of St. Nicholas in Zayaitskom. By their own admission, the work of artist Alexander Kosolapov, called "Icon-caviar", "excites the authors of this letter, social and religious hatred and enmity." The artist, in turn, wrote a protest letter to the director Valentin Rodionov THG and answered questions from Igor Chuvilin.

- What do you think happened?

- I'm in his letter said that this was an unprecedented fact in the history museum of world importance. And because such Tretyakov Museum. A similar case could not happen in the Guggenheim or the MoMA, in any other place. There is also a social aspect: the planned line, which is not a pluralistic society, not liberal, not a dialogue of intellectual groups - the work simply removed by a hail of religious groups trying to exert control over cultural institutions. For me, totally alien and unacceptable position, when some group sets the ideological format of one idea or an opinion. All of this has been in the twentieth century, I would not want to repeat the twenty-first.
There is also a comic side to this case. Exactly the same work now hangs in Belgium, and the exhibition opened Putin. Hence, a museum in Antwerp, he took the job in its exposition, the president opened, and the director of the Tretyakov Gallery closes. If I as an artist defend the colors of Russia in the Guggenheim, or in European museums, it turns out that there is a person that Russia wants to have, and what she really is.
Plus, I feel personally insulted by this action. As an artist and citizen.

What can I offer? Must do by editing the site since 2008, all that is associated with the actual art to remove .. keep only the social realism (I reported this to you two years ago wrote ...)...( joke).

Liked it .. a good story for the actual artists ..

This is you bend, until the arrival on the relevance of religious bias.
But the hope that they will now not before.
For Moscow to be fighting.

Ruin my wish?
Eugene, which I annoy you so?
:eek:

These clerics and their henchmen anything the 17th year is not taught.

Narvutsya they fork a second time, will not find it.

But now you understand in what art should be investing, I warn you, too.
:D

dedulya37, recently walking in the Tretyakov Gallery, finally saw a live performance of your father. Impression - strong. Already noticed that a picture can not convey all that is in a good picture, and vice versa often improves bad. If your dad is once again confirmed. Pictures sharply attract attention: the color, volume and God knows what. Initially stopped, then looked up the author and gasped, already on the forum saw perevidel, but there is not really seen before. But this quality of work is not on the market.
I do not spread these photos before, because I see that much easier then that is alive.
