Sacked director of the Ministry of Culture NHMU accused of lying and fraud. 06.04.2012 12:56


Freed from the post of director of the National Art Museum Anatoliy Melnik calls false arguments of the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine on his release.

Anatoly Melnyk
All the arguments that led the ministry - a lie, said in a comment A.Melnik UNIAN. "It is true that I demanded to return all works of art from government offices and corridors and other public institutions. Since this is a bad practice: no one is looking after them all and then have to restore, and even worse - they just disappear, "- said on.Po him, the first lie of the ministry - that the release was" in agreement with the parties. " "There is a real fraud" - says A.Melnik.
"They talk about the plan ... The museum can not talk about the plan. First, the museum must meet their responsibilities. It must be adequately equipped. We have repeatedly stated that the museum can not operate when the temperature is 8-10 degrees in the winter and summer - almost 40. The Ministry is not listened to it. On the contrary - blaming me. Understand that the temperature difference does not depend on the director of the museum and not from the researchers. It depends on the heating system. So the minister can not blame anyone if it is not joined to it "- said A.Melnik.
He recalled that a year ago, the President issued a decree on the reconstruction of the National Museum. However, the Minister Mikhail Kulinyak never invited A.Melnika about it. "That is, he has violated the decree of the President," - says A.Melnik.
Moreover, he said, since 2008, the museum is not funded, except for salaries, utilities, fees and protection.
"In 2011, gave two million hryvnia. We spend it on the fire alarm, as sitting "on a powder keg." And the climate would do, but the money - it's pennies compared to what is necessary. We can not in such a way to solve a local problem of the whole. The museum needs a complete renovation. It is also noted in the decree of the President. Relatively injuries iconography - a lie. All 12 icons were restored. If damage has occurred, it was due to an imperfect system of heating, because of which the museum abrupt changes in temperature. Again, note that I have repeatedly reported by. We wrote about this a lot of letters "- told A.Melnik.
According to him, the Ministry of Culture is a simple "anomaly." "They were invited to posts of responsibility is absolutely unprofessional people. I have a general impression that they are far from the culture. Instead of culture involved in politics. That's all I can say is, "- said A.Melnik.
As UNIAN reported earlier, A.Melnik reported that on April 5 at his office in the museum came to the minister of culture M.Kulinyak with three officials of the ministry and read the order for his dismissal of the Director of the National Art Museum of Ukraine. The order for release, according to A.Melnika, using the phrase "with the consent of the parties", although the museum's director, as he explained, did not give such consent, and any documents regarding this did not sign. "About a month ago, the Minister of Culture issued a reprimand me for any flaws there - said A.Melnik. - However, later withdrew the reprimand, realizing his mistake. "
Answering the question of UNIAN with which binds A.Melnik sudden dismissal, he admitted that the reason may be that Natsmuzey once again openly stated about the disappearance of paintings in the Cabinet.
Previously published material UNIAN "The Cabinet wound up painting a thief" and "How to steal a picture in the Cabinet."
After the first publication in the government offices there were still pictures, but only two of the four: "The fishing farm" in 1952 and "Sail on the Sea" 1951. On the "Dnipro Vistas" 1937 and "village by the river," 1951, museum staff, both then and now say they are "false." Currently, about two forgeries is examined by a special commission, the results of which promise to make public soon.
Today, April 6, Ministry of Culture announced that A.Melnika released from the post of Director General of the National Art Museum of Ukraine for non-museum of the main targets.

At the present time with respect to two fraud examination is being conducted by a special commission, the results of which promise to make public soon.

According to the results of chemical examination of paintings Glushchenko "Dneprovskie gave" and "village by the river" are copies.


 As reported by the Ministry of Culture ZN.UA, according to the results of chemical examination of "picture Glushchenko" Dneprovskie gave "and" village by the river "are copies." Here is what is contained in the report of experts (verbatim): "The nature of the zinc lyumіnestsentsії bіlila have farbovomu sharі and takozh stupіn visihannya farbovogo ball vsіh vіdіbranih samples vіdpovіdayut painting stvorenomu storіchchі in the XXI" (The character of the luminescence of zinc oxide in the ink layer, as well as the degree of drying sloyavseh colorful painting of the samples correspond written in the 21st Century). These findings confirm and style, that is a visual examination. Some critics have suggested that copies of paintings Glushchenko performed within 5-10 years.

 When asked ZN.UA «what will follow after such sensational results of the examination?" Culture Minister Mikhail Kulinyak said: «followed by subsequent actions of law enforcement. When were these fakes? At what stage they are in the Cabinet - from the National Museum? Who are the leaders of the National Museum and officials involved in this outrageous stories? Again, these issues are no longer the minister of culture, but only to the investigation. "

 In turn, the Ministry of Culture has prepared a decree that all the national museums must submit a report regarding the availability of emergency and conservation of paintings, which are transferred from the museum collections to other institutions.

When he was Yuscha, they would also open the Arsenal and there to collect from the whole of Ukraine the most valuable and interesting, and most importantly a gallery of "national heroes" who have earned the Ukraine ...

Asked what it was Tatiana Mironov has been appointed Acting CEO of the museum, the Minister said: "Indeed, the most common practice in such cases - the appointment of acting chief curator of the museum. But even when the chief curator Julia Miller Litvinets wrote a statement for release. Therefore, to assign it, we could not. However, after the release of Anatoly Litvinets still remained to work in a museum. As for Tatiana Mironova, it is - my advisor. And it gives me a reason to be confident that any sudden moves to personnel of the tender and appointment of new CEO, it will not do, this I assure you. "

The Minister said that in the near future will be finalized arrangements for the competition. "This practice in our country is new. There are a variety of issues, such as the right to implement this procedure. But the fundamental decision is made, and we are implementing.

For the competition to create the commission, which included government officials, museum professionals, critics and representatives of independent civil society organizations. The composition of this committee is on the website the Ministry of Culture. It is very important that this competition was held as transparently as possible, so it was really competitive, were presented to the concept of the museum.

Perhaps a short time in such contests - contests for the post of the key leaders of museums - will be able to take part by foreign experts, as it opened in Europe. At the moment, I hope that the competition will be attended by people from Kiev, and from the regional museums, art history circles. I think that Anatoly Melnyk could take part in this competition. We expect that competition will take place throughout the month and for 18 May - International Museum Day - National Museum of Art will be the new director. "



P.S. Minister Kulinyak contradicts himself, first he said that Miller brought the museum to handle, then it Miller could take part in the contest for directorship.

Meanwhile, Tatiana Mironova galeristka settles in his old office, where zhget candles, leads the new deputy.

Public zamylivaetsya Galazov creating a commission of people controlled by the Ministry of competition for a place Director Nat. Museum.
