Oh yeah. Absolutely.

But I mean not our answer ... - By the way, and "Parizhachi" is not very bad.
And what else will be in France from our shows. I heard that in the fall of some current projects planned. ... and all that it?

Yes, like preparing exhibition of contemporary Russian art. I understand that it will be in the Louvre, but somewhere in the basement. Selection of works, sort of, engaged Mr. Mindlin of the NCCA and his comrades, but maybe I'm confusing something

Parisian gallery owner Benoit Sapiro (gallery "Minotaur") is preparing an exhibition "Russian foreign", also in the fall. The room had already received, fights over funding.

Yesterday at the gallery "Russian world" (it opened quite recently, the hosts Russian) opened an exhibition Wali Kropyvnyts'ke. I have not turned to go, but tomorrow will try to get photos and make photos, but some very angry seagull

And that's what I said about the exhibition "Holy Russia" Director of the Louvre, Henri Loyrette: "If Russian art, from the time of Peter the Great, known to many, the art of preceding centuries, exciting and controversial - not everyone. All this luxury, affluence - that's what we want our audience discovered.
For this project, we prepared a few years ago. From the moment I came to the Louvre, my desire was that the museum paid more attention to Russian, Byzantine and Slavic art, which, for historical reasons, too little known. And, unfortunately, very poorly represented in the collections of French public museums.
When the idea of this exhibition, I have several times visited Russia, together with the Yannick Durand, Chief Commissioner of the exhibition with the French side. We met with colleagues from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novgorod, Vladimir, Suzdal, which discussed how the organization of the exhibition itself, and the issues of providing products.
For me, the Year of Russia and France - it is also a good opportunity to finally come to the project, which I am particularly close. It is about creating the Louvre a new section on Christian art of the East, including the Byzantine and Slavic empires.
This exhibition - is a telling example of successful cooperation with the Russian museum structures. And add that the work was in both directions, as in Russia, our country and, in particular, the Louvre will be presented, for example, through the exhibition "Napoleon and the Louvre, which will be held at the State Historical Museum. And from September 20 to December 10 this year already in the Tretyakov Gallery, you will visit our exhibit "Artists-travelers, 1550-1850: Figure from the collection of the Louvre." We want not only to strengthen the existing friendly relations, but also to establish long term cooperation. As if all the planned activities can be viewed only as a temporary phenomenon in nature, our interest in Russia is constant and is not confined to only this year. "

"Seeing Russia the way it was before Peter I, wanted the French themselves.
"One billion euro - this is the insurable value of the exhibits brought from Russia to France."
"For the French, this exhibition - a great opportunity to break their stereotypes about Russia, because here are accustomed to judge us mostly by post-Petrine period. It is time for France to learn and understand what "Holy Russia".

"In reflecting on the past Russia, evaluating its present and thinking about its prospects, we have a strange way belittle the importance of the Soviet period of national history. Most of it seems: there was an episode in our lives - and passed, and we - once again the Great Russia, Holy Russia again. But in fact Russia Bolshevism - no more, no less - wiped off the face of the earth. Traditions almost millennial spiritual, cultural and social development of our fatherland in the Soviet era were not just broken, and the roots uprooted and cruelty, which has no parallel in history, destroyed. Bolshevism, in the words Shalamova, mortally molested soul of the Russian people, his best qualities were deliberately and cynically reduced to zero, and the worst - cultivated to the maximum extent. Historical Russia - not as a state, but as a spiritual, cultural and national tradition - perished on the fields of the Civil War, and its fragments for many years remained in exile. We live in a completely different country ... "Peter Meshcherins.

Here are some fragments of the national spiritual and cultural traditions of some people trying to gather and connect. Thanks for that. So there is hope.

"We live in a different country ..." I suggest everyone look stunning documentary about the post-Soviet and modern Russian reality, what you have never seen, under the title "Honor of robbers" ("L'honneur de brigands"). This film was first shown 11 May 2010 on the French ARTE program and will be on site only until Wednesday. Hurry to see! http://plus7.arte.tv/fr/1697660, CmC...= 3162194.html
I am not able, unfortunately, to see this movie on May 11. I did not know what he was. Just today I received a link to it from a truly Russian Orthodox priest who genuinely suffer and pray for Russia. It shows the result of the fact that Russia did (ie, rape). Then there is the art ... Yes, something to think about ... After watching the movie, (I - in shock. What frankness criminals!) I hasten to share what he saw everyone, and especially to those who cherish the true Russia.
