Rally for Tannhauser, “Novosibirsk for creative freedom” – Kurer.Sreda.Berdsk

32685 Rally for Tannhauser,

The organizers hope that the rally will visit the 2500

April 5 at 15.00 on Lenin Square will be held rally “Novosibirsk for creative freedom».

For several years, Novosibirsk lives under the sign of radical orthodoxy, which leads to a polarization of public sentiment. Many are beginning to see each other as enemies – and this is very alarming phenomenon. Increased craving for Complaints cultural events to the authorities, there was cruelty to music fans and theater audiences. The public is alarmed by the situation around Novosibirsk pursuit of art, such as exhibitions of contemporary art, rock concerts, performances of “Tannhauser” NGATOiB, «KILL» NGADT “Red Torch”, “Song of the homeland” theater company “Gamma».

The organizers of the rally Stas Zaharkin Irina Irina Fomin and Popovskaya believe that certain groups of citizens must not express opinions of all residents of the city or the country and expect that the rally will visit 2,500. “Performance” Tannhauser “was visited by more than seven thousand people, which is significantly higher than the number of participants in demonstrations against the play. However, the decision about the fate of “Tannhauser” was taken without taking into account the views of the audience and the theater community “- say the organizers.

The agenda of the meeting:
1. Creative freedom and censorship
We believe that the withdrawal from the repertoire NGATOiB opera “Tannhauser” and dismiss theater director Boris Mezdricha – a demonstrative step that creates a dangerous precedent for further censorship nationwide. The use of Article 148 of the Criminal Code as a tool of censorship is absolutely unacceptable, and this article should be processed in accordance with the principle of legal certainty.

2. Ministry of Culture and NGATOiB
The expert community appreciated the performance of “Tannhauser” and Boris Mezdricha activities as director of the theater. The court found no corpus delicti in his actions, the decision of the court is not in dispute. The decision of the Ministry of Culture of the appointment to the post of Director NGATOiB man with a dubious reputation and interests of a narrow circle of people compels us to demand the resignation of Vladimir Medina, as well as the resignation of Vladimir Kehmana.

3. Church and state
We express dismay at the fact that the position of the Ministry of Culture is one-sided and based only on the arguments of the radical part of the ROC. We are concerned about the methods that are used to protect their interests, this radical part – radicalization and the fringes of the church movements and organizations. Social dialogue, which we hope to initiate this rally can not take place in an environment where religious activists use methods unacceptable to secular ethics and morality are inconsistent with the principles of law, expressed utter contempt for society and opponents and incite hatred, religious and ethnic strife .

The resolution on the results of the meeting will be sent to the President of the Russian Federation.
At the rally will perform poet Gennady Prashkevich, actor Vladimir Lemeshonok, musician Roman Joiner, representatives of creative and scientific environment and business in Novosibirsk. The rally will attend a special trip to attend the events Archdeacon Andrei Kuraev.

upcoming events appeals to the participants of the meeting of prominent cultural and public figures of Russia. Among them, directed by Andrei Zvyagintsev, journalist Sergei Parkhomenko, journalist Alexander Archangel, TV host Tatyana Lazareva, directed by Kirill Serebrennikov, theater critic Marina Davydova.
