I do not want anyone offend, but takes its time. Why do we need the Union of circus figures, if no active dvizhuhi there and do not close, the young artists wanted to spit on him, real power, power, authority at the state level – we do not see anything? The Soviet Union ended, well, how shall sit on the chests with mold? Emil Kio – Chairman STSDR – a smart man, understood everything, resigned. We want to raise the genre – it is necessary to roll up our sleeves and work; and I hope that at the upcoming Union board will be elected the new chairman.

What is the creative union? It should bring people together, to be the guild support, generator of ideas, a defender of artists. Today – it is a sad depressnyak unknown why do we need. It is clear that when listing candidates for the chair, the very first called the name of Edgard Zapashny. Because he was not in the chair will sit, puffing out his cheeks, and immediately start a positive process as it is everywhere, how Zapashny touches

-. Edgard, you stand as a candidate ?

– It depends on when the board will meet circus figures. Because it is there to vote for certain candidates. I know that this is not in the interest of the team to carry out Kio board as soon as possible; they are engaged in the processing of the electorate (which is mostly the elderly), so that they voted for their candidate. My position is simple: if I feel that I support, it will set its candidacy

– If not

– Then I will initiate the nomination of several.? figures among the most prominent figures of the circus – that Maxim Nikulin, Yuri Kuklachev, Anatoly Marczewski, Taisiya Kornilov – all of them operating (important!) professionals who are on the point of attack …

– And not retired …

– That’s it. Every day they come to the circus, have information; these are people with serious names, major publicity included in the rooms is very high. They will definitely be taking officials – which is very important for decision-making

-. The main thing is to finally suffered a re-branding of the body to the Union did not remind pet cemetery …

– I am convinced that circus workers Union should throw all their forces to consolidate the circus community, to the board of representatives from all the existing structures of the circus, including – but it never happened! – Owners of private marquees, which are many in Russia, but this segment is, and his interests should be considered. Although any tent work better, some worse. This is the first. Second, the Union must always protect the interests of His Majesty Actor (well, circus personnel in the broadest sense). And then, sorry, when the Russian State Circus performers were layoffs, chairman of the Union suddenly he took the side guide circus company, which is unacceptable. If mass layoffs – it’s probably the problem is not the artists and management. Where is the logic

-? Well, do not forget about the promotion of circus arts …

– Of course, and in this way the work of the Union of circus figures can not be seen in any way. Here again it is important to be in contact with the highest authorities of the country that shows us the Filmmakers Union, the Union of theatrical figures, but not circus union that even the Minister of Culture has never met, not to mention the president. It’s all wrong, it does not benefit the entire industry; and in the words of Vladimir Medina, in the case of a serious ideological renovation of the Union, it is ready to cooperate with him in close operation, helping to promote large projects, embossing serious money, and so on

-. Projects – the most important thing .

– the Union – public creative organization, with emphasis on the word “creativity”, which the Union is not involved in many, many years, carrying out some small inconspicuous festivals in incomprehensible form. And that was not even in the shadows and in the dark. As a result, artists were disappointed in the Union, no longer for him to handle, see that it is absolutely unnecessary organization which knowingly takes state building

-. So when the terms must pass board ?

– The fact of the matter is that they are specifically tighten the situation, wanting to hold it in October, and not the fact that they did not outsource and then. I believe that the Board should be prepared immediately after the election of the General Director of Russian State Circus Company (and the elections scheduled for 24 August). Wrap anything no longer makes sense. It’s not about waiting for.
