Notes

An excerpt characterizing the People's Artist of the Russian Federation

I remember how at one time (during the reign of Andropov), when I was already a young woman, it was strictly forbidden for men to wear long hair, which was considered a “capitalist provocation” and (however wild it may sound today!) The police got the right to detain right on the street and forcibly cut people wearing long hair. This happened after one young guy (his name was Kalanta) set himself on fire in the central square of Kaunas, the second largest city in Lithuania (this is where my parents were already working). It was his protest against the suppression of individual freedom, which then frightened the communist leadership, and it took "increased measures" to combat "terrorism", among which were the most stupid "measures" that only increased the discontent of the normal people living in the Republic of Lithuania at that time of people...
My dad, as a freelance artist, which, having changed his profession several times during this time, he then appeared, came to party meetings with long hair (which, to be fair, he had just gorgeous!), which infuriated his party bosses, and for the third time he was thrown out of the party, into which, after some time, again, against his will, he “hit” back ... I myself witnessed this, and when I asked dad why he constantly “runs into trouble," he calmly replied:
This is my life and it belongs to me. And only I am responsible for how I want to live it. And no one on this earth has the right to forcibly impose on me beliefs that I do not believe and do not want to believe, because I consider them a lie.
This is how I remember my father. And it was precisely this conviction of his in his full right to his own life that helped me survive thousands of times in the most difficult life circumstances for me. He madly, somehow even manic, loved life! And, nevertheless, he would never have agreed to do meanness, even if his very life would depend on it.
So, on the one hand, fighting for their “freedom”, and on the other hand, writing beautiful poems and dreaming of “exploits” (until his death, my dad was an incorrigible romantic in his soul!), the days of young Vasily Seregin passed in Lithuania .. who still had no idea who he really was, and, apart from the "biting" actions on the part of the local "authorities", was an almost completely happy young man. He didn’t have a “lady of the heart” yet, which, probably, could be explained by fully loaded days with work or the absence of that “only and real” that dad has not yet been able to find ...
But finally, fate apparently decided that it was enough for him to “bachelor” and turned the wheel of his life in the direction of “feminine charm”, which turned out to be the “real and only one” that dad so stubbornly waited for.

Her name was Anna (or in Lithuanian - She), and she turned out to be the sister of my father's best friend at that time, Jonas (in Russian - Ivan) Zhukauskas, to whom on that "fatal" day my father was invited to Easter breakfast. Dad visited his friend several times, but, by a strange whim of fate, he has not yet crossed paths with his sister. And he certainly did not expect that on this spring Easter morning there would be such a stunning surprise waiting for him ...
The door was opened to him by a brown-eyed, black-haired girl who, in that one short moment, managed to win daddy's romantic heart for the rest of his life...

Star
Snow and cold where I was born
Blue lakes, in the land where you grew up ...
I fell in love with an asterisk as a boy,
Light as early dew.
Maybe in the days of grief-bad weather,
Telling her girlish dreams
Like your one-year-old girlfriend
Loved the star and you? ..
Was it raining, was there a blizzard in the field,
Late evenings with you
Knowing nothing about each other
We love our star.
She was the best in heaven
Brighter than all, brighter and clearer...
Whatever I do, wherever I am,
Never forgot about her.
Everywhere her light is radiant
Warmed my blood with hope.
Young, pristine and pure
I gave you all my love...
The star sang songs about you,
Day and night, she called me into the distance ...
And on a spring evening, in April,
Brought to your window.
I gently took you by the shoulders
And he said, without hiding a smile:
“So I didn’t wait for this meeting in vain,
My beloved star...

Mom was completely subdued by dad's poems ... And he wrote a lot of them to her and brought them to her work every day along with huge posters drawn by his own hand (dad drew superbly), which he unfolded right on her desktop, and on which , among all kinds of painted flowers, it was written in large letters: “Annushka, my little star, I love you!”. Naturally, what woman could endure this for a long time and not give up? .. They no longer parted ... Using every free minute to spend it together, as if someone could take it away from them. Together they went to the cinema, to dances (which they both loved very much), walked in the charming Alytus city park, until one fine day they decided that enough dates were enough and that it was time to take a look at life a little more seriously. They soon got married. But only my father's friend (my mother's younger brother) Jonas knew about this, since neither from my mother's side, nor from my father's relatives, this union did not cause much enthusiasm ... My mother's parents predicted for her a rich neighbor-teacher, who they really liked and, according to their concept, my mother “suited” perfectly, and in my father’s family at that time there was no time for marriage, since grandfather was put in prison at that time, as an “accomplice of the noble” (which, for sure, they tried to “break” the stubbornly resisting dad), and my grandmother went to the hospital from a nervous shock and was very sick. Dad was left with his little brother in his arms and now had to manage the entire household alone, which was very difficult, since the Seryogins at that time lived in a large two-story house (in which I later lived), with a huge old garden around. And, of course, such an economy required good care ...
So three long months passed, and my dad and mom, already married, were still going on dates, until mom accidentally went to dad’s house one day and found a very touching picture there ... Dad stood in the kitchen in front of the stove and looked unhappy “replenished” the hopelessly growing number of pots of semolina porridge, which at that moment was cooking for his little brother. But for some reason, the "harmful" porridge for some reason became more and more, and poor dad could not understand what was happening ... Mom, struggling to hide her smile so as not to offend the unlucky "cook", rolled up her sleeves right there began to put in order all this “stagnant domestic mess”, starting with completely occupied, “porridge stuffed” pots, an indignantly hissing stove ... helplessness, and decided to immediately move to this territory, which was still completely alien and unfamiliar to her ... And although it was not very easy for her at that time either - she worked at the post office (to support herself), and in the evenings went to occupations for passing examinations in medical school.

Not all actors, singers and musicians receive the title of Honored Artist. To become one, you need to go a long thorny path, where troubles, obstacles will come across, there will be people who will not mind putting a spoke in the wheels of a talented person, even if he is their friend and colleague. But there is no need to give up, you need to work long and hard. And then the reward and recognition will find you.

Who is entitled to the title?

The honorary status is assigned to persons working in the field of cinema, variety art, theater, ballet, workers in the music and circus fields, as well as radio and television workers, and so on. A person applying for the title of "Honored Artist" must work 20 years or more and achieve public recognition.

How is it possible to receive a state award?

In 2010, a special decree issued by the President of the Russian Federation was issued stating that this high title is awarded to an employee only when he has worked in the field of art for more than 20 years. But that's not all. The candidate for the title must have any awards or promotions (diplomas, certificates, grants) issued by federal or state authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. This means that the future honored artist of the theater, cinema, etc. will receive the title due to him only upon reaching the age of 38, provided that the person began working in various creative teams from the age of 18.

Of course, just 20 years of work in the cinema or theater to get the status of an honored artist is not enough. It is necessary to make a great contribution to art or its development, for example, to make a film that will become popular, to play successfully in many performances, to achieve fame and recognition of one's name. If the future honored artist meets all of the above requirements, you can safely apply for the title. But before you write an appeal, you need to draw up a petition for an award. This is usually done by the director or head of the institution where the talented employee works, or his team. In other words, at the place of permanent work of a person. If, for some reason, the future honored artist does not work anywhere, then the petition is drawn up where he was active in the field of arts.

What is the difference between an honored artist and a folk artist? What title is preferred?

It is more difficult to become a people's artist than a well-deserved one. This does not mean that getting the status of the second is easier than a lung. You have to work hard. To receive the title of "Honored Artist of Russia", you need to work for the benefit of art for at least 20 years. For those who have chosen ballet as their specialty, this period is reduced to 10 years. But to become a people's artist, you need to work another 10 years after receiving the title of honored. For those who practice ballet dancing, the time is again reduced to 5 years.

Summing up, we can say that to the question of which title is better - honored or people's artist, one can confidently answer that it is better to be second. However, they cannot become until the status of the first is obtained.

Special privileges in the USSR

Of course, this is not the only difference in titles. A people's artist is now entitled to more privileges and awards than a well-deserved one. If the second in the days of the USSR, when traveling on tour, was given a place in a compartment and a shabby hotel room, then the first was given more honors. The car stood out no lower than the sleeping one, and the place where the actor was located was chic. In addition, folk artists received and receive a good salary increase, vouchers to a sanatorium, and earlier, when going to a performance and leaving it, an art worker was given a car that drove and brought him back and forth. Now this privilege, unfortunately, has been canceled.

Honored Artists of Russia

Singer Leonid Agutin got into the honorary lists of recognized artists. He is the son of a musician and teacher, followed in the footsteps of his father and studied at a music school at the age of six. Then he graduated from the Moscow jazz school, served in the army, and then seriously took up the career of a singer and musician. His award found an addressee in 2008.

The singer Tatyana Bulanova also has this status. Although her relatives are not at all connected with music, like Leonid Agutin (Tatyana's father graduated from the Naval Academy, and her mother was a photographer), the girl showed a love for music from childhood. And although the singer still decided to show off her talent on stage. The beginning of her career, or debut, took place in 1990, and after 14 years she received the title of "Honored Artist".

Mark of distinction

The awarded person will receive not only a certificate, but also a special badge. It is made of silver and has a very beautiful and unusual shape. The award looks like an oval wreath, which is obtained with the help of two crossed tree branches - oak and laurel. At the bottom of the award there is a beautiful bow, and at the top - the state emblem. In the center, right on the wreath, there is an inscription that reads: "Honored Artist". There is a pin on the back of the badge so that it can be attached to a jacket. Traditionally, this is done on the right side of the chest.

Summing up

This award, which was carefully considered in the article, is difficult to obtain, but possible. It should only be remembered that not a single achievement will be obtained if one does not make titanic efforts and does not devote oneself to achieving the cherished goal. It's not for nothing that they say that dreams do come true. All it takes is a strong desire. And then the title will not be just a name.

The President of the Russian Federation issues a decree conferring the honorary title "People's Artist of the Russian Federation" once a year on the eve of the celebration of Cultural Worker's Day (March 25). Title history

Story

For the first time the honorary title "People's Artist of the Republic" was established by the Soviet government in 1919. Among the first people's artists were: composer A. K. Glazunov, singers F. I. Chaliapin and L. V. Sobinov. In the USSR, from 1936 to 1991, the highest honorary title following the highest republican title was "People's Artist of the USSR".

After the collapse of the USSR, the name of the state was changed from "Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic" to "Russian Federation". In the names of all honorary titles, the old name of the state "RSFSR" was replaced by the "Russian Federation". Until March 30, 1996, instead of the title "People's Artist of the RSFSR", the honorary title "People's Artist of the Russian Federation" was awarded with the corresponding inscriptions on the badges.

In 1995, honorary titles were re-established with new badges by decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 1341 to replace the honorary titles established when the republic was part of the USSR.

The honorary title "People's Artist of the Russian Federation" was established by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of December 30, 1995 No. 1341 "On the establishment of honorary titles of the Russian Federation, the approval of regulations on honorary titles and a description of the badge for honorary titles of the Russian Federation." The same decree approved the original Regulations on the honorary title, which stated:

The honorary title "People's Artist of the Russian Federation" is awarded no earlier than five years after the award of the honorary title "Honored Artist of the Russian Federation" or "Honored Artist of the Russian Federation" to artists, directors, choreographers, conductors, choirmasters, musical performers who created highly artistic images, performances, films, television performances, television films, concert, variety, circus programs, musical, television and radio works that have made an outstanding contribution to the national artistic culture and have received wide public recognition.

In its present form, the Regulations on the honorary title were approved by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of September 7, 2010 No. 1099 “On measures to improve the state award system of the Russian Federation”.

Chest sign

The breastplate has a uniform for honorary titles of the Russian Federation form 40 mm high and 30 mm wide and is made of silver. It has the shape of an oval wreath formed by laurel and oak branches. The ends of the branches crossed at the bottom are tied with a bow. On the top of the wreath is the State Emblem of the Russian Federation. On the front side, in the central part, a cartouche with an inscription - the name of the honorary title - is superimposed on the wreath.

On the reverse side there is a pin for attaching the badge to clothing. The badge is worn on the right side of the chest.

On TV we often hear "Honored Artist of Russia", "People's Artist of Russia". What do these titles mean? What privileges and benefits are due to the holders of these titles? How is the work of the honored and the people evaluated? Let's figure it out.

The title of "Honored Artist": the nuances of the award

The title of honored is awarded for special achievements in such arts as circus, theater, cinema, ballet, music, etc. The owner of the award can be either a performer (for example, an actor or a singer) or hold some responsible position (for example, a director or playwright). To receive an award, you must:

  • make a personal contribution to the development of Russian culture and art;
  • to participate in the creation of works that were highly appreciated both by the public and by critics and experts.
  • take an active part in significant cultural events - concerts, performances;
  • promote the spread of Russian culture outside the country;
  • participate in projects that adequately represent Russia at international festivals;
  • to be recognized and loved by the people as a cultural worker.

Honorary titles are given to representatives of creative professions who have state-level awards in the industry. Previously, awards were given only after twenty years of successful creative activity. The only exceptions were ballet dancers. They received titles after a dozen years of work on stage. These deadlines are currently not met.

What is the title "People's" for?

The title of "People's" is an order of magnitude higher than the title of "Honored". It is also issued for special merits in the field of national culture and art. It is awarded only after the master of the stage has worked for at least ten years after receiving the title of honored.

Both titles are state and are awarded on the basis of the relevant decree of the President of the country.

The procedure for awarding this state award is regulated by Presidential Decree No. 1099 of September 7, 2010.

How to get a reward?

A star needs to have connections in order to receive an award. Any organization petitions for the award of the title: a trade union, a theater, a cinema studio. Then the applicants are considered by a commission specially designed for these purposes under the Ministry of Culture of Russia. The committee currently consists of thirty-four members. The commission includes many well-known cultural figures, such as Nikita Mikhalkov or Zurab Tsereteli.

Each candidate for a high rank is considered separately. Materials are being studied that can give an idea of ​​the talent of the artist:

  • excerpts from films;
  • videos;
  • recordings of concerts or performances;
  • text materials.

The Council meets once a year. About one hundred candidates can be considered for one meeting. The decision is made by voting, the vast majority - refusals. The committee recommends approximately ten people for approval. The final decision rests with the employees of the Ministry of Culture.

The selection criteria are not always clear. The council rarely tells why this or that artist was denied. Sometimes the reasons become known and they are sometimes absurd. For example, one famous actor was denied the title only because he had not paid a traffic fine.

Who didn't get the title?

Many prominent and truly talented people do not receive a title for decades. For example, Mikhail Zhvanetsky, well-known throughout the country, was awarded the title of national only at the age of eighty. Some well-known and honored by Russians stars do not wait for state-level awards. Vladimir Vysotsky did not wait for the title of the people, and received the “deserved” title only after his death.

Nowadays, many actors, singers and other celebrities beloved by the people do not have any honorary awards. These include Ivan Okhlobystin (star of the series "Interns") or Alexander Baluev ("Peacemaker", "Hero", "Turkish Gambit"). Some celebrities themselves reject awards. For example, they wanted to award the title of people's title to Leonid Yarmolnik, bypassing the well-deserved one. The famous theater and film actor refused.

How is the award going?

Titles are issued in the very heart of Moscow - the Kremlin, in the Dome Hall. The ceremony is scheduled before the professional holiday of cultural workers (March 25). Before the award, the artists are called from the presidential administration and informed about the need to come at the set time. You must arrive in formal attire: a black suit and tie. Artists get to the place of awarding on their own.

What are the benefits for "People's Artists"?

During the Soviet Union, the artist first received the title of honored, and after at least ten years he was awarded the title of people. The holders of these titles had special privileges: they were paid a double pension, they were taken to and from the performance on the then elite black Volga. They were given additional meters of living space, served in elite medical institutions, settled in luxury hotel rooms. Now there is none of that.

Today, having the titles of "Honored" and "People's" is simply an honor. The title practically does not change anything in the life of an artist, celebrities do not receive any special benefits.

How are star salaries calculated?

The legislation of Russia does not specify how much representatives of creative professions with the title "People's" or "Honored" should receive. Celebrities receive such earnings, prescribed in their contract with the theater, film studio or television channel. There is no single tariff for all. The income of the stage masters depends on many nuances - on the place of work, the number of performances, etc. The existing titles can also be taken into account in the accruals, but this remains at the discretion of the employer. For example, titled artists living in the capital are entitled to incentive bonuses to their basic salary. According to the order of the Moscow Department of Culture No. 963 dated November 26, 2014, additional payments are:

  • 15% of the salary for the title of "Honored Artist";
  • 20% of the salary for the title of "People's Artist".

Retirement of famous artists

All pensioners in Russia have almost the same pension. According to the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper, even artists who had huge popularity, albums were sold in millions of copies, and films are dearly loved by the people, receive ridiculous money.

For example, when the Primadonna of the Russian stage retired in 2004, she was assigned only two thousand rubles. Now, thanks to indexation, this figure has grown to 10,000 rubles. Iosif Kobzon receives even less - about four thousand rubles. Such a low pension is due to the fact that he is a deputy and he is paid a salary. When he leaves his post, Kobzon's pension will increase.

Valery Leontiev receives a "high" pension compared to the rest - about eight thousand rubles. This is due to the fact that the celebrity is listed as a ballet dancer. They always get more.

Many famous artists live from the income from the money that was earned at the peak of their popularity. Some successful representatives of creative professions do not even spend their penny pension, but transfer money to charity. For example, Lev Leshchenko and Vladimir Vinokurov provide financial support to the orphanage. The rest of the artists, even after the onset of retirement age, are forced to work.

Table. The size of the pensions of famous artists (according to the cultural figures themselves and their relatives).

Star namePension amount
Joseph Kobzon4 thousand 300 rubles
Edita Piekha7 thousand rubles
Vladimir Vinokur8.5 thousand rubles
Ilya Reznik10 thousand rubles
Yuri Antonov11 thousand rubles
Lev Leshchenko12 thousand rubles
Stanislav Sadalsky15 thousand rubles
Valentin Gaft15 thousand rubles
Sofia Rotaru4.5 thousand rubles
Tatyana Dogileva9 thousand rubles

Many celebrities live in poverty. According to producer Isaakov, pride does not allow some artists to report their plight. Artists simply cannot survive on a beggarly pension, so many continue to work. Stanislav Sadalsky works as a presenter. To retire 11 thousand to lead a decent life in Moscow is unrealistic. Churikova, Basilashvili, Kostolevsky continue to play in the theater and cinema. Edita Piekha still takes part in various concerts.

Some artists, due to life circumstances or medical reasons, cannot work. Such celebrities include Alexander Pankratov-Cherny.

Famous artists receive a beggarly pension. Some worked for 30-40 years, they were known and loved by the whole country. Many believe that people who have made such a significant contribution to Russian culture should receive a much higher pension or personal benefits. For example, Alla Pugacheva at one time brought huge incomes. She collected full houses, her albums were sold in millions of copies. On the other hand, you don’t have to worry about Alla Borisovna’s financial situation. Her fortune is about 100 million rubles.

There is also an opinion that artists have a small but fair pension. Now all pensioners receive about the same. And popularity should not affect the income of a pensioner. After all, the glory and love of the people is a gift in itself.
