What gives the title of people's artist. Honored Artist or Folk: What is higher by rank

If the regalia distributed the people, the list that was incorporated in 55 years of 1006 names, would be more

At the end of August, the next decree of the President of the Russian Federation was published on the assignment of the title "Honored Artist of Russia". In the creative and district environment and, of course, a stormy discussion flared up in social networks: who is worthy who is not very, who and why not given. And in the end, everyone agreed together, that now "now" the title is not at all that "then."

What meant the Title Artist of the Country Title in Soviet times, and for what principles, he was awarded - about it in the material website.

Controlled Elite Stalin

The title of "People's Artist of the USSR" replaced the title of "People's Artist of the Republic", which existed since 1919. Joseph Stalin He loved art, as well as the principle of "divide and conquer" and fairly believed that the creation of a selected creative elite would help him manage the intelligentsia from which you never know what to expect.

It is not known how much the assignment of the title was delivered by its 13 laureates. So, Konstantin Stanislavsky, one of the leaders of Mkhat, in 1936, already seriously ill, laid all the forces to ensure that the art theater is not finally court. A, former royal officer, subsequently a student Evgenia VakhtangovSurely played other roles no worse than the roles LeninaFor which he also complained to high rank.

How to go through the stairs without a railing

It was very difficult to get the highest in the creative environment right up to 1991. The Soviet Union had a very branched administrative division, and first it was necessary to become a well-deserved artist of the Union or Autonomous Republic.

Someone had to be patched, give impetus to the collection of documents, then it was necessary to pass numerous instances. And guess where you get involved on this staircase, it was impossible. Nationality could prevent or help, the partyhood also did not matter, for example, the People's Artists of the USSR Maya Plisetskaya, Yuri Yakovlev And many others did not consist in the CPSU.

Popularity and relevance also were also not decisive conditions, it is enough to name the name Vladimir Vysotskywho died in 42 years without all sorts. Not sowing any "opposition" songs ingenious actor Oleg Dal. Died at 39 years. It mourned the whole country and was surprised that the distance, it turns out, even "not deserved."


Oleg Dahl in the film "Vacation in September", 1979

After the well-deserved, it was necessary to get a "folk" some of the republics, and only then the title of the People's Artist of the USSR was appropriated. But, as in each rule, there were their exceptions here.

When the age of the role does not play

It was implapically believed that the rank of the People's Artist of the Republic could be born to the 40th anniversary, and above - only to the seventh dozen.

But even in the very first list of folk artists of the USSR, a 24-year-old Kazakh opera singer Kulyash Bayseitova. A year later, this title was received by her peer from the Uzbek SSR Khalima Nasyrov.

In 1973, the honorary title was honored with a 31-year-old singer from Azerbaijan, for many years she became the "golden voice" of the USSR.

When Joseph Stalin saw the movie " Taras Shevchenko"I demanded immediately assign the title of people's artist of the country 32-year Sergey Bondarchuk, Bypass the entire system.

There was a completely curious case, which eventually turned into a joke. Say that when Brezhnev hinted that it was time to give the title of Honored Artist Radastic to the Peoples of the Far North Cola Beldathinking about something Leonid Ilyich He stated: "It is necessary to earn a deserved, let it be more likely!"

Representatives of the court culture immediately fulfilled the assignment of the Secretary General, and the cola of the Belda became a popular artist, bypassing the stage of deserved.

Long-term path to recognition

Most often, artists with decades went to the rank of folk, sometimes literally dying on this path. So nationwide darling died just a few days before receiving this title, and loved to joke actress Rin green died on April 1, 1991, right on the day of signing the relevant decree.

Despite the fact that there was a tight indication not to assign the title of folk artists of the USSR at all elderly artists, 18 representatives of the art of art received it at the age of 80 or more.

Stanislav Lyudkevich in the 50s.

The title of deserved artist receives far from all actors, singers and musicians. To become them, you need to go a long thorny path, where the troubles will come across, obstacles, there will be people who will not be off will put a talented man's sticks in the wheels, 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 themselves will find you.

Who is the title?

Honorary status is assigned to persons working on the field of cinema, pop, theater, ballet, workers in the musical and circus sphere, as well as radio workers and television and so on. A person applying to the title "Honored Artist" must work out 20 years or more and achieve public recognition.

How can I get a state award?

In 2010, a special decree issued by the President of the Russian Federation was released that this high title was awarded to the employee only when he operates in the field of art for more than 20 years. But that's not all. The candidate for title should have any awards or promotions (diplomas, diplomas, grants) issued by federal bodies 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 only on the achievement of 38 years of age, provided that the person began to work in various creative teams from 18 years.

Of course, it was just 20 years old to work in a movie or the theater to obtain a little deserved artist. It is necessary to make a great contribution to art or its development, for example, to make a film that will be popular, to play with success in a variety of performances, achieve fame and recognition of your name. If the future honored artist complies with all the above requirements, one can boldly apply for the title. But before you write an appeal, you need to make a petition for award. It usually does the director or head of the institution where a talented employee works, or his team. In other words, at the place of permanent work of man. If for some reason the future honored artist does not work anywhere, then the petition is drawn up where he conducted active activities in the field of art.

What did the Honored Artist differ from the folk? What is the title of preferred?

People's artist is more complicated than deserved. This does not mean that the status of the second is easier than the lung. You need to work hard. To get the title "Honored Artist of Russia", it is necessary to work for the benefit of art at least 20 years. For those who choose the ballet with their specialty, this period is reduced to 10 years. But to become a people's artist, it is necessary to work out another 10 years after receiving the title of deserved. For those who are engaged in ballet dances, time is again reduced to 5 years.

Summing up, we can say that the question of what the title is better - a well-deserved or folk artist, you can confidently answer that it is better to be second. However, they can not be used until the status of the first is obtained.

Special privileges in the USSR

Of course, this is not the only difference in titles. The people's artist now has more privileges and awards than deserved. If the second during the time of the USSR, when traveling on tour was laid in the coupe and the bedroom number in the hotel, then the first honors were laid more. The car stand out at least the bedroom, and the place where the actor was located was chic. In addition, the folk artists received and get a good increase to the salary, vouchers in the sanatorium, and earlier, when sent to the performance and descent, an art worker was laid from it, which drove and brought it back and forth. Now this privilege, unfortunately, canceled.

Honored Artists of Russia

Singer Leonid Agutin came to the honorary lists of recognized artists of art. He is the son of a musician and a teacher, went in the footsteps of the Father and has already studied at the music school for six years. Then he graduated from the Moscow jazz school, served in the army, and then seriously took care of a singer's career and a musician. His reward found a recipient in 2008.

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

Mark of distinction

Awarded person will receive not only a certificate and also a special breastplate. It is made of silver and has a very beautiful and unusual form. It looks award as an oval wreath, which is obtained using two crossed tree branches - oak and laurel. Below the awards there is a beautiful bow, and at the top is the state coat of arms. In the center, right on the wreath, there is an inscription, which says: "Honored Artist". On the turn of the sign there is a pin, in order for it to be attached to the jacket. By tradition, this is done on the right side of the chest.

Summing up

This award, which was closely considered in the article, is difficult to obtain, but maybe. It should only be remembered that no achievement is received if you do not attach titanic efforts and do not devote yourself to achieving the cherished goal. But it is not for nothing in vain that dreams come true. Just only strong desire. And then the title will not be only the title.

Who and how decides, to be or not to be a star "deserved" and "People", found out the site.

In March of this year, the Ministry of Culture of Russia still approved the candidacy of the musician Nikolai Noscova to receive the title "Honored Artist of the Russian Federation." True, a month before from there the refusal came. What changed? And how do artists get titles - according to merit or for money?

Documents returned due to the fine traffic police

Unfortunately, in our country, obtaining awards depends on the links and from the petition of influential people. And the Kolya never asked anyone anyone and will not ask, "said Sergey Trofimov (Trofim), says to the" interlocutor ". - We on the Internet posted a petition in support of Nikolai Noscova and collected more than five thousand signatures. In parallel, they turned to the union of the pop figures so that they put forward Nikolai's candidacy for the title. Once they put forward me on a well-deserved artist. True, this view broke out somewhere in the "cultural" cabinets for more than three years. I am glad that with the second attempt, but the title of socks was still assigned. Who, how not to him, be deserved?!

Recently, this is such a sick question, and I am glad that you are raising it, "said Senior Consultant of the Guild of Actors Union Cinematographers of Russia Valery Ghushchina. - Who is awarded today and who are assigned to the title? How do you choose? Unclear! Artist of Cinema Igor Petrenko, who starred in more than 50 films, cannot receive deserved for several years, although he is a winner of the Russian State Prize. Recently refused to be the rank of people's excellent artist Mikhail Zhigalov, who all his life gave the theater and cinema. The main thing - we do not even report the motivation of failures. Somehow returned documents of one artist, who has 96 roles in movies. It turns out that he has not been paid for the traffic police at 230 rubles! And how many documents should be collected! For example, obliged to be a certificate from the tax. Well, what does this have to do with the talent of the artist?!

Who paid for Baskov?

An organization should be submitted to the title or award of the artist: theater, film studio, professional union, and so on. And considers the candidacy Special Expert Council under the Ministry of Culture. Today in its composition 34 people.

Chairmanship of the Minister Vladimir Midage once a year is collected (on a voluntary basis, that is, free) to solve the fate of the artists directors of Nikita Mikhalkov and Vladimir Khotyinenko, President of the Academy of Arts Zurab Tsereteli, writer Yuri Polyakov, composer Alexey Rybnikov and other cultural figures. Every candidacy is discussed separately, the presented documents submitted (articles, video footage - records of gear, excerpts from films, performances, concerts). Then vote. It happens, for one meeting you have to consider up to a hundred people. From this number, the Council may recommend to approve a person ten. Every year - in different ways. And the final decision is made by officials of the Ministry of Culture. Moreover, the selection criteria are not always obvious.

As the source in the ministry told the "interlocutor", for a long time they did not approve the title of People's Artist of Russia Satirik Mikhail Zhvanetsky. Mikhal Mikhalycha's respected and favorite public was represented by the rank in different years different organizations - from Moskoncert to the Estrada Theater, but the People's Zhvanetsky became only the eve of his 80th anniversary. But suspiciously early, the same title was presented by singer Nikolai Baskov - at that time he was 33 years old. It is said that this is due to the former Chairman of the State Duma, Politics Gennady Seleznev. Say, he so favor Baskov, who shouted the word for him. There are other rumors that the title of Nikolai bought his producer, entrepreneur and father of the ex-wife singer Boris Spiegel. But in the Ministry of Culture they assure that it is impossible to buy a title or the award.

We have it categorically excluded, - indignant in a conversation with the "interlocutor" an employee of the department. - Although I can assume that this is possible somewhere at another stage: for example, to pay someone in an organization that represents a person. But I think that it is not easy there to do it. Our advice tries to consider every candidacy objectively.

Previously, all this was a lot of time, not as now, - tells the CT speaker, People's Artist of Russia Anna Shatilova. - At first they gave the lowest title - deserved. Then it should have passed for many years before you could submit to the folk. So many documents had to be collected, meets different commissions! My candidacy was considered six years. I had two creative characteristics: from the People's Artist of the USSR Speaker Radio Yuri Levitan and from the People's Artist of the USSR Choreographer Igor Moiseeva. I have not hoped. But once in 1988 they called from the Kremlin and said that you need to be on the same day at 15:00. I could not because of work. Then I was invited to present to the Ministry of Culture, but I could not again. In the end, I was given a certificate and icon in the television center "Ostankino".

Craft averages

Previously, the People's Artists of the USSR provided additional meters of living space, service in elite polyclinics and sanatoriums, the hotel room has a hotel room and tickets to St., as well as a black "Volga" on the performance and after play. In addition, they paid a double pension.

Now there are no special benefits from artists with titles. Exception - living in Moscow, they pay 30 thousand rubles every month, "Valery Ghushchina continues. - But this innovation was introduced this year and is unknown, whether the admissions will remain in the following. As soon as the deserved and folk began to pay this amount, artists reached into the guild to us with a request, even the requirement to put them on the title. They say: "This money would have helped me now!" We are trying to help somehow, but I repeat, not always happens. But look at our pop young pop div. Through one - deserved and folk. Who rewards them and on what basis?!

Indeed, for example, Natasha Korolev became deserved in 29 years, while some stated on the perturbation: "I have nothing to be ashamed!" Diana Gurtzaya The same title received in 28. For comparison: the pop "Empress" Irina Allegrova became deserved to his 50th anniversary. And although today the titles of artists by and large do not bring anything to anything (it is unlikely that the same queen in its concert fees is in dire need of additional 30 thousand), after all it is prestigious. After all, it is so nice to write in big letters on the billboard or declare from the scene: "He advocated a well-deserved (folk) artist ..." to blind the average man.

History of the question

In 1896, five people from the troupe of the Alexandrinsky Theater were the first "Honored Artists of His Majesty of Imperial Theaters". Also one of the first it was the title of Ballerina Matilda Kshesinskaya. In 1918, the title was officially annulled. And a year later, another - "People's Artist of the Republic" appeared. The first was awarded Fyodor Shalyapin (in the photo). In 1931, this title was changed to the "People's Artist of the RSFSR". Then the "Honored Artist of the RSFSR" appeared. This title is awarded those who worked in the field of art for at least 10 years.

In 1936, Joseph Stalin signed a decree to assign a new title "People's Artist of the USSR". The first of him received Artists Mkhat. In 1991, with the collapse of the Soviet Union, this title ceased to exist. Total people's artists of the USSR were 1006 people. Alla Pugacheva and Oleg Yankovsky received his last. Today, 146 people live in the country. In the whole story, the oldest People's Artist of the USSR became the 31-year-old Muslim Magomayev.

People's Artist of the USSR Igor Kirillov: I care of butter. Sometimes - with caviar

The most expensive in the Soviet Union The title of Central Television Speaker Igor Kirillov received in 1988.

Lord, who needs this title now?! - Igor Leonidovich exclaimed in a conversation with the "Interlocutor". - Everything has already passed! And the Soviet Union has long been not. I still have the title of "People's Artist of the RSFSR" and the republic is no longer there. The title, of course, honorable. But on odd days is just like that. Today we have an odd day? So today I am a simple normal pensioner. Outwalk. Unfortunately.

- And it was not strange that the television dictator was awarded such a prestigious, but still the acting rank?

Well, before me, the title of the People's USSR was already received by the Speakers of Radio Yuri Levitan with Olga Vysotskaya, and the CT speaker Valentina Leontiev. I'm not the first in this case. You know, nothing special in my life has not changed this fact. Who I was, the topics remained. Quietly in the rank, but with gratitude. And the benefits that they say so much, there was no. In any case, I did not use them. The car was his own, drove over 60 years. And in the domestic plan I did not have much and it was necessary, only work.

- Now your title does not give anything?

Well, 30 thousand rubles began to add to retirement. This is the initiative of the mayor of Moscow Sergei Sobyanin. Therefore, I am a bread with butter. And sometimes even with caviar.

Victor Merezhko: I arrived in the Kremlin on the subway

As a rule, we give titles and awards in the Kremlin before any holiday - the day of Russia, the day of the Constitution, New Year. The celebration takes place in the Catherine Hall of the Kremlin Palace.


// Photo: Global Look Press

I was called from the presidential administration and invited such a number in so much to come to the Kremlin to get a reward, "says" Interlocutor "Dramaturgogram Viktor Merezhko, who four years ago became a popular artist of the Russian Federation. - There was a recommendation to wear a black suit and a tie, which, by the way, I do not wear life in life. I remember, I asked my neighbor Arkady Inin to tie him, as I do not know how. I did not offer the car. I went to the subway. In the Kremlin came through the Spasskaya Tower.

For about an hour we were kept in some kind of pre-tribades, then launched into the hall. There on every chair lay papers with surnames. The president we waited for about half an hour. A lot of people said in five minutes, thanked the homeland and the president. It was for all tiring. Therefore, I just went out, received a reward, said Thank you and sat down. It did not go to the tribune, although no one forbade me. After the ceremony made glasses with champagne. A crush formed around the president, everyone wanted to be closer to him. I did not sweep the elbows of people, somehow indecent. He drank champagne and went to the subway.

Folk without quotes

It happens that the artists beloved by the people do not receive any title. For example, Vladimir Vysotsky or Oleg Dal. And this is understandable: Is it possible to imagine that the USSR Ministry of Culture could seriously discuss the reward of Buntar Vysotsky?! Although he still became deserved, posthumously. Yes, and today, many famous artists have no title. Alexander Baluyev, Lyubov Tolkalina, Ivan Okhlobystin, Anna Ardova, Victoria Tolstoganova ...

Some artists themselves refuse the ranks. For example, the leader of the DDT group Yuri Shevchuk did not want to receive the People's Russian Federation, because he was offended that this title he would receive after the ten years herself. Such rules. But Leonid, the Yarmolnik at one time offered to jump well-deserved and get people right away. But he also refused.


// Photo: Global Look Press

I am deeply convinced that the artist should know by name and in the person, "Leonid's interlocutor expresses his opinion. - The title of folk is impairment, it is almost already at all, although they are not Ulyanov, not Evstigneev, not Yakovlev, not Efremov and so on. Or even easier and clearer: Imagine - People's Artist USA Jack Nicholson, Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino ...

It remained without the title of people's and famous Athos - Veniamin Stukhov, who worked for many years in the theater on Taganka.

We, young, at one time presented to the title, - recalls Veniamin Borisovich. - Then they recalled because we were next to the Opt director Yuri Lyubimov. Then they wanted to give again. And now it is time when not necessary. After all, if a person comes, whom you do not know, with a statement: "I am a people's artist Golopupkin," you are unlikely to begin to treat him. Ecclesiast says: "Good name is more expensive than a call to the table." Therefore, when people with high height hinted, and not me, and my wife Galina, that she would have to be honestly said: "He will not talk to you."

Who else?

In different years, for various reasons, the awards and ranks also refused: Actor Alexey Delotchenko, from the title of Honored Artist of the Russian Federation, Writer Yuri Bondarev and Artist Vakhtang Kikabidze from the Order of Friendship, musician Konstantin Kinchev from the medal "Defender of Free Russia", writer Alexander Solzhenitsyn from the Holy Order Andrei First Called ...

The material came out in the publishing house "Interlocutor" No. 12-2018.

One of the types of state recognition of merit to the public among others is honorary titles. The honorary titles of the Russian Federation refer to the system of state awards and differences between the Russian Federation.

12/30/1995 by the President of the Russian Federation B.N. Heltsin was signed by Decree No. 1341 "On the establishment of honorary titles" instead of the previously operating honorary ranch of the RFUP. This decree establishes 54 ranks, among which in the list under No. 1-Multi artist of the Russian Federation.

The title of People's Artist of Russia is the highest honorary title for achievements in the field of art. This title can be assigned to employees of the theater and circus, music and pop art workers, representatives of cinema, all whose public contribution to the prosperity of the art of the Russian Federation was rated and widely recognized as a public and professional community. The title of People's Artist may be assigned to representatives of such professions as artists, conductor, playwrights, composers, directors, music performers, etc.

The title "People's Artist" is assigned on the eve of an employee of a culture, which is celebrated on March 25 annually on the basis of the decree of the President of the country once a year.

The progenitor of the current title of "People's Artist of the Russian Federation" was the title of "People's Artist of the Republic", approved by the Government in 1919. The first carriers of this title were F. Shaliapin, L. Sobinov and A.Lazunov. The title "People's Artist of the RSFSR" was assigned since 1931. And from 1936 to 1991, more higher than the title "People's Artist of the RSFSR" was "People's Artist of the USSR". After the collapse of the Soviet Union, small transformations underwent a name: the word "RSFSR" was replaced by the words "Russian Federation".

Since 1995, the title of "People's" was assigned to nominees already having the title of "Honored Artist of the Russian Federation" or "Honored Deedor of the Russian Federation", but not earlier than ten years after the previous title was assigned.

The title "People's Artist of the Russian Federation" was supported by the presentation of the breastplate. The honorary sign in its view is one for all honorary rank of Russia. The size of the icon is 30 mm by 40 mm. Made of silver-based alloys. Oval shape framed by branches of oak and laurels bonded at the bottom of the ribbon. At the top of the Order - the coat of arms of Russia. In the center of the sign is the inscription - "People's Artist". The reverse side of the sign is equipped with a pin, the sign on the chest is fastened.
