  • Glitter Text
    All That Glitters – Spark and Dazzle from the Permananent Collection co-curated by Janine LeBlanc and Roger Manley Randy and Susan Woodson Gallery January 23 – July 12, 2020 Through the ages, every human society has demonstrated a fascination with shiny objects. Necklaces made of glossy marine snail shells have been dated back nearly 135,000 years, while shiny crystals have been found in prehistoric burials, suggesting the allure they once held for their original owners. The pageantry of nearly every religion has long been enhanced by dazzling displays, from the gilded statues of Buddhist temples and the gleaming mosaics of Muslim mosques and Byzantine churches, to the bejeweled altarpieces and reliquaries of Gothic cathedrals. As both kings and gods, Hawaiian and Andean royalty alike donned garments entirely covered with brilliant feathers to proclaim their significance, while their counterparts in other cultures wore crowns of gold and gems. High status and desirability have always been signaled by the transformative effects of reflected light. Recent research indicates that our brains may be hard-wired to associate glossy surfaces with water (tinyurl.com/glossy-as-water). If so, the impulse drawing us toward them may have evolved as a survival mechanism. There may also be subconscious associations with other survival necessities. Gold has been linked to fire or the sun, the source of heat, light, and plant growth. The glitter of beads or sequins may evoke nighttime stars needed for finding one’s way. The flash of jewels may recall an instinctive association with eyes. In jungles as well as open grasslands, both prey and predator can be so well camouflaged that only the glint of an eye might reveal a lurking presence.

But St. Petersburg’s three centuries have matured its material authenticity, recognizable tableaux and unique urban narratives, chiefly the Petersburg Text. The three of these, intertwined in their formation and development, created a distinctive place-identity. The aura arising from this distinctiveness functioned as a marketable code not only for St. Petersburg’s heritage industry, but also for a future-oriented engagement with post-Soviet hypercapitalism. Reflecting on both up-to-date scholarship and the actual cityscapes themselves, my dissertation will focus on the imaginative landscapes in the historic center of St.

Это представило новые возможности для международных деловых отношений, и известные компании, такие как датская Бурмэйстер энд Вэйн (В&W), Восточно-Азиатская Компания (EAC) и Компания Грэйт Норсерн Телеграф (GNT) открыли офисы в России и внесли свой вклад в развитие страны. Большое количество скандинавов выехало на Восток в поисках своей удачи в растущей деловой жизни и промышленности России. Среди многочисленных путешественников возникало сильное увлечение культурой страны, что привело к созданию высококачественных коллекций русского искусства. Именно по этой причине сегодня в Скандинавии так много предметов русского антиквариата, некоторые из которых будут выставлены на этом аукционе. Самые значимые из них будут ещё до аукциона выставлены в посольстве Дании в Лондоне во время «Недели Русского Искусства». Для более подробной информации смотри страницу 9. Изюминкой аукциона, без сомнения, станет Русская коллекция Ричарда Зейнера-Хенриксена, норвежского коммерческого атташе.

    Russian Folk Art as Souvenirs Every person traveling around the world often questions: “what would be a good souvenirs to bring back home?” Now, of course your child is a best thing that you get from the country, but there are always things that you would like to give to your relatives and friends once you are back home. Here are several suggestions and historical background on some of most famous Russian Folk gifts that you can choose as souvenirs. Souvenirs that would be unique, beautiful and useful. You will be amazed with the variety of choice… Hohloma Hohloma wood painting is a unique ancient Russian folk craft. The birth-place of Hohloma is the forest area of Nizhny Novgorod region to the north-east of the river Volga. Hohloma is the name of a big village on the left bank of the Volga. From the earliest times masters who lived in that region made amazingly beautiful woodenware, and in the 17th century hohloma painting art was formed as a folk art phenomenon. The craft has gained world fame due to its original technique and the beauty of traditional Russian decorative patterns. Turned or carved with special chisels, articles made of limewood, are primed with clay, coated with "olifa" (boiled linseed oil), and then with powdered aluminium. After being silvered in this way, the objects are painted with refractory oil colours and then lacquered several times and tempered in ovens. The heat of 1000 makes the varnish yellow, turning "the silver" into "gold" and softening the bright colours of the painted ornament with an even golden tone.

  • 190000, Russia, Saint Petersburg, Admiralteysky Canal Embankment, 2
    St Petersburg, 11 December 2018 PRESS-RELEASE THE NEW YEAR HOLIDAYS AT NEW HOLLAND ISLAND 25 December 2018 – 8 January 2019 From 25 December to 8 January there will be a New Year Market in the courtyard of the Bottle on New Holland Island, with 14 stalls selling festive food, treats and gifts located around a central, 8-metre high Christmas Tree. The Bottle’s ground-floor residents will also be serving seasonal food and drink on two additional temporary stalls. The courtyard will be decked out with patio-heaters and chairs, and from 15 to 31 December there will be a Christmas Tree market open next to the Bottle’s main entrance. This year there will be a New Year Post service on the charity stall, which will allow anyone to leave a gift for others who have fallen on hard times, and who need just the very basic things in life – care and support. Gifts will be collected for the homeless charity Nochlezhka, for the Anton's right here foundation, the regional branch of Age and Joy, the Warm Home foundation, the Mother and Child charity project and the Centre for the Social Rehabilitation of Disabled Adults and Children in the Vyborg region. The gifts will be delivered by volunteers. The whole of New Holland Island has been spruced up for the opening of the New Year Market: a third huge Nutcracker toy-soldier has been added to the two currently standing guard over the entrance to the Bottle, with the new arrival looking on from the direction of the Foundry.

  • Russian As a Native Language"
    E3S Web of Conferences 210, 18107 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202021018107 ITSE-2020 Reflection of the national linguistic world view in the school course "Russian as a native language" Tatiana Voiteleva1,* 1Moscow Region State University, 10A Radio str., 105005, Moscow, Russia Abstract. The article is devoted to the problem of reflection of the national linguistic world view in the school course "Russian as a native language". The purpose of the study is to characterize the content of the school course of the Russian language, which contributes to the formation of the concept of the native language as a spiritual, moral and cultural value of the nation. The main issues of the content of the Russian as a native language course, reflecting the national linguistic world view, are defined and described. It is noted that the content aspect of education is distinguished by the strengthening of the value orientation of education. 1 Introduction Modern pedagogy involves an axiological approach, the basis of which is the individual as an important value of society and the purpose of social development. From this perspective, education is a combination of moral, cultural and ethical orientations of a person who is able to adapt, which is, on the one hand, a means of transmission of culture, and on the other hand, contributes to the formation of a new culture. Basing on the interaction between education and culture, students form the perceptual unity of the surrounding reality. The approach, in which the main attention is paid to the development of values of material and spiritual culture, predetermined the transition from a knowledge- centered learning paradigm to a culture-congruent one and the establishment of a culturological orientation in teaching the Russian language.
