Biography Vladimir
The actor, artist and author of “Folk performances” 3. The glory of the poet came to him after meeting the avant -garde, when the first works of the young author were enthusiastic about David Burliuk. He also wrote to newspapers, released a magazine, shot films, created plays and staged performances on them. Russian futurism Vladimir Mayakovsky was born in Georgia in the year.
His father served as a forestry in the village of Baghdadi, later the family moved to Kutaisi. Here, the future poet studied at the gymnasium and took drawing lessons: the only Kutaisian artist Sergei Krasnukha was engaged with him for free. When the wave of the first Russian revolution reached Georgia, Mayakovsky - as a child - first participated in rallies. His sister Lyudmila Mayakovskaya recalled: “The revolutionary struggle of the masses also influenced Volodya and Olya.
The Caucasus experienced the revolution especially sharply. There everyone was involved in the struggle, and everyone was divided into participating in the revolution, which definitely sympathized with her and hostile. ” In the year, when Vladimir Mayakovsky was 13 years old, his father died - from blood poisoning: he injured his finger with a needle, sewing paper. Until the end of his life, the poet was afraid of bacteria: he always carried soap with him, took a folding basin on travels, carried a cologne for wiping with him and carefully monitored hygiene.
After the death of his father, the family was in a difficult situation. Mayakovsky recalled: “After the Father’s funeral, we have 3 rubles. Instinctively, feverishly, we sold tables and chairs. Moved to Moscow. There were not even acquaintances. ” In the Moscow gymnasium, the young poet wrote his first “Incredibly revolutionary and equally ugly” poem and published it in an illegal school magazine.
In the years of Mayakovsky, they arrested several times: he joined the Bolshevik party, worked in an underground printing house. First, the young revolutionary was given “on bail” to the mother, and for the third time they put him in prison. Mayakovsky later called the imprisonment in a single chamber "11 Butyr months." In conclusion, Mayakovsky read many books.
He dreamed of a new art, a new aesthetics, which would fundamentally differ from the classical. Mayakovsky decided to study painting - he changed several teachers and a year later he entered the Moscow School of painting, sculpture and architecture. Mayakovsky again wrote poetry, from which his new comrades were delighted. David has an anger of the master who overtook his contemporaries, I have the pathos of a socialist who knows the inevitability of a crash of junk.
Russian futurism was born. For public speeches by Vladimir Mayakovsky, they expelled from the school. In the years, a well -known tour of the futurists passed: a creative group with performances drove with touring in Russian cities. Burliuk rode and promoted futurism. But he loved Mayakovsky, stood at the cradle of his verse, knew his biography to the smallest detail, knew how to read his things - and therefore through the butades of David Davidovich Mayakovsky arose so material that he wanted to touch his hands.
The Futurist Po-Futurizer Peter Nezhtumov, the actor, the artist and author of “Folk performances” Vladimir Mayakovsky was interested not only in poetry and painting. In the year, he made his debut in the theater: he wrote the tragedy “Vladimir Mayakovsky”, set it on stage and played a major role. Simple colorful pictures were created for them and wrote short poems in which the enemy was ridiculed.
Lily Brik for many years became the lover and Muse of Mayakovsky, he dedicated poems and poems to her, and even after parting he continued to admit love. Meyerhold recalled working with the poet: “Mayakovsky was a knowledge of very thin theatrical, technological things that we know, directors who are usually studied for very long schools, almost at the theater, etc. Mayakovsky always guessed all the right and wrong stage decision, precisely as a director.” A year later, the tense era of “growth windows” began: artists and poets collected hot topics and released campaigns - they are often called the first Soviet social advertising.
The work went stressfully: both Mayakovsky and his colleagues had to stay late or work at night to release the party on time. In total, up to fifty posters were made, up to a hundred signs, packages, wrappers, light advertisements, advertising pillars, illustrations in magazines and newspapers ... He did not like to draw and measure, but did everything by hand.
It will immediately draw a pencil, without a blossom, then it will circle in mascara and color it. It was evident that it was easy for him and it is pleasant for him to wield a brush. Drawing was a vacation for him, and he was done at these minutes especially affectionate and tender. Often he called me to help the letters write out or draw something. The watches spent together with Volodya for the preparation of advertising posters brightly resurrect in memory.
Here is one of the notes of that time: “Rodchenko. Come to me right now with a dialisting tool. On his pages, prose and poems, pictures of avant -garde photographers, bold architectural projects and the news of “left” art were published on his pages. In the year, the poet finally broke up with Lily Brik.There Mayakovsky met the translator Ellie Jones, a short but stormy romance broke out between them.
Both premieres were held at the Meyerhold theater. The poet was the second director, he monitored the design of the performance and worked with the actors: he read fragments of the play, creating the necessary intonations and placing semantic accents. Very Vladimir Vladimirovich was fond of all work. He went to work with his head. Before the premiere of "Bath" he was completely exhausted.
He spent all the time in the theater. He wrote poetry, inscriptions for the auditorium for the production of "Bani". He himself followed their hanging. Then he cut that he hired the Meyerhold theater not only by the author and the director, he worked a lot with the actors on the text, but both a malar and a carpenter, since he himself painted and pinned something.
As a very rare author, he was so burning and ached with a performance that he participated in the slightest details of the production, which, of course, was not part of his author's functions. Actress Veronika Polonskaya both plays caused a stir. Some spectators and critics saw a satire on bureaucracy in works, while others were criticized by the Soviet system. Do you know what work Mayakovsky first wrote a ladder?
In the year, he was not approved for the first time traveling abroad. The poet began to fiercely attack official criticism. He was reproached for the satire in relation to phenomena, supposedly defeated, for example, the same bureaucracy, and bureaucratic wires. Mayakovsky decided to hold the exhibition “20 years of work” and present on it the results of his many years. He himself selected newspaper articles and drawings, arranged books, hung up posters on the walls.
On the opening day, the guest hall was crowded. However, as Bromberg recalled, none of the representatives of literary organizations came to the opening. Yes, and the poet’s official congratulations with the twenty years of work was not there either. I will never forget, like in the Press House at the Vladimir Vladimirovich’s exhibition “twenty years of work”, which for some reason was almost boycotted by the “big” writers, we, several shift people, were on duty around the stands literally for days, physically suffering from which a sad and strict face walked through the empty halls a large, high-up, laying his hands behind his back, walked back and forth, as if waiting for someone to go back and forth, as if waiting for someone Very expensive and more and more convinced that this dear person will not come.
The poetess Olga Bergholts aggravated personal drama. Vladimir Mayakovsky, in love with Polonskaya, demanded that she leave her husband, abandoned the theater and settled with him in a new apartment. As the actress recalled, the poet either arranged scenes, then calmed down, then again began to be jealous and demand an immediate decision. One of these explanations has become fatal.
After the departure of Polonskaya, Mayakovsky committed suicide. In a dying letter, he asked the “Comrade Government” not to leave his family: “My family is Lilya Brick, Mom, Sisters and Veronika Vitoldovna Polonskaya. If you arrange a tolerable life for them, thanks. ” After the death of Mayakovsky, the entire archive of the poet departed to Brikam. Lilya Brik tried to preserve the memory of his work, wanted to create a memorial room, but constantly stumbled upon bureaucratic obstacles.
The poet was almost not published. Then Brik wrote a letter to Joseph Stalin. In his resolution, Stalin called Mayakovsky "the best and talented poet of the Soviet era." The resolution was printed in Pravda, the works of Mayakovsky began to be published in huge circulations, and his name to name the streets and Square of the Soviet Union. Plaster, without disputing it in life, disputed at death.
But the living, excited Moscow, alien to small literary disputes, became in line to his coffin, not organized in this line, spontaneously, recognizing the unusualness of this life and this death by itself. And the living, excited Moscow filled the streets on the way to the crematorium. And the living, excited Moscow did not believe his death. He still does not believe.
