It was interesting and informative to hear from Yeskendir N. and Bekezhanova Zh. about the Karaganda Circus, one of the most famous buildings in our city. On the roof of the building there is a statue of “The Girl on the Balloon”. This sculpture is based on a line of work by the famous painter Paul Picasso. Picasso befriended a French circus performer in 1905 and frequently attended rehearsals of the entire troupe. This acquaintance served as the subject of a future painting. The well-known work with more than century history was made in our city in the form of a sculpture and established in a well-known building of our city. Alexey Shaposhev, a talented painter from our city, created an image of the work with a brush and presented it at the exhibition.
Among creative works presented at the exhibition, the painting called ” Where-Where, in KARAGANDA” made special impression on students. The painting is based on a sculpture in our city ” Where-Where, in KARAGANDA”, which has become a famous phrase in social networks. Museum guide Aigul Abdrashevna Kazimova explained the history of the sculpture. The phrase is widespread in various Russian literary works. The phrase can also be found in the song “Karaganda” performed by the group “Dune”. On May 28, 2011 a monument to the famous phrase was unveiled in Karaganda. The monument is placed in the yard of one of the city restaurants. The monument of the first phrase in the world was awarded with the certificate of the Guinness Book of Records.
The round table participants expressed their admiration and gratitude to all the masters of fine arts who presented their creative works.
