Wysocki’s head was cut off. With the living do not have time, but now — just in time for the 40th anniversary from the date of death — cut off the head of the monument on the grave.
Loyal fans of Vladimir Vysotsky, who every year on the 25th of July come on Vagankovo will be shocked: now at the monument zheglova head.
And still the head was not very similar, but something poetic in it still was, and got used to it over the decades. Now the poetry has disappeared, but there was a COP. The head opened her mouth, changed her hairstyle; it can be replaced and the floor (fashionable topic), but the statue is wearing a causal place not visible.
the Figure at the grave of Vysotsky tied, wrapped. The poet in a straitjacket — is understandable. But a detective?
to Reduce Vysotsky to zheglova’s murder. In the minds of people Vysotsky is one of his songs. And the figure with the present head is to attach the hands and give the gun. At the same time and the words to add: “a Thief should sit in jail”. Maybe this idea was, but I was afraid — suddenly the cemetery authorities will regard it as a political attack.
the Idea of idiots first stun people. And then we get used to it. Used to dried grasshopper in the sky above the Poklonnaya hill; accustomed to the fact that the Poklonnaya mountain is actually there (skipped); used by Columbus, who sailed to the House on the embankment; swallowing his fear, learn not to notice Vladimir ascended the walls of the Kremlin… a Replacement head on sepulchral monuments — this idea can take root. And monuments of the actors (to start) the most suitable: they played different roles. At the Novodevichy is the music to the Day of police there can make a person Detochkina, and the birthday of Shakespeare — hamlet. Having mastered the technique, move on to politicians. Petersburg overdue for the Copper horseman came face Sobchak.
General to change the heads on the monuments of policy is advantageous from every point of view. And a lot of money to save, and historical justice will obediently conform to the current moment. For example, this sculptural group: male squatting kisses a boy in the stomach. The change of times, change a boy to a girl.
Finally we came up with something that America can borrow. There is now an outbreak of madness: the demolition of the monument to the former President because, they say, that it was white slave owners. But all the monuments to the presidents of America — dressed. Open only the face. What is easier otelini white heads, black pridelava — here’s in one bottle and the restoration of historical justice, and the preservation of the urban landscape.
…after 100 years of the tour guide at Vagankovo will bring people to the monument and to explain: “Diapered Zheglov symbolizes the impotence of the fight against crime in the early twenty-first century. Head mouth slightly open, lips condemned to the death of the detective stubbornly whisper: “a Thief should sit in jail”.
