Among the Samara landscape, a cosmonaut was installed with a stern, imperious hand. He's all made of plastic. Sculpture, in general, is not for the weak.
There is a financial issue here: I don’t know whether money was given for a full-fledged monument, but this one - an inflated doll in front and from the rear in all respects - is called the “Sawing Monument” among ordinary Samaritans. Now, to the delight of millions, it has leaked onto the Internet. It was directed by Filimonov. But is the author to blame? No! I myself am cold with fear at the sight of these tricks: I must admit that Governor Artyakov gave the idea. He personally arrived at the opening, taking responsibility for the cargo. I would like to praise him for his modern, fresh taste: what our Medvedev loves is the diverse avant-garde, but even if he was crazy and delusional, he would never have given the start to such a bold project. I praise the Samara father: Samara is adorned by someone in boots, red-haired, without a face, his figure is completely ready, and what makes him so special is that he squeezes the brake in his little hand (or maybe a stapler, I’m not an expert).
Here's a hot fact - hot, hot! I would drink a liter for this. Let this monument to sawing usher in the style of “cutting” - it will probably become widespread and spread far, replacing the century of Art Nouveau, Rococo, and Art Deco... Recipe: we write out the money, safely hide it somewhere, giving five percent to rags, paper, plastic, etc. To your heroes, Rus', you are generous! Instead of portraits and statues, we will hang black squares and red plastic ones - yes. Samara! Today you are presented with a cool concept. Enjoy it to your heart's content. On the pedestal is not Gagarin, but our own power. Stand forever, a monument of shame, among Russian antiquity. I suspect that very soon you will become a symbol of the country.
