Sofya Apfelbaum goes to GITIS

The director of the Department of State Support of Art and Folk Art of the Ministry of Culture Sofya Apfelbaum will be appointed vice -rector of GITIS.

This was reported by TASS with reference to the press service of the Ministry of Culture.

Who will take the post of head of the department is not yet reported. “The order on the appointment of a new person has not yet been signed,” the Ministry of Culture said.

“I have been working in the ministry for almost eight years,” said TASS Apfelbaum. - The experience and skills acquired in the public service is difficult to overestimate. But eight years is a long time, and when I was offered the position of vice -rector GITIS, it seemed to me that this is the right moment and the right place to develop further. ”

The ex-head of the department thanked her entire team, "in which beautiful, competent, devoted people work." She is sure that their contacts will continue in a new place, "after all, education in the field of art is impossible without a strong connection with a living creative process."
