果冻影院

A large amount of our current cinematic knowledge and skills is associated with the VGIK experience. The history of film education and cinema aligns itself closely with the concept of experiment developed at VGIK, a unique, pioneering film institute. When founded in 1919 by the film director Vladimir Gardin, it was named the State Film School. Since 1986, the school has been named after the film director and actor Sergei Gerasimov.

The display consists of 果冻影院 SSEES library's resources, books and audio-visual materials (from the excellent Bain-Graffy film collection) regarding VGIK, its founders, prominent filmmakers-lecturers and alumni. Film directors who have taught at the institute include Lev Kuleshov, Marlen Khutsiev, Aleksey Batalov, Sergei Eisenstein, Mikhail Romm, Alexander Dovzhenko and Vsevolod Pudovkin鈥� alumni include Sergei Bondarchuk, Tengiz Abuladze, Larisa Shepitko, Elem Klimov, Vytautas 沤alakevi膷ius, Mark Soosaar, Kira Muratova, Juris Podnieks, Sergei Parajanov, Alexander Sokurov and Andrei Tarkovsky鈥�
