St. Petersburg State Academy of Art and Industry named after A. L. Stieglitz- higher art educational institution, located in St. Petersburg.

The main building of the academy is located in a building designed by the first director of this educational institution, the architect M. E. Mesmacher.

From 1953 to 1994 the institute was called Leningrad Higher School of Industrial Art named after V. I. Mukhina, which is why it is often referred to in the media as " Mukhinsky school", or simply " Fly».

History

In 1873, the "Regulations on drawing schools and classes in the provinces" were approved. Many craft schools carried out production orders for projects famous artists, mainly in the "Russian style".

In 1876, wishing to promote the training of specialists for the art industry in Russia, the financier and textile manufacturer Alexander Ludwigovich Stieglitz (1814-1884) donated one million rubles to the creation of the School of Technical Drawing in St. Petersburg. In 1878-1881. in the Salt Town, a special building was erected according to the project of architects R. A. Gedike and A. I. Krakau. On the second floor of the Central School of Technical Drawing of Baron Stieglitz, solemnly opened on December 29, 1881, a small educational museum and a library. Stieglitz was persuaded to create a museum at the School by the outstanding philanthropist Alexander Alexandrovich Polovtsov (1832-1909). Member of the State Council, Secretary of State, initiator of the creation in Russia of the "Russian historical society"(1866), publisher of the famous "Russian biographical dictionary", Polovtsov, married to the adopted daughter of Baron Stieglitz, in 1891-1909 was chairman of the School Council, acquired works of art, rare books, engravings at his own expense. Works of art were donated to the museum by Prince S. S. Gagarin, collector M. P Botkin, Princes N. S. Trubetskoy, A. B. Lobanov-Rostovsky, Count A. V. Bobrinsky and many others. pottery discovered by him during the excavations of the Hisarlyk hill in Asia Minor.

In 1885-1896. the new building of the museum was erected according to his project by Maximilian Egorovich Messmacher (1842-1906). Earlier, from 1874, Mesmacher taught at the Drawing School of the Society for the Encouragement of the Arts. Architect, draftsman, watercolorist, Messmacher Special attention, according to the worldview of the period of Historicism, devoted to the study of the "history of styles", which he taught at the Stieglitz School along with decorative drawing and watercolor. From 1879 he was the director of the School. Taking as a basis the Venetian architecture of J. Sansovino and the Basilica in Vicenza by A. Palladio (see vol. 2, fig. 598), Messmacher created a huge exhibition hall with overhead light, the rest of the halls he designed in "historical styles": the Medici Hall, the Heinrich Hall II, Henry IV Room, Flemish Room, Louis XIII Room, Room Louis XIV, Tiepolo Hall... For each hall, appropriate subjects were selected for students to study. The principle of exposition "according to styles" and the architectural stylization of interiors were known in Europe at that time and were a visible embodiment of the ideology of Historicism. Mesmacher, with his inherent pedantry and attention to detail, brought this principle to the absolute.

In 1885-1886. Polovtsov made trips abroad to acquire new art objects. In the museum of the School, as a result of this activity, a unique collection tapestries, Italian majolica, Limoges enamels, Sevres, Chinese and Japanese porcelain, galvanocopies from precious metal products, ornamental engravings. By the end of 1913, the collection included about 21 thousand exhibits. In the halls of the museum, classes were held on the history of styles and ornaments, the students copied the exhibits in pen drawings, watercolors and ink washing.

The training program was based on the experience of the Stroganov School in Moscow and art and industrial schools in France, England, Germany. The main subject was drawing, which was divided into "general" and "special". After two classes of general artistic training, the students moved on to special ones: a class of drawing with a pen and ink wash, "shooting art and industrial objects" (meaning graphic copying), "a class of drawing from natural flowers." The general drawing course also ended with special sections: drawing "multicolor ornaments with relief", "composition of ornaments", engraving and lithography.

The system of education at the Stieglitz School was not progressive, moreover, in comparison with advanced schools Western Europe, the pedagogical system of G. Semper and H. Cole, and even the Drawing School of the Society for the Encouragement of Arts, it was "yesterday", a conservative educational institution "in the German way" (Germans dominated among teachers, immigrants from the Baltic States and Finland dominated among students). Nevertheless, the activities of the School, and above all M.E. Messmacher, had great value for the development of the "art industry" in Russia.

Over the years, the teachers of the CUTR were: A. D. Kivshenko, M. K. Klodt, A. T. Matveev, V. V. Mate, A. I. von Gauguin, N. A. Koshelev, A. A. Rylov. After October 1917, the school was transformed several times. In 1918, the school was named the State Art and Industrial Workshops. In 1922, the school, with the museum and library attached to it, merged into the Petrograd VKHUTEIN, and in 1924, ceased to exist as an independent educational institution. In 1945, by decision of the government, the school was re-established as a multidisciplinary educational institution that trained artists of monumental, decorative, applied and industrial art. In 1948, it became a higher educational institution - the Higher Art and Industrial School. In 1953, the Leningrad Higher School of Art and Industry, by decree of the Soviet government, was named after the People's Artist of the USSR, Full Member of the Academy of Arts of the USSR - Vera Ignatievna Mukhina, who made a great contribution to the creation of monumental and decorative art of the USSR. In 1994, LVHPU them. V. I. Mukhina was transformed into the St. Petersburg State Academy of Art and Industry. December 27, 2006 the Academy was named after A. L. Stieglitz. The new name of the academy is St. Petersburg State Academy of Art and Industry named after A. L. Stieglitz.

Even many native Petersburgers do not know the full name of this educational institution, although its unofficial nickname is well known to every city dweller. "St. Petersburg State Academy of Art and Industry?" Does this phrase mean anything to anyone? And what about the Mukhinsky School or just "Flies"?

The appearance of this illustrious educational institution is associated with the activities of the famous entrepreneur and philanthropist, Baron Alexander Stieglitz. Although the working conditions at the Stieglitz enterprises themselves were close to those of a slave, Alexander Ludwigovich himself often felt the desire to “pay his debt to society”, allocating funds for various social projects.

In 1876, Alexander Ludwigovich allocated 5 million rubles in gold (a fabulous amount for those times) for the creation of the School of Technical Drawing. This educational institution was supposed to train applied artists: blacksmiths, designers, glassblowers, furniture makers, fashion designers. For the construction of the school building, a place was chosen near the Fontanka, where salt "shops" - warehouses - were once located. These warehouse buildings gave the name to the nearest alley - Salt.

For the construction of the school, the German architect Maximilian Egorovich Messmacher was invited, who later became the first director of the new educational institution. Stieglitz and Mesmacher believed that students should learn from the best examples of world art, so the interiors of the building were decorated with royal luxury in the style of the Italian Renaissance. As a gift to his educational institution, Stieglitz also presented a collection of paintings, glass and carpets. The salaries of professors and the current expenses of the school were financed by interest on the capital of one million rubles.

Since Stieglitz himself was a native of Livonia, one should not be surprised that in the first decades of the existence of the School of Technical Drawing, a significant part of its students were from the Baltic states, especially from present-day Latvia. So, for example, Rihards Zarins, the creator of the coat of arms and banknotes of Latvia, studied there; author state flag Latvia and its first postage stamp Ansis Cīrulis, the founders of professional Latvian sculpture - Teodor Zalkaln, Gustav Skilter, Burkard Dzenis and others.

After 1917, the school was transformed and became the State Art and Industrial Workshops. In 1922, together with the museum and the library, they merged into the Petrograd VKHUTEIN, and two years later the State Art and Industrial Workshops ceased to exist as an independent educational institution. The museum became a branch of the State Hermitage.

Only in 1945, the Leningrad Art and Industrial School named after Mukhina V.I. was opened on its basis, which soon became one of the most famous educational institutions cities. Among the graduates of the Mukhinsky School were M. Shemyakin, spouses Olga and Alexander Florensky, Dmitry Shagin.

Many myths and legends are associated with the Mukhinsky School. So, before exams, students bring flowers to the angels who decorate the lanterns before entering the building. According to legend, this is the local representation of the city's guardian angel, whose headquarters is located on the Peter and Paul Cathedral. Another legend is associated with front staircase"Flies". First-year students have the right to walk only on its left side, since right side Muse walks up the stairs, reacting nervously to those who beat off her heels. For undergraduates, this rule, for mysterious and mysterious reasons, no longer applies.

Another attraction is the school's glass dome, which allows students to sketch the building's interiors while in class. In Soviet times, students, protesting against totalitarianism, often drunkenly climbed this dome and lay naked on it, shocking the draftsmen below. The legend says that the glass of the dome sometimes could not withstand the weight of naked bodies and the case was not without casualties ...
