Is it easy to shoot actors? Two sought-after theater photographers will talk about the peculiarities of working in the theater and answer questions from the audience.

Mikhail Belotserkovsky began his work as a theater administrator back in the 70s of the last century at the Maly Theater. And for the ninth year he has been actively working in the field of theater photography. Belotserkovsky photographs in many Moscow theaters: the State Academic Theater. E. Vakhtangov, Moscow Academic Theatre. V. Mayakovsky, Moscow Art Theater. Chekhov, the Moscow Drama Theater "On Malaya Bronnaya", the Moscow Academic Theater of Satire, the Moscow Theater School of Oleg Tabakov, the Workshop of Dmitry Brusnikin. Mikhail is a participant of the First Festival of Contemporary Photography "FIXAGE" (2016), the author of personal exhibitions: "In the Light of the Ramp" (Art Club "Gallery", Pechatniki, 2015), "In the Light of the Ramp - 2" (Center for Culture and Creativity "Nega ”, 2016), “In the light of the ramp - 3” (Moscow Music Hall, 2017).

Sergei Chaly became interested in photography in adulthood, focusing on filming in theaters: “For me, theater at its best is some kind of incredible, fantastic magic! When, practically, from scratch, from nothing, from some cardboard boxes, from some curtains, from light and shadow, from an inadvertently dropped replica, from some gesture or a casual glance thrown as if by chance, real life is born, making me, as a viewer, believe in the reality of what is happening, empathize, forget about shooting - this is the real magic. Trying to convey your own impressions in photographs is an incredibly interesting and exciting challenge.”

FIXAGE will be held as a democratic photo forum, a “gathering point” for amateurs and professionals working in the field of contemporary photography, where, in addition to the exhibited exhibitions, there were lectures and master classes on numerous facets of photography: travel photography, city photography, and more.
