Dmitry Volkostrelov: a little differently than all

Dmitry Volkostrelov - the name, not so long ago sounded on the theatrical stage. A man who forced to talk about himself even people who have made modern theater and cinema the way we know them now. In order to stir the intellectual and sophisticated St. Petersburg audience, it's not enough to be just talented. That the maitres about whom the public is awed speak about you, it is not enough to be just lucky.

About how hard it is to get to the stars, - further.

How it all began

Dmitry was born on August 17, 1982 in Moscow. The native city became a reference point for a young ambitious guy, already at the age of 16 decided to cross the threshold of the Moscow State University of Culture and Arts (Moscow State University of Culture and Arts). Moreover, the promising young man successfully entered this university in the specialty of "directing and acting".

Four years of study and the constant search for his own niche in a field where everything seemed to have been said and played, attracted the attention of teachers. By the time the young director was released, there was hardly any doubt that Dmitri should continue to study on a more serious basis.

So, in 2002 Dmitry Volkostrelov was at the Petersburg Academy of Theater, at the course of Lev Dodin, where up to 2007 he comprehended the higher school in the chosen specialty.

Becoming an actor

While still a student, Dmitry Volkostrelov began to try on a complex and new genre of theatrical art - a mono performance. The idea seized him, but the project over the first production - it was Ivan Vyrypayev's July - stretched out for as long as 3 years. The reason was one after another, leaving tapes with the participation of a newly graduated actor, and only the third of them - the film "We from the Future" by Andrey Maliukov, brought Dmitry fame and recognition.

Then follow the series, movies with strong, confident roles of the main characters and memorable characters, until in 2010 Volkostrelov, the director, took the upper hand over Volkostrelovym-actor.

Then in the theater of St. Petersburg "ON. Theater "was read and staged a play of a new vision of" The Locked Door "of a sufficiently discussed and well-known playwright Pavel Pryazhko. The success of the production was unexpected - two major awards of the project. Encouraged by the first experience, Dmitry quickly finishes and brings to the stage a protracted "July".

The ill-considered reality of Dmitry Volkostrelov

Mobile and easily moving theatrical association "Theater post" - own creation of Dmitry Volkostrelov, created by him in 2011, one by one gave five intellectuals Pryazhko to the intellectual Petersburg audience. The ideological inspirer of Dmitry, as if defying standard concepts, sculpted scenarios like a sculptor on raw clay - regardless of the generally accepted canons. And Dmitry Volkostrelov, whose photo is posted in the article, embodying what he has conceived, took away the admirers of contemporary art in the depth of their personal perception of what was happening.

Meanwhile, the cinematographic experience of the actor expands. Dmitry Volkostrelov, whose filmography was replenished with the highest-grossing tapes, is removed in films by the method of complete reincarnation into the hero. "Tula Tokarev", "Escape", "Escape 2", "Reckoning" - and with each role, the charismatic personality of the "complex simple" person manifested exactly what Dmitry brought to the audience from the stage, recreating the aesthetics of the real world in all its nudity .

Willingly sharing his plans for future productions, Dmitry Volkostrelov diligently ignores questions about his personal life. His whole public life is spelled out in his work, and to create an advertisement for himself at the expense of the curiosity of the masses is clearly not to his liking.

Prizes and awards

For the director's production of performances: July (2011), The Evil Girl (2012), Shoot-get treasure-Repeat (2013) - Dmitry every time becomes a laureate of the youth theater prize Proryv in St. Petersburg.

For joint creative work with K. Pestrukhina at the festival "Golden Mask" Dmitry receives a separate award from the members of the jury of the Drama Theater - 2013.

The most expressive and characteristic at the moment role of the modest and impulsive boy Beroev in the film "We from the Future" brought Dmitry the award from the 12th All-Russian Festival of Visual Arts for Best Actor.
