On February 28, a round table meeting on the exhibition was held at the Andrei Rublev Museum "Water Images in Christian Art". The exhibition opened at the museum at the end of 2016 and was dedicated to the images of water in Christian art. As experts note, a wide range of various monuments, united by symbolic, allegorical, metaphorical images of water, makes it possible to trace different semantic aspects of its interpretation in Christian iconography.
In the Old Testament, water is the element from which, according to the Creator's plan, the first living beings appeared. She also acts as an instrument of God's wrath in the history of the Flood. In the New Testament, the meaning of water takes on a deeper philosophical content. This is, first of all, a symbol of spiritual purification associated with one of the most important events that all evangelists narrate about. At the exhibition, this plot was illustrated by a number of monuments, the oldest of which is the icon " Epiphany» of the end of the 15th century from the collection of the museum.
One of the themes associated with the New Testament symbolism of water is the depiction of springs, which, with all the variety of meanings, interpretations and interpretations, are associated with the idea of spiritual salvation. In the lives of the saints, the water element is a common motif. Some saints, like the Old Testament Moses, control the water element, others perform their martyrdom in the waters, miraculously move on the water, save the drowning or appear on the waters to people. The exhibition featured about 70 diverse and rare works of Russian and European art of the late 15th - early 20th century from the collection of the Andrei Rublev Museum, corporate and private collections. In addition to icons, the exhibition includes works of graphics, monumental painting and decorative and applied art.
Round table on the exhibition " Images of water in Christian art aroused great interest among specialists. The event was attended by both Moscow art historians and guests from Sergiev Posad, Yaroslavl, Borovsk and other cities. Director of the Andrei Rublev Museum M.B. Mindlin delivered a welcoming speech to the participants of the meeting. Part of the reports of the round table was devoted to art history problems, the other - to the sacralization of water in the culture of the Old Believers of Tuva, Karakalpakia and Pechora. During the round table meeting, the following reports were made:
- S.A. Kiryanova — « The image of the source in the icons "The origin of the honest trees of the Cross of the Lord

PRESS RELEASE
The State Hermitage is a recognized leader in organizing the most diverse forms of professional communication between museum staff. For decades, special classes, seminars, conferences, round tables on research work, storage organization, and restoration have been held. In recent years, in the new historical and economic conditions, topical issues of implementing development programs, image policy, strengthening public relations, special programs for various categories of visitors: children's, school, student audiences, Russian and foreign tourists have become an object of close attention.
The State Hermitage Museum, one of the few museums that has recognized tourists as an independent category of visitors, has created a department that works in a very responsible area for the preparation and implementation of the museum's "tourist product". The Department of Tourism and Special Programs of the State Hermitage initiated a round table discussion on the preparation and implementation of special programs for visitors in museums. The first Round Table "The Museum and the Problems of "Cultural Tourism"" was held at the State Hermitage Museum in April 2003 and was timed to coincide with the celebration of the 300th anniversary of St. Petersburg. It was attended by employees of St. Petersburg's leading museums and representatives of travel companies. The participants of the First Round Table recognized the relevance of the topic, proposed to make such meetings regular and, which is highly desirable, to prepare publications of a scientific and methodological nature.
A feature of the Second Round Table (2004) was a significant expansion of the circle of participants: employees of the museums of Kaliningrad, Arkhangelsk, Staraya Ladoga, other cities of Russia and sociologists took an active part in its work, bringing their vision of the actual problems of the museum's work with various categories of visitors. As a kind of summing up the work of the Round Table, a collection of materials was published, each article of which provided a reason for the formation of an independent special program. Since 2004, the publication of round table materials has become an annual event.
In April 2005, for the third time, the State Hermitage held an annual Round Table "The Museum and the Problems of "Cultural Tourism"". Museum practice has confirmed the relevance of the proposed topics, and every year the spaces of a fairly new problem for domestic museums began to expand. Traditionally, the agenda of the meetings of the Third Round Table included both theoretical reports and messages from museum staff on specific special programs. A certain emphasis was placed on the peculiarities of the work of "small" museums. The audience of the Round Table has grown significantly: foreign colleagues shared their experience and suggestions. Thus, the problems of "cultural tourism" were already considered by the participants in the context of world theory and practice.
On April 27, 2006 the Fourth Round Table "Museum and problems of "cultural tourism"" was held. The emphasis was placed on the specifics of tourist programs for children. The event brought together employees of leading museums in Russia, representatives of travel associations and companies, teachers of St. Petersburg universities. The topics of the Round Table have expanded significantly. Museum employees, teachers of higher educational institutions of the city, foreign colleagues made presentations and reports. For the first time, a guest from Australia (V. Soloukhin Literary and Theater Society) took part in the work of the Round Table. Such interest of foreign colleagues in the event emphasized that the results achieved by Russian museums, in turn, are of interest to the practice of international tourism.
The program of the Fifth Round Table (2007) included presentations on "hyperprojects" aimed at developing inter-museum communications and creating joint special programs.
In 2008, the Round Table "Museum and the Problems of "Cultural Tourism"" was included in the extensive museum program of celebrating the 100th anniversary of the birth of Academician Boris Borisovich Piotrovsky (1This Round Table clearly showed that along with an increase in the number of speakers, a group of regular participants in the event was formed, each message of which reveals new facets in the creative process of working with tourism projects.Representatives of Russian museums (Arkhangelsk, Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Petrozavodsk and others) are increasingly involved in the work.
In 2009, the Round Table became the seventh in a row.
The agenda was opened by a message from an employee of the Hermitage-Kazan Center, which is significant in its own way, since this year the State Hermitage opened another center - the Hermitage-Vyborg, and which has already become well known as the object of the tourist show Hermitage-Amsterdam ”, moved to a new, higher orbit, opening the first exhibition in the completely renovated Amstelhof building.
A feature of the Round Table held this year was the abundance of serious theoretical generalizations about the general problems of cultural tourism, the tourist potential of the city and the special role of the tourism component in the activities of museums.
Traditionally, the basis of the agenda was made up of reports presenting the results of the implementation of specific projects in specific circumstances. As always, the geography of the cultural institutions represented was surprising; in addition to numerous participants from St. Petersburg and Moscow were represented: Arkhangelsk, Kazan, Petrozavodsk, Ufa, Yaroslavl. It is interesting to combine cultural institutions of different nature in one project, for example, a theater and a museum. Employees from European museums presented their creative applications: Kassel (Germany) and Thessaloniki (Greece).
The Eighth Round Table in 2010 coincided with a significant date. In the year of the 65th anniversary of the victory in the Great Patriotic War, a special place was occupied in the program by the reports of the employees of the Kulikovo Field State Military Historical and Natural Museum-Reserve, the St. Isaac's Cathedral State Museum-Monument, the Battle of Borodino Panorama Museum military glory of Russia.
For the first time in all the years of the event, applications for presentations with reports were sent by 37 people, so the VIII Round Table, unlike all the previous ones, was held for two days.
In 2011, for the ninth time, the State Hermitage brought together at the Round Table representatives of cultural institutions, higher educational institutions and the tourism industry interested in creating new joint projects. For the first time, the discussion was attended by a representative of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation and Alan Watson, Lord Richmond, head of the consulting company CTN Communications, honorary chairman of the International Council of the Union of English Speakers, Lord Steward of the University of Cambridge.
It is noteworthy that this year many reports were prepared not by one, but by two or three authors.
In 2012, the Round Table will be the tenth in a row and, according to a good tradition, will be held over two days.
A wide range of specialists demand publications of reports and reports made in the Hermitage; The number of copies produced is increasing every year.
Round table on the topic: "Problems of medical education in the Russian Federation" was held at the Museum of the History of Medicine of Sechenov University
There are a lot of museums in Moscow, but this most important for a person is the Museum of the History of Medicine of Sechenov University. That is why it was here that, as part of the planned events, a round table was held on the topic: "Problems of medical education in the Russian Federation." The meeting was attended by the Minister of Health of the Russian Federation Veronika Skvortsova, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Health Protection Dmitry Morozov, representatives of the Association "Council of Rectors of Medical Pharmaceutical Higher Educational Institutions", deputies of the State Duma of the Russian Federation.
The museum presented reports by the Director of the Department of Medical Education and Personnel Policy in Healthcare of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation Tatyana Semyonova on the topic “New Challenges in the System of Continuous Medical Education”, Chairman of the Association “Council of Rectors of Medical Pharmaceutical Higher Educational Institutions”, Rector of the First Moscow State Medical University named after I.M. Sechenov Petr Glybochkon on the topic “Improving the legislation of the Russian Federation in terms of implementing additional professional education programs” and Oleg Salagay, director of the Department of Public Health and Communications of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation on the topic “Development of volunteering and volunteering in healthcare”.

This time I managed to "kill two birds with one stone" - not only to become a member of the round table, but also to visit the halls of a unique museum. The Museum of the History of Medicine of the First Moscow State Medical University named after I.M. Sechenov was established in 1990 and stores about 80,000 exhibits in its funds. These are the memorial funds of outstanding figures of Russian medicine, the richest collection of medical instruments of the 18th-20th centuries, a collection of medals, tokens, badges related to medicine, a collection of pictorial and sculptural portraits of leading figures in medical science, a unique collection of books and teaching aids. Being a structural subdivision of the First Moscow State Medical University named after I.M. Sechenov, the museum regularly conducts thematic excursions for medical students and high school students, as well as sightseeing tours for everyone. The uniqueness of the museum is due to its location, and the content of the collection, and the nature of the services provided. The museum is located in the building of the General Clinical Outpatient Clinic named after Alekseeva, built in 1896 according to the project of the architect K. M. Bykovsky on the territory of the Clinical Town on the Devichye Pole. The building is an architectural monument.
The exposition "History of Russian Medicine from 1755 to 1940s" contains a portrait gallery of prominent figures of Russian medicine, whose names were associated with the history of the university. These are M. Ya. Mudrov, N. I. Pirogov, S. P. Botkin, I. M. Sechenov and others. Here you can also see the rarities of the museum collection: a set of tools designed by N. I. Pirogov, the head of an ancient Egyptian mummy, a gas analyzer created by I. M. Sechenov.

Hearing tested with this instrument
The history of the formation of medical education in Russia is represented by the first textbooks, unique medical instruments, devices, macro- and micropreparations of the 18th-20th centuries. Museum exhibits introduce the activities of prominent representatives of domestic medicine, such as F.I. Inozemtsev, G.A. Zakharyin, N.F. Filatov, N.A. Semashko and others. The memorial office of Professor V.D. Shervinsky - therapist, pathologist, founder of domestic endocrinology.
The exposition “Warriors in white coats. The history of medicine during the Great Patriotic War” was opened on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Great Victory. Interactive elements contribute to immersion in the atmosphere of wartime. A map of the USSR and Europe of 1941 is presented on the multi-touch table. By clicking on the dots on the map, visitors will be able to find out the history of universities during the war, whose graduates became military doctors. Thanks to doctors, more than 72 percent of the wounded soldiers were returned to duty. In contrast to these points are black marks - Nazi concentration camps, where fascist criminals conducted medical experiments on people. The installation in the tent shows a typical picture of the operation close to the front line. In similar conditions, in 1942, military doctor A. Razdyakonov carried out a unique operation to extract an unexploded mine from the body of a fighter. And the defused mine is on display.
One of the interactive showcases is dedicated to the feat of N. Troyan. She was awarded the Gold Star of the Hero of the Soviet Union for her participation in the operation to eliminate Hitler's governor in Belarus, Wilhelm Kube. After the war, N.V. Troyan was the vice-rector of the university. In the museum you can see the exposition "Memorial Cabinet of the Hero of the Soviet Union Nadezhda Viktorovna Troyan".
The basis of the museum's collection was made up of documents and monuments, carefully preserved by the staff of the Department of the History of Medicine of the university. The relics that were in clinics, educational departments of the university, family archives of teachers and doctors were also transferred to the museum. These are personal archives, libraries, furniture, photographs of famous clinicians and scientists, rare medical textbooks and manuals, anatomical atlases of the 16th-20th centuries, printed publications, a collection of dissertations, medical periodicals, alumni albums, devices, medical signs and commemorative medals. .
Of particular value are the memorial funds of outstanding scientists and doctors of the 19th-20th centuries - Sechenov and Korsakov, Serbsky and Karuzin, Shervinsky and Shaternikov, Minor and Konchalovsky, Spasokukotsky and Barykin, Priorov and Tareev, Abrikosov and Kovanov, Myasnikova, - says the director of the museum Galina Sinyaeva . - The collection of the Museum of the History of Medicine contains a unique collection, which is more than 2,000 items of storage of genuine medical instruments of the late 18th-20th centuries related to various fields of medicine. The equipment of the well-known at the end of the 19th century acoustic cabinet of the Yu. commission for improving the life of scientists. The museum exhibits artifacts that have been preserved in a single copy: monuments of culture and medical science, books, autographs, letters and manuscripts of leading figures of domestic medicine.
