An exhibition dedicated to Yesenin's anniversary opened in Minsk, and Bezrukov was invited to the opening
An exhibition dedicated to the 130th anniversary of the Russian poet Sergei Yesenin opened at the National Art Museum of Belarus in Minsk. The exhibition features more than 100 works of painting, graphics, and sculpture by contemporary Russian artists on the theme of Yesenin's life and work, writes BelTA.

The main part of the works for the exhibition came from the art fund of the Yesenin Museum in Voronezh, which is replenished thanks to regular "Yesenin Plein Air" events held since 2012 in the poet's native village of Konstantinovo in the Ryazan region.

Russian actor Sergei Bezrukov, who once played the main role in a feature film about Yesenin and was invited to the exhibition's opening in Minsk, noted that a part of "Yesenin's soul" is now present in the capital of Belarus and advised visiting the exhibition for inspiration.

The artist emphasized that he was glad about the large number of Yesenin's admirers in Minsk and noted that "the two peoples are united by love for their homeland and a deep knowledge of their native language".
Last November, Sergei Bezrukov found himself in a scandalous situation in Uzbekistan due to his love for Yesenin and not-so-great respect for the distinctiveness of other nations.
In an interview, the artist himself recounted a story of how, while in Tashkent, he was given flowers, and he decided to lay them at night on the grave of Tatiana Yesenina — the poet's daughter, who found herself in Uzbekistan during World War II and lived there for half a century until her death. Bezrukov noted that at the cemetery, local workers helped him find his way to the grave, although they spoke Russian with difficulty. Afterwards, he began to recount and parody their accent, which caused outrage among Uzbeks.
