Nikolay Fomenko: biography. Wife and children of Nikolai Vladimirovich Fomenko

Fomenko Nikolai Vladimirovich - Honored ArtistRussia, musician, sportsman, outstanding showman - was born in Leningrad on April 30, 1962. Nikolai's father, Vladimir Vladimirovich Fomenko, a scientist-physicist, corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Mother - Fomenko Galina Nikolaevna - in her youth she was a ballerina, and in adulthood she mastered the engineering and construction specialty. The parents of the little Kolya loved art, and he grew up in an atmosphere of constant discussion of theatrical performances and plots of new films. When the child grew older, father and mother began to take him to the theater. The boy closely watched what was happening on the stage and, quite possibly, children's impressions influenced the choice of Nikolai Fomenko's profession.

Group "Secret"

Kolya Fomenko studied at the Leningrad school No. 222with a sporting bias, engaged in mountain skiing, fulfilled the candidate's standard for a master of sports. After graduating from high school, he entered LGITMiK, the Leningrad Institute of Theater, Music and Cinematography. In the third year Nikolay Fomenko, whose biography did not contain anything unusual, together with his friend Maxim Leonidov and musician Dima Rubin, organized a vocal and instrumental group "Secret".

The guys rehearsed day and night, lackmusical education was filled with young enthusiasm. "Secret" was a great success in the entire territory of the USSR, from 1984 to 1992. Thus, Nikolai Fomenko-actor became a musician and composer; he composed music, as well as texts. Songs such as "Hello", "My Love on the fifth floor", "Home" and many others suddenly became hits.

Disagreements

In the early 90's in the group "The Secret" beganDisagreements that affected creativity. Maxim Leonidov left first, and the beat-quartet "Secret" began to rehearse in the "trio" format. Then Nikolay Fomenko, whose biography had already replenished with new pages, left the collective to return after a while. Other musicians just left and returned the same way. It would seem that in such conditions it is impossible to be creative, but as soon as the whole four gathered together again, the "Secret" was ready for concert activity and studio records. Musicians Andrei Zabludovsky and Alexei Murashov were both the two guarantors of the creative team, on them, in fact, the band was holding. In 2007, "Secret" appeared in the Big Concert Hall "Oktyabrsky" in its entirety, and in 2013 the band participated in the rock festival "Invasion".

The project "Maroussia"

In addition to music, Nikolai Fomenko, (his biographyregularly updated) participated in theatrical performances, and also performed episodic roles in the cinema. The filmography of the actor contains 27 paintings, including "The Sky in Diamonds", "Miracles, and only, or Pike in Moscow", "Old Nags", "Women's Happiness", "Radio Day", "Leaning Tower of Pisa", "Apostle " and etc.

Diploma LGITMiK opened the possibilitydirect participation in any project related to art. Nicholas even could, if desired, become an actor of the Leningrad BDT, under the leadership of the famous Tovstonogov, but his professional ambitions did not extend that far. Films with Nikolai Fomenko were not distinguished by high box office fees, and he understood that he was not a movie star, but the television projects in which Fomenko took part were all as selective - interesting and informative. Nevertheless, the time of the main project in the life of the showman has not yet come. The last few years, Nikolai Fomenko, whose biography was already ready for drastic changes, was engaged in motor sport. Then this hobby took the form of a business project for the creation of the automotive company Marussia Motors, which produces sports cars.

Sports cars and profitability

Marussia was established in 2007 by twoenthusiasts - Nikolay Fomenko and Yefim Ostrovsky, an entrepreneur. Before that, there were no sports cars of domestic production on the Russian market, and the project promised to be successful. However, Fomenko and his partners faced a number of serious obstacles. Any manufacturer of automotive equipment begins the development of its enterprise with the organization of a design bureau and attracting qualified specialists. However, the specifics of the construction of sports cars are much more complicated than the usual technological processes used in the serial production of cars. Sports cars must be produced in strictly limited quantities, up to five units of each model. This rule ensures a sufficient level of exclusivity of the machine. But in this case, the profitability of production is impossible, or sports cars will be prohibitively expensive.

Sports models

Nevertheless, Marussia Motors already in 2008announced the creation of the first Russian sports car. Many considered the project of Nikolai Fomenko unnecessarily ambitious and unpromising, but after only one year, the firm "Maroussia" introduced the pilot sports car Marussia, and immediately in two trim levels - models B1 and B2. And in the spring of 2010 at the Moscow Motor Show a presentation of the concept car Marussia F2 was held, the main characteristics of which can be categorized as crossovers. The F2 model is currently produced for the Russian consumer, and is also supplied in small batches to the world market.

Formula 1

In December 2009, Marussia Motors submitted an applicationto participate in the competition of Formula 1 and was adopted in the format of a separate team under the Marussia Virgin Racing brand. Nikolay Fomenko was appointed head of the engineering segment. The season of 2011 was the debut of the Marussia team, in which not a single point was scored. However, more than a mediocre performance was not considered a failure, and the team simply renamed the Marussia F1 Team. Nevertheless, the Marusi cars did not pass the series of crash tests conducted at the beginning of the 2012 season and were not allowed to compete. And in April 2013 the company Marussia Motors submitted documents for participation in the tender for the creation of the presidential limousine.

Personal life

In addition to creative activity, work and hobbies,every person should have a personal life. Nikolai Fomenko was married four times, from 1980 to the present. At first, married life had to be combined with the tours of the quartet "Secret", and since 2007 Nikolay disappeared on the project "Maroussia", came home late at night and left early in the morning. The first wife of Nikolai Fomenko, Lena, was the daughter of Rem Lebedev, People's Artist of the USSR, and actress Lyudmila Krasikova. The marriage lasted five years. In 1981, Lena and Nicholas had a daughter, Katya. Subsequently, she graduated from the journalism faculty of MGIMO and since 2004 worked in the publishing house Kommersant. She has two children, Aglaya and Masha, born in 2004 - 2005.

Wives and children

The second marriage of Nikolai Fomenko with a dancerLudmila Goncharuk lasted ten years, from 1985 to 1995. The couple did not have children. After the divorce with his second wife, Nikolai immediately married for the third time. This time his choice was the daughter of the People's Artist of the RSFSR Larisa Golubkina, Maria Golubkina, who, like her mother,

devoted her life to the theater and cinema. In 1998, the daughter of Anastasia was born to her husband, and in 2002 - the son of Ivan. But even this did not save the marriage. And finally, the fourth wife of Nikolai Fomenko is Natalya Vladimirovna Kutobaeva, the former press secretary of Valentina Matvienko, the governor of St. Petersburg. After moving to Moscow, Natasha began to work in the Federation Council of Russia, as well as the head of the press service. From this marriage there is a son Vasily, who was born in 2009. Nikolai Fomenko, whose children from different marriages have long grown up and live their lives, is quite a happy founder of a large family.
