Two questions: performing arts v. visual arts, and the number of awardees per year
I have two questions that the article does not address. First, there is a confusing situation between this article and People's Artist of Ukraine. Both articles explain that in order to be awarded "People's Artist of Ukraine" they first must be awarded "Merited Artist" (after a period of 10 years has elapsed).The article on "People's Artist" describes it as covering the following disciplines: "...the performing arts (theatre, music, dance, circus, cinema, etc.)" (emphasis added). Every example given is considered a performing art, except cinema, which is considered a visual/plastic/fine art. This article's lede also states that it is awarded for the performing arts. However, under the heading "Conditions", the second paragraph includes "...creating a [sic] highly artistic images..." (emphasis added) which makes it sound like it covers the visual arts as well (unless they are referring to something like stage or set design). Can anyone clarify this? And second, neither this article nor the one on "People's Artist of Ukraine" gives any indication of whether it is limited to one awardee each year, or if multiple awardees is possible or even typical. In the awards structures of some nations, only one living person can hold a title at a time (such as the United States Poet Laureate), but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Can anyone explain this? Thanks! Bricology (talk) 02:19, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
