Andrei Panin
Andrei Panin, born on May 28, 1962, in Novosibirsk, spent his formative years in Kemerovo. He pursued his passion for the performing arts by graduating from the directing department of the Institute of Culture in Kemerovo, after which he honed his skills at the Minusinsk Theater.
In 1990, Panin completed his studies at the prestigious Moscow Art Theater School under the guidance of Alexander Kalyagin, subsequently joining the Moscow Art Theater named after A.P. Chekhov. His theatrical repertoire included notable productions such as "Three Sisters" (as Salty), "The Miserly Knight," "Marriage," and Evgeny Grishkovets' private production "Winter." He was also part of the acclaimed performances "Academy of Laughter" and "Three on a Swing" at the A.S. Pushkin Theater.
Panin's cinematic journey began with his role in "In a Straight Line," but he truly gained recognition through films like "Mother, Do Not Cry" by Maxim Pezhemsky, "Mother" by Denis Evstigneev, and popular TV series such as "Kamenskaya" and "Border. Taiga Romance." His work in the 2000 films "Wedding," "It Is Not Recommended to Offend Women," and "24 Hours" further solidified his status, alongside his role in the hit series "Brigada." His filmography also features titles like "Chic," "A Horseman Called Death," and "Shadow Boxing."
In 1999, Panin was honored as the Honored Artist of the Russian Federation. He graduated from an experimental acting workshop at VGIK in 2006. Tragically, he passed away on March 6, 2013, in Moscow, and was laid to rest at Troekurovsky Cemetery on March 12.
