Иван Новиков выступил куратором в проекте "Пятая волна" в государственном музее архитектуры им. А. В. Щусева.
MoreThe pop/off/art gallery presents a solo exhibition, “Candleternity,” by Evgeny Mikhnov-Voitenko (1932–1988), a key figure in the Leningrad underground of the 1960s–1980s. The title of the project refers to the artist’s phrase, “human candleness,” formulated by Mikhnov while working on the “Candle People” series (1960s). The exhibition will feature works from this cycle along with compositions from the 1960s, executed in ink on paper: more than 30 sheets from the same period will line up in a consistent narrative chain. The chamber space of the exhibition will be divided into two narratives, the distinctive feature of which is the technical features of Mikhnov-Voitenko’s graphics. Monochrome cycles of works of the 1960s are the result of his fruitful experiments with ink on paper, during which he achieved amazing images and unthinkable plastic solutions. The range of techniques is quite wide: from dripping to automatic writing. A special feature of the series "Candle People" is the anthropocentric approach to creating an abstract image. Silhouettes or faces are guessed in spots and lines, however, all these are just obsessions that excite the imagination of the viewer.
More MoreThe goal of the project is to expand the viewers' understanding of the artist, who is associated with the aura of a lone innovator, and, at the same time, to outline the continuity of ideas and interdisciplinary searches that run along a discrete line from the 20th century to the 21st century. The vector of these searches is aimed at returning to the original impulse that sets in motion the mechanism of human perception and cognition of the surrounding world. The starting point here is Zlotnikov's art. However, following the call made in the title of the exhibition, the dramaturgy can also be built from the opposite direction - through the practices and poetics of other authors, the perception of Zlotnikov's own art is deconstructed and reassembled. "Forward to Zlotnikov!" is a new look at the artist's legacy through interaction with the works of other Russian and foreign authors.
More MoreThe catalog was released for Rostislav Lebedev’s exhibition "Rough cuts” which took place at MMOMA from November 9, 2023 to January 28, 2024. The name of the project referred to Lebedev’s artistic method. Unlike many authors who use subtle, hidden “montage” of ready-made images, he prefers the sharp dissonance of images, a sharp transition from one sign to another. It is precisely such “Rough cuts” that, according to the artist, are capable of carving new, fresh meanings from the simple fact of the meeting of two well-known images. More than 100 works by the author were presented in 9 halls, each of which was addressed to a specific artistic medium of Lebedev.
