The Moscow exhibition "Traditions and Modernity"
 

Dear forum users.
I would like to know your opinion about the exhibition "Traditions and Modernity"
If you have already discussed this topic, then give, plz, link, because their own have been found.

Sought the views of participants or those who attended the show in the past.

Veronic,
This is a collection of money. Nothing more.

Unfortunately as is true of many exhibitions held seychas.Prakticheski not give feedback, either in money or in other aspektah.Esche often brings bad organization of such events.
This is my opinion, maybe I was wrong.

And what a show - enlighten, please!

Previously, the organization was engaged in the development of modern art club "Kiselev." Who is I do not know their site is not working. Http://www.kiselevclub.com yet they have a fund, he changed his nazvanie.Snachala "Foundation for Contemporary Art", and then Foundation "Open Heart"
Club development of modern art "Kiselev" engaged in organizing personal and thematic art exhibitions, promotes the development of modern art in Russia, the revival and preservation of its cultural heritage.


In early 2004, began working a private exhibition "Art Gallery Kiselev, located on Tverskaya Street, where the exhibition were works by renowned and emerging artists ..

Gallery has successfully developed, forming around a center of artistic life. The formed a team of professionals has decided to expand its activities and not limited to displays works of artists in the gallery - well established club of modern art "Kiselev".

His goal - to create favorable conditions for the maintenance and dissemination of contemporary art in Russia and abroad, receiving the masters of modern painting and sculpture, public recognition, involvement in the activities of the club the maximum number of people who wish to participate in the development of fine arts in Russia.

The main activities of the club:

association of artists, sculptors and craftsmen and provide them with comprehensive support, organization of exhibitions in Russia and abroad, organizing various cultural activities and events, participation in joint Russian and international art projects, the involvement of students of art schools, providing a wide range of services related to culture and art.

Now the club has over four hundred artists, but in its storerooms collected over two thousand paintings.

From personal experience, assistance has been fund-artists have made money for their participation in exhibitions, gave work for participation, etc.

I received an invitation, and having studied the information on previous exhibitions first thought was ..... it was a "grab-bag." Judge for yourself .....

But, I would like to hear from the participants themselves .....

Try asking for http://artnow.ru/

Now it is something like "Foundation for contemporary art Kiselev. Supervises Fund Vera Kiseleva - in the past, the Olympic champion in diving. Woman funny, with great connections in the business and bureaucratic world of Moscow. In the art understands poorly. I think that the most she likes Shilov.
Following his fair presents a lot of prizes (pieces 20, in my opinion) in all possible nominations. This statuette named, of course, Vera.
The fair will be the third in a row. Advertising in the media a lot. As for sales - is still from the artists themselves or their gallerists depends, in my opinion.
By the way, keep in mind that the third fair will take place not in Bolshom Manege, as the two previous, but to the Crocus City, which at the Moscow Ring Road :D True, a number of recently opened subway station Myakininskaya

strange
 

strange. really not at all on the forum participants, artists and gallery owners - who for last. 2-3 years, actually participated in this festival. In fact, it is rather large (at least by number of participants), and already very famous (I'm not talking about the signs + or -). just something we have art events large group, including in the game - just two and obchelsya ...

And, incidentally, indeed, occurred to me - big art events - that's a "Fair" type - we have quite a bit in Moscow.
Judge for yourself, bezotsenochno: Art-Manege, Art Moscow, HudGraf, but my-Tees (Tradition and sovr). Yes, even antique, which now includes active and contemporary artists: Antique salon or there Bloshinka on Tishinka. Perhaps, parades and all the art capital of Russia? :confused:

"Regarding today's" includes all the same. Oh absolutely "fresh" no.

Well, "fresh" in the antique-something events and should not be. And this is not the case here - just the major events, with a wide number of participants, though a variety of artistic claims and real quality - in our country, as it turns out, is not enough.

Art-Moscow - where the criteria are quite high and only modern /aktualnoe.
And what HudGraf?
TIS - this is a very strange event. I thought that it seemed to me - asked around, decided to postpone participation.

Actually - Fair graphic arts. Held in the New Manege spring. Here's a quick infa about already the 5th, the anniversary - in 2010 (end of March-May.)

The fifth anniversary of Graphic Arts HUDGRAF Fair will be held from 31 March to 4 April 2010 in the Exhibition Hall "New Manege".
