Colorized all colors of the rainbow against the backdrop of trombonist Opera blows "Dark Eyes". A woman from the crowd requires an accompaniment to the song his own composition. People dancing on the wooden jetty leading somewhere in the dungeons. Photographers gallop around the street orchestra. And then the crowd dies down, with his head up. In the niche of the second floor, effectively draped green building grid appears Vyacheslav Mizin. Calmly and somehow detached surveyed the neighborhood, he let go of pants sheaves colored sparks and smoke. The thunder, screams and applause. "If he so effectively ends, it is interesting how he starts?" - Asks one of the musicians. With performance "Fireworks" famous n-lic art group Blue Noses traveled half the world, and Novosibirsk bored and silent.

"As we have done the art 200-x" - the subtitle of the project "Look!", Which opened last night in an unfinished building of the theater Sergey Afanasiev. The brickwork, plastered walls, cement floor, hung with cellophane windows combined with a very annoying antics actual artists who make art out of all that lies under their feet. They do not need respectable galleries with parquet floors and chandeliers. They do not wear tuxedos, butterflies and varnished boots.

Gallery owner Anna Tereshkova - the main figure in this celebration of life. One day in her bright head came the idea of "Look!" She said:

- I have long dreamed present in Novosibirsk slice of our contemporary art, which is widely known in the West, but here it is not known. Guys, I said to them, when I find a good cellar, and I'll show you. And so I did not sleep at night, and next morning I come to Sergei Afanasyev, I say that I was born a project - an exhibition in your unfinished theater. His first reaction: genius! Then all began to turn, spun around this, artists, architects, designers, artists, journalists - all connected and have worked with virtually no money. The last time these sensations I experienced as a student: guys, let's do something! Energy that unites people who can sweep away the mountains!

Power swept mountains of construction debris and turned the long-term construction of exhibition space. Screams are heard everywhere - this video, watch and enjoy his own reflection in a distorting mirror. Self-made toy robots Omsk Damir Muratov combined into a series of "Good Bye, era!" - Replicated stamps stuck in my head man in the street, placed under glass cases. In the center of the hall is equipped with a basketball court, a basket nailed to the foreheads of symbolic persons: Karl Marx, Leo Tolstoy, Albert Einstein and Michael Lomonosov. Kick right place ...

The main characters are here, of course, "Blue Noses". Vyacheslav Mizin, Alexander Shaburov, Konstantin Skotnikov, Yevgeny Ivanov wander among his works, some of which are made on the knee, while others are printed in a modern lab. For the first time in Novosibirsk in the same space provided what they've done in the decade of its activities. Plush Toys, Teletubbies, monkeys, cult kinogeroi socialism, western diva screen, politicians, terrorists - all in one harness. Well, of course, scandalous Kissing millitsionery, frozen in arms against the backdrop of a birch grove, the very ones which the then Minister of Culture Alexander Sokolov called "the shame of Russia", - the place of honor. And then - kissing ballerina. They - the symbol of "Look!" Kissing sailors. And even zheleznodorozhnitsy. "Era of Mercy" to cover all social strata. Topics actual artists are provocative, as their characters.

"Adult men play the fool" - considered by many, particularly members of the traditional art. Well, yes, "Blue Noses" to strip to his shorts, a frosty November day went to St. Basil's Cathedral and pose for the photographer. Solid cynicism. This "New fools. Or, again undressed, but now closing the face masks of politicians, are removed in obscene poses. Solid pornography. This "Mask Show". Or here. Dark room. It is not clear that there will be then, dressing room or bar, and while it is a cement bag, which is only one subject - video projector. Spot shot from a prone position, the image is on the ceiling, where ... How would it pokulturnee speak. When worn on the tennis courts with racket, uttering cries of a sexual nature, rarely of the men who does not dream of jumping from the stands, lie on the grass and stare up under her skirt. This top secret obscenity "Blue Noses" dragged into the light of day. Or rather, not on sunlight, and in an empty room, where the spectator is alone with their own fantasies.

Mocking the idiocy of life, over her idols and authority over its cliches and cliches, "Blue Noses" fleeing from all this irony and laughter. They address the creativity of the people, but not always shavaet People. Ret is not easy to solve the intellectual subtext of their work. Eugene Ivanov says:

- This is not simple, not glamorous art to understand it, need training, you need to know the context, the discourse, to understand that people who do live in a different dimension than those who come to watch it.

Watch came representatives of cultural power and creative figures: Andrew Filichev, Vladimir Miller, Valery Brodsky, Alexander Nazimko, Andrey Shapovalov, Alexander Lozhkin, Timur Gordeev, Sergey Gagarin, Alexei Kazarinov ... "In the Art Museum of normal temperature, 36, 6, and here few degrees above ", - said the most advanced P-sky art, and now director of the Khanty-Mansiysk museum Vladimir Nazansky, referring to the Biennale of graphics, passing along a couple of blocks away.

You bet. "Look!" - Is not only an exhibition but a series of installations, lectures, concerts and performances throughout "Interra". Artistic Director of Ballet NGATOiB Igor Zelensky dared to show the precarious stage of long lasting piece of its production to the music of Edward Liang "Whispers in the Dark", and followed him out on a platform of electronic music pioneers of the Novosibirsk Nuclear Los and musician touring Roman Stolyar. In the hall there is no velvet chairs, the stage there is no scenery. Water either. And heating. Barely covered buffet table, like smashed and shattered into small fragments of glass. Fortunately.
