This large scale project and to you. How much effort, time and money spent, for example, a manufacturer of wooden Hadron kolaydera yet to break his head where then the kiosk, and zero interest. Why did he do that?

Constantine, you little wrong. We need this project not only to us in Russia ...

In Luxembourg "MUDAM" opened tailor-made for the Museum of Modern Art exhibition Nicholas Polissky "Large Hadron Collider, which were made by staff curators" MUDAM "Clement Minegetti and Marie-Noëlle farce, and Olga Makhrova from the Pompidou Center in Paris.

French woman of Russian origin, she at one time worked as cultural attache of the Embassy of France in Russia, and that it belongs to introduce the idea Luxembourg Museum and the Russian artist.

Art epic Muscovite Polissky Nicholas and his collaborators - the inhabitants of the village of Nikola-Yet in the Kaluga region, is somewhat similar to older versions of the computer game "Civilization", in which the player who builds a culture of the people he has chosen, from primitive society, an opportunity not only improve the craft and science, opening new territories and establish contacts with neighbors, but also to create some or other "wonders of the world" - from the Egyptian pyramids to space rockets. And if ordinary player, stimulated mainly to ensure that he created the country was not conquered or fell apart due to internal problems before the construction of "Wonders of the World 'hands do not usually reach, Nicola lenivetskaya" civilization "rests precisely on the them. It was built Polissky and his "people" pyramids and ziggurats have allowed the inhabitants of a tiny village on the banks of the Ugra make contacts not only with Moscow but also in other countries. And, as any civilization, it also does not stand still. After playing out of the snow, a shower of hay, wood, twigs and vines marvels of architecture - from the "Babel" to "Shukhov towers and the ancient aqueducts to the similarity of the famous Parisian skyscraper - the Arch of La Défense, it is time to explore the wonders of science and technology. In 2005, Nikolai Polissky created in the courtyard of the Tretyakov Cosmodrome: a huge installation consisting of conditional similarities missiles and launch systems, woven like baskets of twigs. And now it is time to play the latest achievements of scientific thought, surrounded by no less mythological flair than once fly in space, namely the Large Hadron Collider - the world's largest particle accelerators, which, according to okolonauchnym apocrypha, could trigger the end of the world: discussed the theoretical possibility of formation of the tests of black holes and clusters of antimatter.

Nicholas Polissky says that is not specifically pointed to its sponsors, villagers are no photographs of real collider. Their work - do not fake scientific machinery, and, according to the author, a kind of monument in honor of the achievements of modern science and its artists, a kind of management secrets of the universe of the priests of our day. In honor of them himself Polissky and his co-authors came to the opening in the white lab coats. The giant installation in the "MUDAM" consists of a set of mysterious type and purpose "machines" made, as all works Polissky of clean wood - carved from the enormous shafts, turbines, many parts of complex structures. And instead of spending all this is intertwined with garlands and tangling vines. However, despite the seemingly deliberate innocence and harmlessness of the tree, all of these buildings do not seem toy-like. On the contrary, it is felt that the machines, and truth, full of some kind, perhaps even unknown to science of this energy. If installation Polissky and is associated with some existing technical facilities, it is with those associated with electricity transmission lines, whether trivial or enigmatic tower Tesla (the same way, once built out of wood). Dominates in the exposition in "MUDAM" is a huge wooden dungeon, surrounded as buttresses, powerful coils vines. But his crowning in contrast to Tesla's tower is not a ball, and an antenna, solar wings space station.

Installing the "Large Hadron Collider" has been created specifically for the Luxembourg Museum "MUDAM" and is included in the "dwell", offering a variety of artists obzhit through his works very effectively, but it is extremely difficult for the display space of an interior patio of the museum. The building opened in 2006, "MUDAM" built a patriarch of modern architecture, who was born in 1917, Yo Ming Pei, whose famous "Pyramid of the Louvre" as soon as you remember, once in the Luxembourg Museum: it is under the glass dome piramidopodobnym worthy of this laboratory some futuristic inventor and he lifted his "Collider" Polissky.

For very young museum's opening exhibition of the Russian artist was obviously a great event. At a closed All pre-visited museum patron of the Grand Duke of Luxembourg, Jean, father of the current monarch of Luxembourg. And on the opening day came, RF Ambassador to Luxembourg, Edward Malayan, looking around the exhibition with a genuine curiosity.

The artist himself, however, seemed troubled by the fact that few of vernisazhnoy public, it seemed Polissky, was aware of what a Hadron Collider. In "MUDAM", a museum, pays equal attention to modern art and conceptual design, exhibition Polissky looked primarily as a luxurious modern sculpture, and parascientific apocrypha like the fact that the test is located not far from Luxembourg, on the border of France and Belgium, the Large Hadron Collider may trigger the end of the world, local intellectuals, perhaps, true, do not take to heart.

Meanwhile, in a church in the city of Luxembourg in conjunction with the exhibition Polissky was deployed a small photo-exhibition, illustrating the biblical myth of the seven days of creation with modern photographs of the range "NACA" or "National Geographic": all sorts of cosmic and earthly disasters, celestial phenomena, different landscapes, and so furthermore. Among these pictures and was very kind to the Large Hadron Collider, which is believed to have been reproduced the conditions of the Big Bang. This touching an educational project that seeks to translate the dogmas of religion in the images of science, something is identical, although the mirror opposite of the exhibition Nicholas Polissky interpreting contemporary science posredstovom actually much more intuitive to most of our contemporaries, the language of mystery and wonder.
