Open Day at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art at Petrovka 25

[Vladimir]

MMCI last year was 10. On cubic meters of modern art and thousands of squares of the area under the actual scream advertising banners hanging all over Moscow. But good. Element commemorative program - a change in the main exhibition hall at Petrovka 25. There was good before. As part of the sixties and contemporary art (the last 15 years). Now removed from the exhibition a number of works attributed to the first name of the Russian avant-garde. Those who are supposed to be present in the museum for a solid, but in practice were merely a pretext for ridicule.

Now at Petrovka 25 - the doors of all rooms removed from the loop (an allusion to an open day?), And all areas are reserved for the actual art. There are first names and not the most important people, but the exposition was the schoolroom. The organizers have put "feng shui". Gone are the old stuffy and eclecticism, and the energy was very good. The proposed photo essay attempts to place accents, and the audience award - is the amount of views with the artist Ixygon, Validating Seriy, with which we watched together a new exhibition.

Osmolovsky Anatoly Osmolovsky. Bread. First series. 2007. Wood, carving, stains.
This is the most valuable first series. With such an iconostasis Osmolovskii took in 2007 Kandinsky Prize. In Reale thing certainly impressive, even without knowing the background. Due to most organic plastics. Another size matters - these great bread. Somewhere in Lucca Fountains were visually similar things, but the artists, of course, talking about various things.

Shutov Sergey Shutov. Abacus. 2001. Installation, videos, mannequins, see Vol "Abacus" - one of the most famous installations Shutava. At one of the Venice Biennale, she has made, if not a sensation, it just was noticed. And this is understandable. Impression fascinating. Complex: figure-"monks" beat bows on the screen projected tektsty prayers in different languages and is the corresponding acoustic background. About "Abacus" written dozens of texts, so that the recount will not. And that's what obychtno not write. Under the black tunic with Shutava - explained the figures dummies and drives - were allowed to photograph. Time takes its now a dozen figures bows beating just one - the rest were broken, will be repaired.

Yuri Avvakumov Avvakumov (b. 1957). Cross-inscription. 1990. Object, rusty metal. One of the best things exposition. To my taste as an absolute masterpiece. It would seem easier to nowhere, crosshair fire escapes, but the work makes return to it again and again. Well, at the level of meaning, of course, the same thing deep. No, really super. In the same breath with "bread" and mock "Abaco".

Kulik Oleg Kulik. Transparency. Square. 2007. Object. Plexiglas. Despite a fresh year of creation, transparency - is a very long plastic theme Kulik. To say more understandable - even before the man-dog. In it, if I understand correctly, a role for a background image for the effect of refraction. In this case the role of background does very strong work Shabelnikova (Rostov, South Russian Wave, Association "Art or Death", Ter-Oganyan, Koshlyakov, Konstantinov, etc.)

Nicholas Polisski Polissky. From "Snow". 2000. Land Art. Paper, digital printing. Absolutely charming cheerful thing - and to go home, on the wall. It is a pity that did not give Kandinsky this year. Job Vadim Zakharov, too, will be a little further.

Demian Kuleshov Kuleshov (b. 1975). The austere style. 2007. Oil on canvas. Суперская thing - here we concurred with Sergey Kiselev (Validating Seriy, artist Ixygon). It would seem that the plot is not winning - the miners. But the execution of bold dramatic painting. Oil lay pasty lipstick-like wax sculptures by Anish Kapoor at the third Moscow Biennale. Actually painting, without mixing techniques - a rarity in space, fought off modern art. Good job. Remember - Demian Kuleshov.

Vladimir Anselm Anselm. Asterisk. From a series of "guest workers spirit. 2007. Coal, tar. For young people - it oktyabryatskaya asterisk, with a bas-relief "mop-headed young Volodya Ulyanov. The photo star Anselm Lenin's portrait of the future is not visible, but it is there indicated. Cool stuff - I do anthracite Anselm really like.

Voligamsi Rinat Voligamsi (b. 1968). Check your eyesight. 2006. Oil on canvas, digital printing. One of those works that want to take home. This is inexplicable. Flies like flies - something good. An, no. Nightmare for the ophthalmologist. By the way, children's vision checked on graphical tables. That is not a "call letter", and painted planes, stars, the different figures.

Bartenev Andrey Bartenev. Aliens. 2004. Installation. Plastic mannequins, fiberglass. Another interesting attraction. Mirror room. The picture was taken through the slit of boxing - a system of mirrors, which "replicates" three dummy so you need a few minutes to understand where the reflection, and where the original. Likes Bartenev technological tricks - remember his acoustic interactive installation "I love you", which occupied a room in a mansion on Petrovka.

Zakharov, Vadim Zakharov. Room 44. (?) Interesting active installation of the Kandinsky Prize winner - 2009. Since the effect of surprise. When approaching a dog house on the viewer pops up with a bark collar. Women scream, men swear. Attraction. Here recall that some in the canine theme ideas are not mechanics, and blood to prove.
