Kandinsky Prize-2010, an exhibition of the nominees, the impression

[Vladimir]

A lot of information, so all tezisno. Courage
 
Press conference. The award is held the fourth time in two years older than the rival state "Innovation". The principle of self-nomination. May be declared by the artists themselves directly, without galleries. But before the exhibition reaches about 10%. It was about 315 applications, and in the final exhibition comprised 43 works (or 42, not one brought in from abroad). The jury was not gallerists. Jury does not receive money. Yevgeny Barabanov liked. Alla Rosenfeld, full of energy. Another invited Tim Marlow of London's famous White Cube. In politics at our gallery and the market and in domestic hands, the it not Peter, so it will be an independent mind (if he does not explain what's what).

Erofeev - this year is not a member of the jury, but he steers exposure. Decide who to hang with the comfort, and who will have to sit on their heads. Borovsky - cool. Said that an initial screening followed by pictures with no names, but at the right time anyway, "I feel Krasnodar. One of the problems of selection is that all yearn for new names, but "new names want to be like the old." Prize for Borowski says is not given for his contribution to art, that I am encouraged. Because in one category are summarized and old-seventies, and "youth" of 30-40 years. Among the nominees - Slyusarev, Alekseev, Brodsky.
In Borowski - iPhone 3G, a Backstein - Nokia E71.

In the future we plan to introduce a nomination for art criticism. There is still a problem of genre representation of new media in an exhibition format (computer art, etc.) Erofeev said that Pepperstein now sing rap, he has new projects, to think how such a thing to present to the public. Another of the novelties: next year, overseas exhibition of the nominees will be held in Spain every two years. That is, Kandinsky Prize will be annual, and in Bilbao, or somewhere else will carry the exposition, collected from a trade show two seasons.

Organizers of the printed catalog chic. There, unlike in the exhibition, all shown as it should.
