In general, Yuri Avvakumov swearing. Sometimes, in the case. Output, in his opinion - it lay oneself out to the first class Biennale, such as Venice. A key opportunity to present new ideas and improve the status of national art. And this time like:

- A perfect example - last year's exhibition, Jean-Hubert Martin in "The Garage".

- Oh, it was so much unknown Russian audience, and above all coherent, spatial concept, which was already in place overgrown with different relations, history, associations, the smells ... And yet exposure to the "garage" - is the product of hard-working supervisor. Dima Tsvetkov told how many times he changed under the supervision of Martin, his installation as long as she did not look like the best in his artist Tsvetkov life. Such a curator - happiness for the artist.
