I now do not quite understand the other - the exhibition, of course, without a doubt excellent, but not only this impressive historical strong Russia and the history of her art. I wonder whether an equally impressive venues in the Year of Russia in France - something else? It seems that, in the autumn Ministry of Culture is planning something.

That's what I found today in Le Figaro. I did not translate the whole article, it describes the work that you probably imagine.

The Russian-French year: the new Russian avant-garde

challenge and provocation - is the motto of the exhibition's most important contemporary Russian artists, which opens at the Palace of Tokyo (a branch of the Pompidou Centre) on June 11.

"This exhibition will enable French and European public better understand contemporary art in Russia over the past 20 years, after the disappearance of the Soviet Union. It demonstrates the integration of Russia into the international art world "- said Marina Goncharenko, Moscow gallery owner, GMG, and chief consultant Commissioner of the exhibition which is organized by the Ministry of Culture, the Iris Fund and Garage D. Zhukova.

One of the most provocative works - "I wash my hands" Kazhdan, intsralyatsiya, which depicts the public toilets with a piece of soap - a metaphor for obsessive gigienizma Western civilization. This is an unhealthy desire for purity - a symptom of deep psychological complexes throughout the nation, generated by colonial and imperialist past, as well as world wars. The pieces of soap made from marble. Kazhdan beats evpngelsie References - Pontius Pilate, wash his hands before the execution of Christ.

This exhibition, entitled "Lessons of History" will run until June 27. Its curator - Joseph Backstein. It will be exhibited and the product of AES + F, known for its installations and photographs. Dmitry Gutova dealing with an abstract metal sculpture, artist Ivan Chuikov, and Conceptual Arseny Zhilyaeva, Anton Ginsburg, Sergei Shekovtsova (?) And a group Aristarchus Chernyshova /Alexei Shulgin.

A worthy continuation of Holy Russia, is not it? Next abramlenie art.

The slogan "A challenge and provocation", worn by speculators from art, has long been covered with a thick layer of dust. And he still wants to give up on something new?
Accessories of public toilets has long been used as exhibits. Once a French artist nitstsianskoy schools, which can hardly be suspected of excessive conservatism, seeing the exhibition urinal, broke down and used a great work of advanced artistic ideas for its intended purpose.
About Dasha Zhukova, Rudkin I have already quoted the newspaper «Guardian». http://forum.artinvestment.ru/showth...=13915&page=10

With such works Russia, of course, report back, as a young pioneer, before the leaders of the world collapse.

I - on the arts and the mysteries of creativity. There is an art and a blundering, ie, that art is not.
Art - the notion of timelessness. "Life is short, art - forever."

Wash your hands before dinner.

After the lunch on Archimedes' principle ...

Submerged body displaces water equal to its scope.

I wonder how this "contemporary art" will be called so in 10-20 years? If anyone remembers this.
