"The Russian word" freedom ", written in Latin letters, for a foreign audience - just a collection of letters, some code, which we expect to decipher," - she says.

At the same time, the curator says that the notion of "freedom" has lost its fullness in the philosophical sense, because the processes taking place in contemporary art. Therefore, some reflections on the theme of censorship is inevitable because of the prosecution in Russia, curators and artists.

Exhibition space Spazio Carbonesi was founded in Bologna Palazzo Zambekkari couple of years ago. Since then, there are performances, individual and group art exhibitions, a common feature of which - the interaction of artists with a classic old building.

Tradition and decided to observe at this time.

"Each author has been allocated a separate room, which he could for the project as you see fit, to build its dialogue with the surrounding space," - said Khan.

According to her, especially the principle of selection of authors was not, but that among them a good half - the architects, not by accident.

"In this case, welcomed spatial approach to art, and this is not an easy task for many artists," - says the curator.

For example, Yuri Avvakumova got the largest room in the Palazzo - ballroom.

"Initially, before him stood a very difficult task - besides the fact that the ceiling of the hall an old fresco, so even with last year, there already is installing Dmitry Gutova" - says Hahn.

Draft Avvakumova "Minefield" represents a floor projection of the sky over Bologna on the opening day, where the stars turn into landmines and specially fenced, restricting the movement of the hall.

And on the idea of Assa Cyril and Anna Ratafevoy at all times of the exhibition, each room will be a kind of honor guard as a mausoleum, in stylized military uniform. Their task - to keep the peace and quiet and prikrikivat rasshumevshihsya to viewers.

One of his favorite projects, the curator calls the notion of Roman Sakin, known for his kinetic objects. For the Italian exhibition he produced Khrushchev space with retractable walls of white parallelepipeds.

On the one hand, explains Khan, is the pressure of limited space for the artist's personality, but on the other - the study of stereotypes of beauty that are here represent the very moving blocks.

Simultaneously with the exhibition Svoboda is the Bologna Art Fair, this year celebrates its 35 th anniversary.
