Photos from the exhibition nominees "Innovation 2009"

In Moscow in the NCCA on Zoological exhibition opened nominees "Innovation-2009» (http://artinvestment.ru/news/exhibit...innovacia.html). In the hall area with an average apartment metropolitan officials were able to show (in a slightly truncated form) all projects nominated "visual arts" and almost all youth "a new generation." The rest had to be content with recording of, and directories. Visitors to the exhibition can recall the most high-profile projects in 2009 at the booths with monitors and headphones.

By impressions so. In the "visual arts" - all as on selection. And people are venerable. From the skull Pinocchio (Makarevich and Elagina) - do not come off, but it's my theme weakness. Paper and architectural ideas Pepperteyna - just super ("Landscapes of the Future" - is from the Venice Biennale, by the way). Do not be lazy and read the inscription on his watercolors. Commit "collective action" on the same optics can not understand - should read. Collider - well, his presented by the author himself - Nicholas Polissky. But most of all like "Balaclava Courage" Sergei Bratkova. The only thing that there is something in the animal fascinating.

The youth touched Rena Effendi with the photocycle "House of Happiness. So more like the "triumphalist" Gaponov and Koteshov, but not this particular project.

At the exhibition went Vladimir Bogdanov, AI

From her left only video - teens famously jumping from a pier into the water, hiding the mangled concrete and reinforcement. And initially the audience even more involved in this senseless dash. The author has provided a staircase, the gap and break the valve at the bottom.

Sergei Bratkova gave an award for "Balaclava Courage." Decent choice. Alive-is impressive.
Is that a pity that once again failed prize Polissky, a sort of negative spiral goes. Now we have to be nominated with a new project, "Collider" has already worked twice - on "Kandinsky" and "innovation".
Yankilevsky was on the receipt from Baibakova - said that everything was technically is furnished to the highest level.

Sergei Bratkov - party most prestigious international art fairs: the Venice Biennale (2005, in 2007, represented Ukraine), the Biennale in Sao Paulo (2002), Manifesta (2004). In 2008, it was a retrospective exhibition in Winterthur Fotomuseum (Switzerland).

The exhibition "Ukraine", which opened in Kyiv PinchukArtCentre includes the best-known work Bratkova the past 15 years.

Noticeably, our artist can work in many different disciplines. Social work - video about the destitute old lady "Soup", photographs and film Vulcanoids "- about people who come to the mud resort. From staged photographs attracted the most attention provocative series of 90-ies - "Children" and "Scarecrow". The heroes of both series - the children, but they have different games. In the "children" kids play in adults: grown-up "painted and dressed in an awkward posture, in their time series caused a scandal at the artist scattered accusations of pedophilia, but the children only reflect the adult world - and thus unconsciously and funny parody him. As for "horror stories", it is photo illustrations to the Soviet school folklore such as "Children were playing in the basement of the Gestapo. The effect of increasing number of children's clothing lockers, inside which the relevant objects - "brutally tortured" soft toys. Bratkova managed to convey "sadistic" mikrosyuzhety with appropriate humor, creating a kind of Guignol, which in reality little different from the world outside the exhibition hall.

From the same category macabre humor - "Diary Chikatilo," an imitation of children's notebooks of the famous killer. And it's funny and frightening: maniac appears as a totally standard Philistine, "Homo Sovieticus».
