The gray zone is an urban environment devoid of an attractive identity - the peripheral areas of megacities that lack cultural “points of attraction”. The exhibition hall, being one of the cultural centers of the region, draws residents into dialogue with art.

Public art project in the open air in the Gardeners Park (in May 2013 the park became part of the Kuzminsky Forest Park) - this is a kind of platform for communication and exchange of ideas. Along the central avenue there are art objects: stylized gray “windows” by analogy with the “windows” of the statuses of popular social networks with questions to residents. Everyone can write their answer with a marker in the "window".

14.30-14.45 Departure to the trade and construction complex "Kashirsky Dvor".

14.45 - 15.30 CONTEXT OF HABITATION. Public art project on the territory of the Kashirsky Dvor shopping complex

Construction shopping complexes are closely connected with the arrangement of space for living and working. Artists pay attention to a person’s place in the urban network, focusing on his true needs and the nature of things.

CONNECTOR installation was performed by Marina Zvyagintseva from sewer pipes and placed on the facade of the shopping center. The artistic image is based on the idea of ​​a network or web, which is often found both in nature and in urban infrastructure: a street-road network, territorial connectivity, the Internet, the "network" of underground communications, the metro, and the telephone network, which entangle a city dweller.

The installation is planned to be nominated in the Guinness Book of Records, as the largest art structure of construction pipes.

An interactive tour of the art quest created by contemporary artists from building materials. The game includes art objects inside the building and one large-scale open-air object:

Installations: “A bed of roses” (Marina Zvyagintseva), “Fish” (Maria Kalmykova), “Bio-robot” (students of the industrial design department of MGHPA named after S.G. Stroganov).
