Exhibition "Further will be further" Automatic translate

On August 15, the Nagornaya gallery of the Moscow Exhibition Halls Association will open the multi-exhibition “It will be farther ahead”, which brings together three projects located in different halls of the gallery dedicated to the idea of ​​reflection on the theme of humanity after the events of the first half of 2020.

The past six months have launched a process of ubiquitous analysis of both society as a whole and the individual in particular. It was difficult to imagine such a number of articles, dissertations, conferences on various universal topics before: sociologists are introducing new terms, psychologists are investigating the behavioral characteristics of a person locked in four walls for three months, art critics are exploring how creativity develops in conditions of observing the world from an apartment window and lack of other external impressions.

The curators of the project drew attention to various aspects of the post-pandemic situation in the world. Their exhibitions reflect not a one-sided view of events, but a multifaceted analysis of what is happening. Each room invites unique reflections. At the exit, the viewer is left with an ordered set of impressions, finding answers to some questions and asking himself new ones.

In the first hall of the exposition there is a personal exhibition of the "Non-art" group called "Suare", where the curator Irina Shtoppel, together with young artists (Nikita Shtoppel, Ivan Remizov and Nikita Kuravtsev), analyzed how the pandemic affected young people. The artists, being representatives of a skate culture that involves active movement, found themselves closed for months within four walls and concentrated on thinking about how society views their subculture. This reflection has resulted in both artwork and the idea of ​​a performance designed to build bridges between a culture that was previously considered marginal and what society perceives as art. The performance will be presented at the opening day and then continued to be broadcast at the exhibition.

Elena Sheveleva’s curatorial project "Calm After the Storm" in the second hall of the gallery is aimed at showing viewers the spiritual beauty of everyday life. Often, in pursuit of impressions, humanity strives for long distances, without attaching importance to the environment around it every day. During the three months that Elena and the artists of the exhibition Polina Ishkhanova, Yulia Cherekaeva and Anna Rastorgueva spent at home, the desire to find beauty in the ordinary reached a critical level. The works presented at the exhibition reflect the conclusions reached by each of the authors: Anna paid attention to objects that are so familiar and at the same time unique; Polina showed in a new way the image of a woman in a seemingly completely unattractive home environment; With her abstraction, Julia delved into the value of emotional experiences.Elena Sheveleva concludes the exposition with a collective diary of a woman, collected from the sent photos of diaries of women of different ages and countries.

In the third room of the gallery, Dina Tsypina’s project "The Law of Preservation of Information" is presented. Here, the artist, together with curator Elena Kuprina-Lyakhovich, reflects on the possibility of the existence of a law of preservation of information, which is expressed in a kind of social and family programming through the transmission of traditions not only in the generally accepted sense, but also in the field of visual and object codes. “Why are we making jam and planting cucumbers? How does our memory reproduce models of attitudes towards the objective environment around us? When does time fly and when does it freeze? It is believed that time is linear, but reproducing actions, the result of which interests us only on an emotional level, we find ourselves in a different time, if not in another dimension of life. "

In six months, society has learned to live in a constant viral threat and has moved into the phase of accepting what is happening. But what’s next? The curators of the multishow answer: "It will be further."

The opening day program includes a performance presentation, where representatives of the skate movement, dressed in tuxedos and tailcoats, will answer visitors’ questions about their culture, perform an opera aria and read excerpts from classical works.

Artists - Dina Tsypina, Anna Rastorgueva, Polina Ishkhanova, Yulia Cherekaeva, "Not Art" group.
