DETECTIVE EXHIBITION "PLACE OF CRIME" Automatic translate

February 13 in Moscow will open a conceptual exhibition of contemporary Russian artists "Crime Scene". The exhibition will be held in the new art space in the South-East of Moscow “Printing Shop”.

The project will combine the work of various media: from oil painting - the triptych of Cyril Zhilkin “The Colombo Method” to the sculpture by Gurgen Petrosyan “The Scream”, from the study of Eva Arakcheeva “Emancipation” to the installations of the Crimean Alexander Golynsky. In total, the exhibition will feature about 20 works, including several art objects and a number of video art works.

“The artist’s work is in many ways similar to the investigation of a crime, which everyone is trying to unravel in his own way, using either new technologies or old proven methods. The exhibition "Crime Scene" is assembled to tell the viewer about the figure of a detective artist, attentive to details, with a close vision. Its participants are just such artists: each with his own method and his own means. The structure of the exhibition combines evidence collected by the authors - the meanings, and written reports - works of art. The installation “Crime scene”, which formally imitates it, but is not its essence, passes through them. Because the spectator finds the essence and nature of crimes in the artists’ reports, ”commented the curator of the exhibition, Kirill Zhilkin.

Artists Eva Arakcheeva, Olga Butenop, Yulia Vergazova, Alexander Golynsky, Kirill Zhilkin, Elisaveta Zhilkina, Mikhail Levius, Elena Minaeva, Gurgen Petrosyan (Armenia) will take part in the “Crime Scene” project.

The curator of the exhibition is Kirill Zhilkin.

The exhibition will last one month - from February 13 to March 13, 2015.
