Exhibition GORODKLIN # 13 Automatic translate

As part of the II Biennale of Theater Arts, the Union of Theater Workers of the Russian Federation together with the State Museum of Theater and Music named after A.A. Bakhrushina, "Luzhnetskiy Hall."

The theme of this exhibition is the fictional city of KLIN, a city of artists whose mental map “wedges” into the familiar Moscow reality. The artists of the exhibition, Maria Pavlenko and Nika Dundua, set up an experiment: a theater artist consciously or intuitively reflects fragments of reality, the environment in which he exists in his scenography. Together with the participants, the authors of the exposition plan to explore the topography of each project and find places in the city that resonate with the scenographic decision of the author. The exhibition will feature mock-ups, sketches, art objects and installations, as well as photographs dedicated to the relationship between scenographic design and the urban environment. These are the projects of thirteen authors: Maria Berseneva, Ekaterina Galaktionova, Irina Deryabina, Alexandra Kuznetsova, Zilia Kanchurina, Natalie Kane Pangilinan, Alexandra Pasternak, Maria Plavinskaya, Victoria Sorokina, Elena Mikulinskaya, Svetlana Goryacheva, Georgi Khomnytnika students, Georgi Khomnychna students, students Studios of Moscow Art Theater, RATI-GITIS, HSE School of Design, KMTI Cherry, British Higher School of Design.

On the eve of the exhibition, SEPTEMBER 8, ON THE CITY DAY, the installation “THEATER OPTICS. PREPROJECT OF EXHIBITION GORODKLIN # 13 ”, consisting of five interactive objects designed to open the viewer new ways of perceiving reality. Each of the objects focuses the viewer’s attention on a fragment of reality: by analogy with the theater portal that separates the stage, the scene of the performance from the auditorium, the objects delimit the surrounding space, turning some citizens into actors, others into spectators, and everyday life events into theatrical performances. Five locales. Five stories that unfold here and now. Five new perspectives on what surrounds us. Five separate performances in the proposed circumstances.
