Exhibition of Sofia Akimova and Svetlana Malakhova "NUDE" 18+ Automatic translate

On September 25, a group exhibition of Sofia Akimova and Svetlana Malakhova "Nudity" (18+) will open at the Exposed Art Center.

The NUDE exhibition focuses on female nudity throughout art history. The exhibition will raise questions of contemporary debate such as feminism, body image and identity. Artists use a variety of colors, textures and techniques to emphasize and reinterpret female nudity and encourage viewers to look at the subject from different angles.

Alena Alekseeva, curator of the Nude exhibition, noted: “In the last century, the status of Western women has changed a lot. The circumstances of life, independence and intellectual freedom have changed. Women are no longer deprived of choice, the harsh constraints of ancient society. Most of the artists of the past preferred to portray a woman as a passive and touching heroine, while the focus of contemporary authors is shifting towards militancy and power. "

The exhibition will be a visual proof of the progress taking place in the art world.

For example: from 2008 to 2018, only 14% in the 26 most visited museums in the United States according to Art Agency, Partners, but this percentage is growing every year. And also a reflection of broader cultural views. Movements like #MeToo have become widespread in recent years. In support of this movement, the artists contributed one work to the "Meet for Charity" charity auction. The funds will be directed to the network of women’s mutual aid "You are not alone".

The completeness and versatility of the perception of images is achieved by the accent in the form of aromatic compositions that emphasize each female archetype. The visual and the olfactory here are intertwined into a single synthesis, giving rise to a truly unique sensory experience for the viewer.

The exhibition will run from 25 to 28 September at the Art Center Exposed, Moscow, st. Shabolovka, 31G. Visiting time from 12 to 19 hours daily.
