Exhibition "Street stories" Automatic translate

Central House of Artists, Krymsky Val, 10
3 floor, 17 hall

The attention of contemporary artists to the urban environment is not accidental. The city is not just a giant piggy bank of historical and architectural artifacts, symbols, opportunities and challenges. Representing an anthropogenic landscape, the city is the "second nature" in which even the primary elements are transformed. Earth, fire, water and air undergo significant metamorphoses in the city, acquiring additional meanings and meanings.

The Artcultivator project presents the exhibition “Street stories” - a story by Russian artists about the matter and spirit of the city. In the format of "urban stories", the authors talk about its various forms - be it an anthill city or a battlefield, a refuge, a jungle or a nativity scene. The presented palette of genres and styles gives the viewer a wide range of author’s interpretations, allowing you to reflect on your own existence, as well as on trends in art.

Is there a boundary between a city and a person? How does a city dweller change under the influence of a city, its architecture, light, sounds, smells and vibrations? How does art interpret the urban environment and how adequate is this interpretation? Can an artist, without interfering in the physical body of the city, influence the reproduction of his culture?

The exhibition features more than 50 works - painting, graphics, sculpture, as well as installation and video art.
