The gallery “G. O. CT ”(Exhibition Hall“ Chekhov's Cottage ”) An exhibition“ NYU'N'NYU ”, continues a series of expositions of the project“ Museum charts ”

In the exhibition hall «House Chekhov» An exhibition «NYU'N'NYU», prepared by the Gallery «GO ST» under the project «Museum schedules».

In a partial translation from English its name is read as «Nude and New». The exhibition includes drawings, executed during a very difficult last eighty years of the twentieth century, when the domestic arts is extremely discouraged Nude and very selectively NEW tolerated. In this unfavorable trend argue work 38 artists, among them the Robert Falk , Alexander Deineko , Vladimir Favorsky , Lev Bruni , Nicholas , Vladimir Lebedev , Alexander Vedernikov , Nicholas Tyrsa , Arthur Fonvizin , Boris Chernyshev , Alexander Vasin , Vladimir Veisberg , Vadim Sidura , Ninel Bahusheusk, Boris Sveshnikov , Hulot Sooster , Vladimir Yankylevsky , Garif Basyrova, Eugene Chubarova , Anatolia Slepysheva , Alexandra Yulikova , Valeria Orlova, Nina Kotel, Vladimir Salnikov, etc.

Nude, Canada, for centuries a source of inspiration and the attribute of debauchery, symbolizing fertility of useful and harmful sinfulness, voznosimaya to the status of deity and is thrown into the abyss of hell, irreducible to the commonplace academic exercise and set the benchmark high-skill, up to still is one of the most controversial pieces of art.

Historically diverse, nudity applies to the field of fine art, and to the field of sexual discourse that will undoubtedly enrich the very concept of «nude» unexpected interpretations and specific nuances. Time-limited, but the detailed content of the exhibition space «NYU'N'NYU» provides a unique opportunity to «join» to the naked body, passionately set down in the world ready sympathy national schedules of the twentieth century, where the sensual delicate Falk is adjacent to the brutally frank stuffing, gently lyrical Lebedev contrasts with the strictly domestic Roginskii, sarcastically mocking Basyrov complements mystically enigmatic Sveshnikov, and thoughtfully romantic Tyshler emphasizes the surreal configured Sooster.

In addition, the number represented in the exhibition captures implicit or explicit shaped roll with the «corporeal» Role, which, according to one foreign researchers, showed the western rock and roll, which is partly resonates with the very title of the exhibition. For example, established itself in the rock'n roll sixties «dark body» sharp sounds awesome gipertelesnosti Chubarova tracks, and unexpected pop hypostasis «innocent body» brings to mind the touching melody clumsily graceful silhouettes of teenage models in NM Chernyshev, and AN A. Stipa.

Thus, a variety of plot and the plastic nude boldly «reveal» one important idea: the theme of nudity is always poised on the brink of acute ... Elevations and plains, beauty and ugliness, hidden and frank, bliss and pain, and a romantic concept, reality and fantasy, both modern and traditional. The other embossed face of this topic is that, despite its solid historical age, domestic «flesh» genre almost always appears we naively direct unexpectedly renewed. Therefore, in Russia's artistic process concepts «nude» and «New» can in a sense be considered synonymous.

The exhibition runs until September 27 at the Exhibition Hall «Chekhov's Cottage» (Malaya Dmitrovka, 29, Building 4) every day except Monday, from 12.00 to 19.00, admission free.
