museum "Other Art", September 6 - October 6, 2011

today at the Museum "Other Art" (Museum Center of the Russian State Humanitarian University, Chayanov, 15) of the V Festival collections of contemporary art presents "line. Contemporary art from the collection of Michael Alshibaya».

curator Julia Lebedeva: exhibition shows a collection of well-known heart surgeon Michael Alshibaya.V 2004 collector and museum "Other Art" was first shown to the public collection that originated in 1986. Since then, Alshibaya and his paintings are of Soviet underground art - permanent members of artistic events. He not only showed his creation to various exhibition venues (the Museum of Private Collections, Museum of Literature, MMSI, NCCA, Gallery A-3), but he himself has frequently been their supervisor.

the collecting passion of Michael Alshibaya not limited to works of art : he enthusiastically tells about, and a unique series of stamps, old postcards and about, and about God knows what else! Alshibaya in an eternal search, it is intriguing unknown and mysterious, and he never focused on the tastes of the majority or a summary of auctions ...

Seven years after the first exhibition, the museum "Other Art" Museum Center RSUH again features a collection of Michael Alshibaya. Now another part - the actual art. The collector calls the exhibition "Line", because certain the linearity of the process of art today.

Among the chaos emerges a surprisingly original and slim number of works that emphasize the strangeness and promiscuity at the same time the cohesion of our very close artistic world of the past twenty years. A small island, where Constantine Zvezdochetova fun houses, "real" toys Aksenova and Paul "Bear in Cheburashka" Andrey Bartenev coexist with the "space" through the eyes of Sergei Shutov, hypertrophic freaks Leonid Tishkov, a globe of communism Vitas Stasiūnas and "dog" the kingdom of Oleg Kulik. Now they were all in an ideal world, one house.

Michael Alshibaya : In 1986 I began to collect contemporary art, and it soon became clear that the concept of "modern" and "actual "- are not synonymous. Relevance implies modernity in its maximum lifetime, it can be identified with the" topicality ". In other words, the relevance has a ready response to current events, including social ones. Contemporary art - it's a nuclear warhead, a crowning body runaway" missiles "of modern art. But the" head "and" body "are inextricably linked, and in my collection is contemporary art in a strictly proportional relationship to the" body "- the art of the second half of the twentieth century.
