In the halls of "Catherine" (art-фонд Ekaterina and Vladimir Semenikhin) opened the exhibition under the long-term social art project "Takeda. Pain and freedom". Takeda — Japanese pharmaceutical company, which among other produces drugs for alleviating the suffering of terminally and incurably ill people. Their scientists are developing substances for pain control (powerful analgesics) and other medications used in palliative medicine. The pain will — important words that must have sounded in the title. But it is not necessary to think that further conversation will inevitably be about hospital rooms, IVS and beeping devices.
"a Breakthrough" — exhibition is not primarily medical, and not even technological, philosophical, humanistic. This is the thinking of artists of the "gene of altruism", about the changes taking place in social conduct, and the hope of goodness coming biotech future.
"the altruistic Gene" — the name of the largest installations Tatarintseva — not a figure of speech. It is a phenomenon that is open at the tip of the pen is a brilliant geneticist, Professor, war hero and seasoned campers Vladimir Efroimson (1908-1989). And for the fact that the exhibition reminded of the biographies and the heroism of this man, — special thanks to the curator and artists. Efroimson explained that the sacrifice, the ability of a person to act to the detriment of themselves for the sake of non-native people, paradoxically, ensured the survival of the entire population. Physical confirmation of the existence of "altruism gene" appeared only 40 years later after the publication of Efroimson. In particular, not so long ago Israeli scientists opened "oxidatively" gene, influencing the propensity to commit selfless acts.
Kinetic biomorphic installation "Body and substance" Dmitry Kawarga in the series "the Toxicity of anthropocentrism" — is a new robotic sculpture made especially for the exhibition opened. So the photo in the catalog, it looks alive. Object Kawarga — is a kind of "Vitruvian man" of the near future: a modified, dissolved in technologies and almost completely depend on them. The skull is a complex build, replaced the mask, working neural connections and all that plastically like one giant neuron — electrically excitable nerve cell.
"Ovoid" Gregory Smith — concise, entertaining and perhaps one of the most understandable to a mass audience sculptures. It can feel: those who wish to take pictures on its background it was not immediately rebound. Atthe author, before us is endless column, disappearing into the sky (dream of Brancusi), collected from patterns of "pure" ovoid shape. The catalog says that it is also a self-portrait 42-летнего artist: "the artist is born, heads upward".
Computer symbol the boot process has become quite popular in the language of contemporary art. Only one "Breakthrough" it is used from two of the author — Aristarkh Chernyshev and Sergei Mironenko. This symbol really configures a philosophical mood. Looped and looped electronic "Ouroboros", strictly speaking, no promises at the end: all may with equal probability have ended successfully and unsuccessfully. Or even "hang" forever. Here it's all over "glitches". After the next update of the computer program a self-portrait of the artist was disfigured by a huge scar system — vivid illustration of the prices of numerous hardware and software failures in real life.
Sergei Mironenko (when-то "Pups" from art-группы "Amanita") presented on "the Breakthrough," the two works probably the diptych "the Artist wanted to say...." again with the "runner" is loaded, and a New canvas, which ironically 28 years. However both things are really prophetic in the concept of the exhibition fit perfectly. Conceptual work New — is an enlarged illustration of the XIX century. Black-белые people looking into a kaleidoscope with color of the future. 200 years is fundamentally little has changed. Instead of colored tiles we have VR goggles and augmented reality system AR. But we-прежнему incredibly weak idea of the true scale of the new.
as soon as remembered about AR, it is time to talk about the work Pushnitsky. Reproduction of the giant paintings in the catalog will not say anything about the intention of the piece. By and large it is only decoration — "backdrop" for the system of augmented reality. And her "brains" are located in a separate device. On this canvas you need to look through the camera of the tablet. Only then will it be conceived by the artist character and the whole thing will gain the right sound. New concept of working with the audience called "Painting ", and she tipped a great future. Well, "death of painting" is once again postponed.
"Freedom" Cyril Chelushkina — is a rare work which does not need electricity. Even if the light goes out, pigson his canvas will continue to fly down from the body of the truck. Work Chelushkina — modern arrangement of the gospel story, one of the Miracles of Christ, the healing of the demoniac. Talking about how the prophet were expelled many demons (out saying: "name them — Legion") from the body of the unfortunate, has allowed them to possess the herd of swine, whereupon the entire herd rushed into the sea. Ethics for the XXI century, the entourage of bloodthirsty, but the plot-прежнему life-affirming — about the victory of good over evil.
the Red Pixel Project Anastasia Alekhine — project e-cosmetics of the future. Only instead of "old school" mascara and blush — LEDs and other embedded electronics. Maybe not directly like this, but to all and goes. After 15 years of modding, electronic body modification, microchips under the skin will be commonplace. But the desire of women to look better and in the future just will not go away.
How to cope with loneliness in the world to the limit of the developed electronic communications? What can compensate for the psychological negativity? The answer of Victor Alimpiev: help music. This idea illustrates his videos 2018. A guitarist playing for the few people in the crowd, the way of harmony, work lights — a recipe for the future to combat isolation.
Artists Max The Alexey Dubinsky presented at the exhibition "old-fashioned" expressionist painting, which does not need outlet. Generators are they, and their customers — social microsite of the spectators watching art-батлом. As part of the show-перфоманса artists paint pictures, installing easels facing each other. This theatrical atmosphere, live emotions really electrify the audience, give food to exchange ideas and create new social connections.
Catalogue text to the project of Oleg Tyrkina "Head without borders" directly refers to the plot of the novel "Professor Dowell's Head" science fiction writer Vadim Belyaev. In 1925, the conservation of intelligence after death of the body looked like a neurosurgical challenge. One hundred years later, we think about the potential of digitizing, and creating digital copies, stack "a modified carbon". Potential brain hopelessly detached from a limited biological resource of the body. And create a "head without borders" is not just a beautiful dream, but a real research priority.
we were on the top floor of the "Catherine". And the first exhibited the work of the nominees of the creative competition among students of universities and art colleges "Takeda. Art/Help". In 2018, the competition was attended by 220 students from 25 countries. First prize was awarded to the work "Blue blood" Victoria Coridon from the Krasnoyarsk state Institute of arts. According to the results of selection onthe first floor exhibited more than 70 works.
