Exhibition Jolie Alien “Dry Nettle”
When: to October 16
Where: at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art
The museum, with the support of the astra gallery, will present an exhibition by the artist Jolie Alie. Jolie Alien’s first personal museum project brings together the work of the past few years. In Jolie’s art, symbols of modern culture coexist with personal myth. The lack of perspective, the imitation of childlike simplicity and the expressiveness side by side with surrealistic images create a special feeling of turbulence.
The original idea of the exhibition was based on the concept of the Garden of Eden “Divine Comedy” by Dante Alighieri. The garden became the starting point and collective image of the entire project. At some point, he himself began to create semantic connections – growing, mutating, withering and reborn, he captured the spaces of the exhibition halls, entered into a dialogue with the works and went far beyond the connotations of “paradise”.
Exhibition “Autarky” by Misha Burov
When: from September 9 to October 16
Where: at Ruarts
Misha Bury is a Russian multidisciplinary artist. Bury works with sculpture, assemblage, painting, video and installation. He creates his works from found materials: waste from advertising production and printing. In his works, the artist touches upon such issues as the culture of mass consumption and ecology. Misha duplicates the patterns of paper scraps and fills the canvases with them to the eyeballs, making the paintings seem to swell, ready to burst out and fill the room with contents. And sculptures reminiscent of human figures, made in the good old tradition of plastic dynamism, are just waiting for the chance to turn around, simultaneously presenting all potential vectors of movement, all possible coverings of space.
Performance “Holes”
When: September 15-16
Where: in the Brusnikin Workshop on the stage of ShDI
Brusnikin’s workshop on the stage of the ShDI at Novoslobodskaya in Moscow (former CIM) will present the first premiere of the new season – the play “Holes” based on the play by modern playwright Lydia Golovanova. Alexei Martynov, actor of the Brusnikin Workshop, puts on a philosophical comedy about the everyday work of a person who feels himself a part of the boundless Universe. His colleagues, actresses Anzhelika Katysheva and Anastasia Lebedeva, will play in the performance.
Performance “Fight”
When: September 12 and 29
Where: at the Oleg Tabakov Theater
For the first time in Russia, the Oleg Tabakov Theater presents a performance based on the David Lindsey-Hébert comedy Ripcord. In the editorial office of the theater, the comedy was called “Fight”. The battlefield is a room in a boarding house for the elderly. In the left corner is the snarky old woman Abby, in the right corner is the cheerful old woman Marilyn. The reason for the battle is a radical dissimilarity of characters. The fight will be without rules, so all means are good.
In the course are terrible tests, cruel “setups” and ruthless practical jokes. The free fall into the unknown begins. Let’s see if the “ripcord” will work and if the sworn friends will have time to “enjoy the views.”
Concerts “Sea of Music”
When: all September
Where: in Moskvarium
