The Week of Contemporary Art.Dedicated to the 15th anniversary of "Dzyga.The task of the Week was to grant access to contemporary art to all intereted. The ask was even overfulfilled: to visit all the proposed actions was quite impossible both phisycally and emotionally, because many actions were so powerfull that provided a harge of energy till the end of a day. The wek started on Sunday, (September, 14) with an exhibition "The gardens" of the most powerful Ukrainian graphic artist Pavlo Makov in "Dzyga's" art gallery. This is not the first time the artist develops the theme of gardens. Recent year he instaled an exhibition "The gardens: pos-empirean confusion" in Prague, and during this one presented the same works titled "Gardens and parks of Eastern Ukraine and Crimea" in Kyiv. In Lviv the works were exhibited for the first time. The exhibition consists of series of etchings and few collages. This stamp-and-paper anthem to the park-and-garden art attracted a lot of fans of both art in general the the artist in particular. On Sept 15th in the Municipal Theater common project of Oleg Tistol and MykolaMacenko "Museum" was opened. Its curator was Pavlo Gudimov, the chies officeer of "Ya-Gallery". Yet in the early 1980-s, when there was no certain vector of Ukrainian art, the artists developed their art programme "NatsProm" ("National Industry"). Using the pop-art strategy they originally interpretate mass stereotypes, illusions and dreams. In the theater spacewith its Soviet era rudiments their ironic interpretations looked opportune and lively among everithing one can see around. "The artists rarely reproduce images, they rather produce them themselves, - annonates the project famous Ukrainian art criticist Halyna Skliarenko. Their world is exaggeratedly illusory, built on a subtle feeling of stylistic rippling, thus any quotation can not only gain a different meaning, but also be transfered into another context and gain an unexpected uniqueness. |
