Huh, easy enough. You gave this task (so strongly connected with my blog topic) – and I just used our 8th March party. I actually wonder if some foreigners really read me – this topics will be so strange for them. Well, actually this story starts long before the photos… Because our group has total…
Why “national identity” kills art?
Do you really want your art to be distributed only among the few thousands? To be famous only in one-two countries? Well, I think this is not cool. If you are doing art (I’m talking only about story-art – films, books and games), you must think in wide-scale – not in the borders of one location. And well,…
Big-big-big Albats
Hey-hey, my little, sweet, precious bastards. Once again I have to show you the might of my bipolar disorder – and write an article on the absolutely random topic – still remembering the fact that this blog is about art! But I get used to that. You know, it’s hard to live with such a…
Should art say something?
Do you know what PMSS is? Oh, it’s easy. It’s “profound meaning search syndrome”, “синдром поиска глубинного смысла” in Russian. Some disease that all literature teachers are infected by. Every time they say about any part of the book “Oh, what a deep meaning, ah, ah, ah”. When they say so it seems that they…
Nailing balls to the street is a form of art
Many people hate modern art. It’s pretentious, not understandable and strange. But it’s at least an art. It’s a book, it’s painting, it’s sculpture. Most people think about art not as about some principles or ideas but as about some concrete things – like, again, sculptures, paintings and books. Some people will add something, some…
Very attractive headline
As you all know, this blog is about art – and it was created for the subject “New media”. And what can be more related to art and new media than a story about the random thing? Oh, I don’t know. Maybe articles about art? No-no-no! I’m pretty sure, that I don’t have to write…
What’s wrong with our cities?
What’s wrong with our cities? Why they are so grey and dull? I want to share with you this video, guys – and say some thoughts on this topic. In fact, this channel, ArtBlanche, was a huge inspiration on me when I created this blog. It showed me that you can dive deeper into art –…
What if I bring an upside-down urinal to the museum?
The Year of 1917. Society of Independent artists organizes the exhibition – and says that work of any artist who pays the fee will be shown at this exhibition. Anyone who pays the fee? Ok. Marcelle Duchamp, a famous art critique, sent the upside-down urinal with his sign. And somehow it was like an explosion. Art experts at…
How avant-garde changed art?
Funny thing. Almost a century ago the avant-garde art appeared. And still, it gets so much attention – and so much love & hate. It totally changed the art – and no one can say undoubtedly for good or for bad. But how it changed it? Why so many people still compare “classic” and “modern”…
Our first project
Wow, you gave us so many points – I don’t know from which to start. More importantly, I don’t know how to structurize this opus and make it readable! Should I just make it like a list? Or maybe find some other way? Anyway, I guess that this is the first time when I violated…
