Exhibition "Heroes" of the Russian-American artist, Dmitry Strizhov

From October 1 to October 31, 2017, the art cluster “Artmuz” will host an exhibition by Dmitry Strizhov, an artist, poet, producer, and founder of the St. Petersburg rock band “Hire a Cinema”.

The opening of the exhibition will be held on October 1, 2017 at 19:00 in the gallery "Ts".

On the account of the artist Dmitry Strizhov more than 40 exhibitions of paintings in galleries around the world, more than 30 sets for various ballet and theater productions were created, including Off-Broadway and the Vienna State Opera. Many of his works are presented in the collections of museums in Germany, America, Russia and other countries, as well as in private collections.

Working since 1990 in New York, Strizhov gained his fans, collectors and critics.

At this time, a friendship was made with the poet Joseph Brodsky, beatniks - Allen Ginsberg, William Burroughs, choreographer Mikhail Baryshnikov and many others. Releasing PROFILE Magazine (1995-2000, New York), the artist covered all aspects of contemporary art, architecture, design, music and literature. Among the authors of the magazine are Joseph Brodsky, Sergey Kurekhin, Konstantin Kuzminsky, John Narins, Joel Lobenthal, Victor Sosnora and many others.

“The habit of not tearing oneself off the ground (in every sense: from Anteev’s scooping up of forces to preferring a discreet color scheme) is a property of most Russian artists. Dmitry Strizhov managed to free himself from tradition and pulled the roots out of his native soil, giving them lightness and mobility, his roots became walking, gaining support in new art territories. Actually, it’s in his character not to lock himself inside one kind of art, realizing himself simultaneously in poetry (received a friendly comment from I. Brodsky), monumental painting, stage projects and producing good music in his company Proforma Records. He’s not one of those who “stands with two legs on the ground”, who stops in a separate section of his work, because in order to move, as they say in the East, one leg must always be in the air to begin the next step. ”
