Exhibition by Pavel Otdelnov "Deserts. 2002-2017" Project "A mobile museum of one painting". First retrospectives

March 3 at 19:00 in the Gallery "Belyaevo" Association "Exhibition Halls of Moscow" opens an exhibition of Pavel Otdelnov "Deserts. 2002-2017 ”, which continues to present contemporary artists who actualize the“ pictorial picture ”in the space of various new media within the framework of the Mobile Museum of a Picture project.

“Deserts. 2002-2017 "- this is the first large retrospective exhibition of Pavel Otdelnov, which makes the artist stop and take an intermediate result, take a fresh look at his art, remember how artistic ideas and projects emerged from personal stories, how they changed, transformed, grew into something larger and grander. Such a retrospective approach allows viewers to penetrate the artist’s “workshop” and get acquainted with the author at different stages of his creative formation.

Deserts, the author thinks as a space without a hero, a picture for him is the space through which the viewer must go. These are “non-places”, transit zones, past which people pass or temporarily stop, without attaching special importance to their surroundings. “Desert” is, finally, the name of one painting. Written in 2010, it was she who, according to the author, became a creative impulse for many of his subsequent works.

As the curator of the exhibition, Elina Mukhina, notes: “Pavel Otdelnov’s painting is really relevant: on the one hand, it works on the ordinary, familiar field, seen for the thousandth time by everyone. The post-Soviet dull urbanism of the city outskirts, the broken dream of the architect Corbusier. But intonation is important in the artist’s approach. Indeed, for most viewers, such a landscape is the "Homeland", the starting point of personal memories. And it is from this point of view, very accurately found by the artist, that everyday life can be elevated to truly epic heights. "
