In the gallery "On Shabolovka" Association "Exhibition Halls of Moscow" will open the exhibition project "Politics of fragility".
The exhibition is dedicated to the subject of fragility of human life and instability of consciousness. Almost all people experience depressive states, but at the same time in wide circles it is considered a manifestation of personal weakness. The works presented at the exhibition are an attempt to reflect the connection between the inner world of man and the surrounding world of constant acceleration, increasing the pace of economic global development.
The curator was Boris Klyushnikov, a young philosopher, teacher and art critic, who attracted contemporary artists, musicians and poets to participate in the project. The authors reflect on the depression and fragility of human consciousness both in the historical-cultural and in the modern social context. Guests of the exhibition are invited to a dialogue on rethinking the meaning and distribution of the phenomenon of depression in historical and economic perspectives.
Boris Klyushnikov: “The fact that people and things are capable of breaking is still beyond knowledge and experience, causing a feeling of unforeseen force majeure. The people and objects around us are evaluated only as “actors” driven by desire. The moral duty is the manifestation of speed, the removal of desires to the surface, sociability and inclusion, while the slightest failure is perceived as a personal misconduct, a responsibility that everyone bears himself.
We break, seize, exploit, disable the surrounding reality, largely due to the fact that we remain blind to the weakness and limited plasticity of the world as categories of collectivity.
In this project, artists, poets, musicians and intellectuals will present the possibilities of repoliticizing the fragility category in the modern world. The question that arises before the community can be expressed very simply: can we think non-violence, inability, non-inclusion positively, that is, as a gesture, and not as pure negativity? ”
