GROUNDING. Exhibition about the area
Automatic translateFebruary 19, at 19.00, the opening of the exhibition halls of Moscow will take place: GRUND Peschanaya and GRUND Khodynka.
"Grounding" is a substantive conversation between residents of the Sokol and Schukino districts and artists who came to its territory. Talk about modern life that has developed on the site of the village of Vsesvyatsky and its environs. This is an investigation of great legends and local myths of the capital’s territory, which remains one for its inhabitants, despite the actual division into different administrative units.
The project involves more than thirty artists, each of whom set himself the task of getting used to the environment of the district, filled with the utopian vision of different generations of Muscovites and their everyday rituals, social, ethnic and architectural features. The vision of the modern world by artists is not only romantic, but also critical, analytical and even scientific. As tools for their research, artists use a wide variety of genres: from video to sound recording, from studying the chemical composition of air to collecting historical documentation and artifacts, local history and sociological surveys. "Grounding" sensitively and methodically analyzes the reaction of the local population to the invasion of objects of modern art in their habitat.
