On December 25, DiDi Gallery presented the project "Crisis in Paradise" Igor Tishin, one of the most significant contemporary artists of Belarus, who has been living and working in Belgium for more than 10 years. Despite this, all his material and imagery, subjects and objects for his paintings, installations, photographs remain Belarusian: they are directly connected with the post-Soviet realities of the 90s, with the political and historical aspects of today.
The background of many of Igor Tishin's easel works is a photograph. This "underpainting" becomes a field for energetic splashes of paint, which enliven it with abstract forms and inscriptions.
You can find detailed information about the exhibition and download the brochure at in the "Exhibitions" section.
