On December 3, Alexander Bolshakov's photography exhibition "Sometimes They Come Back..." opened at DiDi Gallery.
The project features 40 photographic works from the "Talvi," "Syksy," "Kevät," and "Kesä" series, named for the seasons. They describe four journeys of dinosaurs and the photographer into the cold and inhospitable Karelian forests. These collective actions, within the great late-Soviet performance tradition, are either a joke or a genuine escape into non-places in the guise of non-humans. Who are we behind the mask? The people we once were, or ancient animals?
For more information about the exhibition, see the "Exhibitions" section.
St. Petersburg, Bolshoy Prospekt V.O., 62.
