March 1, Sunday, at 14:00, an art mediation dedicated to the current exhibition of Moscow artist Arkady Petrov.
The exhibition covers the period of the 1980s-1990s, when the author's style undergoes changes following political transformations in the country. The works of one of the leaders of the "seventies generation" are close to soc-art and primitivism, but at the same time, they cannot be attributed to any single style.
During the event, art historian Darya Potyakina gave a lecture on the author's work, spoke about the features of Moscow conceptual art of the 1970-1980s, and helped participants understand such a direction as primitivism and its elements in the works of Arkady Petrov.
