COSMOSCOW TALKS

Topic: "Save Mode"
Curator: Victor Misiano

Over the past two decades, the institutional system of art in Russia has gone through a stage of formation and rapid development. It grew and expanded, sometimes outstripping its artistic resources and expert capabilities. Recently, it seems, its development has moved to a different stage. Its tasks today are no longer expansion, but preservation of what has been achieved. Is this transition caused only by external reasons? Or are there internal reasons for this? And if so, which ones? How to survive this stage correctly? And how to take advantage of its capabilities?
