Discussion “Surrealism. Museum practices"

In the year of the 100th anniversary of one of the most important phenomena in the art of the twentieth century, the Volga-Vyatka branch of the Pushkin Museum named after. A.S. Pushkin, named "Museum of the Year" by Cosmoscow, turned its stand at the fair into a playing field. Play, a well-known practice of the surrealists, was at the same time for them both a form of playful leisure and a testing ground for ideas. Therefore, the form of the discussion held by the Volga-Vyatka branch of the Pushkin Museum named after. A.S. Pushkin as part of the fair's lecture hall, one of the favorite gaming techniques of surrealism was chosen: a questionnaire. The expert panelists will predictably give different answers to the same, but hopefully unexpected, questions about their personal experiences working in an art museum. Among the questions there will be real questions from the surrealist questionnaires.
