ABOUT

V-A-C Foundation, a not-for-profit Moscow-based institution committed to the international presentation, production and development of Russian contemporary art, is proud to present the exhibition Pawel Althamer and Anatoly Osmolovsky: Parallel Convergences. This unique project brings together for the first time the work of these artists—one Polish and the other Russian—both of whom are from the generation shaped by the decisive shift from communism to post-communism, experienced in Russia and the Eastern Bloc in the early 1990s, and whose work share many interesting parallels. The exhibition pairs Althamer with Osmolovsky in a fluid conversation that acknowledges the divergences between their works as well as the many similarities and overlaps. Despite the different forms and media they adopt—ranging from sculpture, installation and video, to more politically engaged actions and social forms of practice—the work of both artists often pivots around the idea of the body and modes of perception.
