Introversion

January 31 – February 22, 2013

We imagined that artists get rid from the responsibility to society. They stopped concern about the racial inequality, the destruction of cultural monuments, the political situation in the country, the oppression of minorities.

We imagined that we’ve taken away from authors ability to use epatage, replicate their own and others successful and expressive techniques.

We invited young artists and gave no resources for their projects, except our support.

We don’t see any commercial benefits for this project.

Introversion –it’sa dropping to yourself in some sence. After a series of sharp social questions that were raised by the artists of 2000, there comes a time when questions must be addressed to your life, to yourself.

Media also changes. The previous generation showed us width assortment of these media. Now the choice became more consciously. Technical capabilities are defined not a contractors choosing, but itself, with the help of friends and like-minded persons.

Find and understand yourselfselves in your art. Show or hide from viewer the most intimate. Numerous generations of "free" artists set themselves such aims. What lifes our young and searching artists live - we will see in the project Introversion.

We are trying to feel the pulse of time, what the Germans call Zeit Geist.
