Under the Ground

Group exhibition
9 March — 17 April 2016

Official opening — 9 March, 19.00

 

 

On March 9, the Vadim Sidur Museum will open a group exhibition of contemporary artists titled Under the Ground, which sums up a series of talks held by the participants to discover the influence of art in the Moscow Metro on the public and private life.

 

The artists explore the Moscow underground transport as a space of artistic communication originally designed with clear ideological purposes and aspirations to actively influence people. Today, even though the state ideology behind such ambitions is gone, the influence and specific impact of the Moscow Metro as an aesthetic environment is still felt by the passengers.

 

The artists try to discover the degree and limits of this influence. Their works encourage a transition, both in terms of aesthetics and content, beyond the limits of the ideological code inscribed in the architecture and decorations of Moscow’s underground stations.

 

Another important meaningful part of the project is the symbolic relation with the venue, the Vadim Sidur Museum. Firstly, it is the geographic location, which makes prolonged and regular underground journeys an inevitable personal experience on the itinerary of its visitors. And secondly, there is the revisiting of the role of Sidur, an artist who became the symbol of artistic autonomy, which can be achieved even as you work in an underground basement literally.
