Description
The project is to be presented at the 14th International Architecture Exhibition, titled 'Fundamentals'. The project is meant - through the example of the famous Russian artist - to draw attention to the fundamental aspects of the art of painting and the structural concepts inherent to it - color, shape, construction. Experiments carried out by Roginsky while being in exile, were mostly focused on the basic ideas of fine arts. Exhibition comprises 8 sections, each of which represents one particular artistic challenge Roginsky met at some period of his life. At the same time, curators had no intention to stick with general framework of chronology and were guided mostly by substantial, ideological means in presentation of Roginsky's diverse artistic legacy. About 120 Parisian works of Roginsky are allocated in sections: "Alphabet of two-dimentionality", "Interior. Landscape. Figure in space", "Combating art", "Dimension of emptiness", "Archeology of construction", "The Fabric", "Object and form", "Returned painting". The uniqueness of the project is defined mostly by the fact that for the first time the Mature period of Roginsky's art is presented so fully and reflexively, accompanied by many rare photo and video materials. This will not only acquaint the international public with miscellaneous work of Roginsky's Parisian period, but also give the perspective of its innovative, revolutionary nature.
