Famous designers, artists and architects of Russia came to Tomsk. They gathered for a three-day meeting of the Union of Designers. It will take place at TSASU. The official opening began with an exhibition of projects by young architects and designers of Tomsk, who are striving to enter a large professional Union. Oksana Dolgikh is a teacher at TSASU with ten years of experience and an artist-fashion designer at one of the Tomsk enterprises. The only one who presented clothes at the designer exhibition today. She says that participation in competitions generally spurs creative aspirations. And Oksana called the desire to join the Union of Russian Designers a lifestyle that has developed in society, and remembered the phrase that first we work for the name, and then the name works for us. But in Tomsk it’s difficult to make a name for yourself.
The largest exhibition today was a festive project for the 400th anniversary of the city. It was made by the Tomsk Union of Designers. There are painted public transport, street posters with flowers and congratulations, and an artistic design for seven creative platforms where all the celebrations will take place.
Representatives of the Union of Designers, headed by Chairman Yuri Nazarov, who arrived in Tomsk, will become the final authority in discussing the artistic design of the city’s Birthday. The high jury has every right to condemn or approve. But in addition to discussing the work of Tomsk artists and designers, the guests will hold round tables and lectures for architecture students. This year TSASU will graduate its first certified designers.
Famous designers will select almost 40 Tomsk colleagues over three days - those who will be accepted into their large professional union.
