© HCCIOn Thursday, June 9, in the State Center for Contemporary Art (HCSI), the Dada festival will open in Moscow, which the GCCA holds together with the State Museum V.V. Mayakovsky.
In the center of the festival, the exhibition "Dada", reports the GTSIS . It will present the works of leading Dadaist artists and those whom they influenced: Marseille Dyushan, Max Ernst, John Cage, Yannis Kunellis, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Hans Richter, Alexei Kruchenykh, Ilya Kabakov, Hermanna Vinogradov, Andrei Monastery and many others.
The exhibition not only gives an idea of the culture of Dadaism and its followers, but also immerses the audience into the world of chance, unpredictability, revealing the main semantic focus of the Dad, the natural, free behavior of a person as a counterweight to rational standards.
According to the curators of the festival Vitaly Patsyukova and Anastasia Kozachenko, it is important today to talk about dadism as “imagery, which is included in almost all integral strategies and combines acoustics, textual and behavioral forms in its structures. We can say that modern performance not only carries this tradition, but develops the main genetic codes proposed by the legendary Zurich group from Kabarev Voltaire. "
The program of the festival has lectures, performances, concerts and other events. Among them:
Partners of the festival: the Embassy of Switzerland in Moscow, Goethe Institute in Moscow, the State Central Theater Museum named after A.A. Bakhrushina, World Chess, Moscow Art Theater School, Gari Tatintsian Gallery, Summer Foundation
