GES-2 resonance sculptures. The work of Swiss shocking artist Urs Fisher “Big Clina No. 4” stood in front of the cultural house on the embankment of Bolotnaya for exactly four years. In her position in August It will appear New installation. The author and its name have not been revealed. It seems that experts that new work will also cause a vague public reaction. Art object 13 meters “Big Clay No. 4” has been installed in 2021Shortly before opening “GES-2”. An expanded copy of clay combined from aluminum, which Urs Fisher rushes into his hand, metaphor referring to the main principles of art and creativity. Initially, Sculptura was declared a temporary installation. It is hoped that the rotation of the art objects at GES-2 will occur once in nine months, but in 2022, the leader decided to expand the explanation to “involve the conversation and talk about contemporary art with the widest audience”. And finally, the sculpture has been standing for four years. In social networks, an exciting discussion immediately began. Someone wrote that the installation is similar to a mountain of rubbish, and the others-what about ice cream. There are those who have achieved less flattering manifestations, comparing sculptures with an inaccurate husband … In general, with the waste of the life of animals and people. Now the discussions have settled down, but many people recall it in the same vein. For example: Deputy Duma State Duma Dropko Name Sculpture is Poop Poop and expressed joy about her lifting. According to the art critics, the author of the director's Telegram blog, Elizabeth Elizabeth Likhacheva, this is a typical example of high quality contemporary art and such statements say a lot:
– I participated in a number of hearings public about this sculpture. I remember how people were terribly angry, they said it was a horror-uzhas-uzhas, but why no one was banned. They call all kinds of indecent words. In general, it seems that for me, the problem of perception of an abstract form in urban space is a cultural and educational issue. Four years are “clay”. Now she will leave-something else will appear in her position, and perhaps this will also cause a public opposition, all this will be discussed. It seems to me that the change of monuments is an extremely important factor in education, including not even a social flavor, but a habit of perceiving unusual things. In general, knowing the perfect taste of the organization, I think something really interesting will appear. It seems to me that something new has appeared in the collection and I want to display it. However, sculptures, especially large and monumental, should be in urban space. It works differently if you place it, for example, in a museum space or in a park. In this sense, this experiment has the right to exist.
-Way, something big?
I hope there is, but we will see there. So far, no one knows what will happen instead of her.
The journalism service of the GEC-2 Cultural House claims that the dismantlement of an object is part of the rotation according to the plan of artwork and the development of adjacent territory. In August, there will be in this place installed New art objects. Its name and author will be declared later. Official comments at GES-2 refuse.
The plan of architects-town, Ilya zalukhin urban people believe that the new installation on the swamp embankment is not necessary:
Ilya Zalivukhin Architects Planner, Urbanist, honestly, I don't like this job, but it is not even a matter of quality of the author. The monument is still an element of the urban planning environment, the architectural environment, if we are not a place. Be temporarily, it really turned into a monument.
Urser Fisher created a large clay in 2014, after it was displayed in New York and Florence. The Florentine public could not solve the plan of this job. Fisher answered philosophy for criticism: art is what you do for it. If you see a flower, this is a flower. If you see a damn piece, this is a piece.
