Oleg Kulik: Golden Fleece, exhibition opening

Oleg Kulik: Golden Fleece
exhibition opening
KIBLA Portal, Friday, 9 August 2019, at 7 p. m.

The personal mythology of the artist, his unique “magic historicism”, manifests a new turn in the spiral of Kulik's biography – a project of materializing actions and performances in “living paintings” with eyes and “living sculptures”, collective and ultimately corporeal.

Kulik, the “Russian dog” (Renata Salecl), a performance artist and actionist, who promoted Primal Ecology and Zoophrenia, is a sculptor and painter today.

"What is Russia today, yesterday, and tomorrow – an empire, or a democracy, the aggressor, or the bastion of spirit, the home of the “Primal People”, or an assembly of individual loners, a superpower, or an out-of-the-way province?"

The artist Oleg Kulik opens his personal retrospective offering a revision of Russia’s myths, of its history and art, and a new interpretation of his own earlier works.
