Peripheral Visions

A leading figure in the artistic generation of 1990s Moscow, internationally acclaimed artist Olga Chernysheva documents the interactions of people and objects within the structures and spaces of contemporary Russia. In a solo exhibition at GRAD, Chernysheva focusses particularly on the experience of the individual in the neglected institutional spaces of abandoned museums and offices, transforming the gallery to mimic that of a forgotten museum with carefully constructed cases, display cabinets and a range of work in a variety of media. The exhibition is a special project of the Sixth Moscow Biennale, and the first of its kind outside of Russia.
