Katya Tsareva
Running Man 1 by Katya Tsareva - Triptych painting, acrylic on canvas, 2017

2017

About the Item

Running Man 1 is a vertical triptych, formed of 3 paintings, 40 x 50 cm each. The triptych can be seen as a follow-up on Katya Tsareva's 2016 project "Story of one White House". In that project the artist explored relations between a fictional white cubic house and its inhabitants, reflecting upon our modern day surroundings. In triptych we can see the aftermath: all inhabitants run away from that house. White House is not just a residential building, it is a metaphor - an extraneous object, so powerful that it structures the spaces around itself. In the essay "The Orgin of the Work of Art" the German philosopher Martin Heidegger talks about how the world order is shaped by the spaces we live in. The world order today is aimed at making people's life structured, like a matrix, and it seems that the escape impossible - the white walls of the house are never ending. - Katya Tsareva was born in 1984 in Krasnodar, Russia. In 2006 she graduated from Kuban State University, where she studied architecture and design. Since then Katya had become a multidisciplinary artist and in 2017 she was named as one of the top 100 young Russian artists, according to the Russian “In Art” database. Her works capture new collective narratives expressing contemporary cultural values, echoing dichotomies of human identity. Her recent solo exhibitions include: 2021 - In My White Corner / Pro Art`s Gallery / Kaluga / Russia 2020 - My Rooms / Futuro Gallery / Nizhni Novgorod / Russia 2018 - Search Me In The Flowers / Udmurt Republican Art Museum / Izhevsk / Russia Supported by PERMM Museum Of Contemporary Art. 2016 - The Story Of A One White House / GridchinHall / Moscow / Russia
