Consciousness Doesn't Have Borders Exhibition
- October 10 - November 15, 12 - 9 pm
- Sevkabel Port, Kabelny Tseh, 2nd floor
- 100 rubles
A light breeze (or not!) from the sea, long promenades along the shore, local cafes and food trucks offering everything from trdelníks to shawarmas, hangar-housed exhibitions, festivals – that’s the spirit of the industrial, historical, and yet modern Sevkabel Port. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city center, that’s the place to go.
The exhibition Consciousness Doesn’t Have Borders showcases the works of two young contemporary artists: Yulia Virko and Anthony Gelfand. You will see the artists experiment with techniques and materials: large-scale paintings and drawings, collages and videos with the surrounding industrial space becoming one mind-boggling circular labyrinth. This weekend, you have the chance to test your consciousness and love of contemporary art.
