Art-Object by Andrey Lyublinskiy Is Installed at 'Khlebozavod' in Moscow
The work 'Birdwatching' by Andrey Lyublinskiy, an artist and professor at HSE University-St Petersburg Art and Design School, is now installed at 'Khlebozavod № 9' in Moscow as a part of the project 'Here and Now'.
The annual exhibition of contemporary art 'Here and Now' has been held in Moscow for the third time. Thanks to the project, the art map of the capital is enriched by new points of attraction—the participants' works are placed in the venues and streets. They are harmoniously embedded in the existing urban landscape and make contemporary art closer to Moscow citizens and guests.
The art object by Andrey Lyublinskiy created especially for 'Here and Now' is a huge monochrome bird diluted with bright yellow, a citizen of the artist's fantasy world from his new project 'BIRDWATCHING'. In this project, the considered form is an ordinary bird-whistle from folk art. It is a ritual instrument which has turned into a child's play with time and, nowadays, turned into a sort of artefact. It attracts artists by brevity and minimalist simplicity. In his characteristic manner, Lyublinskiy decomposes this image into the simplest basic forms and recombines it.
The artworks by Andrey Lyublinskiy, the author of 'Red People', are exhibited in museums and private collections in Russia and abroad, including the State Russian Museum, the Museum of Contemporary Art 'PERMM', All-Russian Museum of Decorative Arts, the Museum of Contemporary Art 'Erarta', the Skolkovo School of Management, and Dukley Gardens (Budva).
