Museum Curator Lora Kucher presents German Artist Fleckenstein
Conceptual exploration of the modern people’s lifestyle to be shown in St Petersburg, Russia: “New Way of Life” by German artist Kurt Fleckenstein: May, 23 - June, 21, 2009 / opening May 23 at 4pm at Museum of Nonconformist Art:
(firmenpresse) - The exhibition project by a prominent German artist Kurt Fleckenstein represents a conceptual exploration of the modern people’s lifestyle. The author intentionally calls it “New Way of Life”, meaning the fall of the “Iron curtain” followed by capitalism thoroughly gaining the eastern part of Northern Europe and changing the people’s life radically.
The artist does not suggest any particular ways of
solving the concrete problems, but just comprehends the consequences of capitalism boom for people and the environment in an artistic and esthetic way.
The project consists of three parts which will be exposed in the three halls of the Nonconformist Art Museum, united into the single context by means of clear conceptual ideas. The parts (“Red Box for Freedom”, “Chess – Game of the Kings”, “New Way of Life”) show the artist’s successively developing reflection on man’s freedom conditioned by his existence in the today world.
