AES+F Open Their First Survey Exhibition at Musée d’Art et d’Histoire, Genève

Prominent Russian art group AES+F is about to open their first survey exhibition at the Musée d’Art et d’Histoire in Genève, Switzerland.

The exposition, which opens on May 17, will display all of the group’s major works for the past ten years – including video installations, digital collages, sculptures, and paintings.

AES+F are longtime friends of .ART and were early adopters of the .ART top-level domain. Active since 1987, the Russian collective consists of Tatiana Arzamasova, Lev Evzovich, Evgeny Svyatsky, and Vladimir Fridkes, who joined in 1995. Throughout their time as a group, AES+F have developed a unique narrative via the introduction of mythological and religious allusions, as well as quotations about European art from the Renaissance through to the 18th century, into their works. Their timeless cultural code has integrated flawlessly into the aesthetics of video games, technology, fashion, and cinema.

Since ‘The Last Riot’, a video presented at the Venice Biennale in 2007, the heart of their work has been staged digital photography that is used to generate spectacular artsy videos and animated contemporary frescoes. The survey exhibition has been organized around the group’s most recent videos, ‘Allegoria Sacra’ (2001-2013) and ‘Inverso Mundus’ (2015) and you are invited to partake in the immersive show which reflects upon the  group’s baroque and protean creations from the past ten years.
