CO-CREATION: the worlds we live in
International Exhibition of Modern Art

 

Cosmonautics is perhaps the first social act of mankind, over which disputes and doubts have not yet subsided. Is it necessary to rush into extraterrestrial expanses, when there are so many worries and troubles on a small Earth? What can attract people in a lifeless space, where the mineral kingdom is breathing fire or numb in the cosmic cold, but so far not a single representative of life has been found, not even a microbe? Isn't going into space, as the world-famous physicist Max born claimed, a triumph of reason, but a tragic delusion of the mind? What draws people beyond the borders of the Earth, besides idle curiosity?

 

Topic: "CO-CREATION: the worlds we live in

For one artist, space is understood as the incredible beauty of the sprawling myriad of stars and galaxies. For another, it is like the unknown depths of everything secret, subconscious and incomprehensible. For a third artist, the cosmos can be visualized as some unrealized child's fantasy. And so - endlessly! Cosmogony is the whole palette of states and forms of matter.

 

The project will take the form of an exhibition and competition. The international project "ART-COSMOGONIA" involves works of painting, graphics, photography, digital art, sculpture, textiles, arts and crafts.

 

Sections:
1) Painting
2) Graphics
3) Sculpture
4) Photography
5) Decorative arts and textiles
6) Video Art and Digital Art

 

Competitive nominations:

9 worlds, 9 views
The exhibition is divided into nine categories — nine ways to see and create your world.:

1. The worlds inside are emotions and feelings as cosmic phenomena.
2. The worlds outside are real space: stars, planets, galaxies.
3. Worlds nearby are familiar things in which the infinite opens up.
4. The worlds of man and space — dialogue, meetings, stories.
5. Fantasy worlds are fictional planets and creatures.
6. Abstract worlds are color, shape, rhythm without an object.
7. Digital worlds are technologies as a tool of creation.
8. Worlds of pieces — collage, applique, mixed media.
9. The worlds of the sign are symbols, bestiary, astrology.

Each nomination is not a rigid framework, but an invitation. An artist can work in any technique, on any material, with any mood. The only condition is sincerity. We are waiting for not just "beautiful pictures of space", but personal, living worlds.
