"Most of the" escape "from reality to the" cloud ", the exhibition inevitably raises the question of where the art work ends and its documentation begins, and how the project can continue its life after its completion - online and offline," says the curator of the exhibition Alexander Burenkov. - In a world saturated with online networks, communications and visual blogs, the documentation of art works acquires a different degree of visibility and recognition, spreading through new channels of distribution. Maximum mobility and reproducibility are essential for the existence of art today. "
