SCOPE MIAMI BEACH 2017 (The Boogie Gallery participant)
The curating participation of the Boogie Gallery at the Scope Fair in 2017 was one of the most difficult since it was necessary to organize the participation of artists from different countries (Armenia, USA, Ukraine and Russia) who would present a series of their works in the largest central both of the fair. “Noise” by Nastya Miro - series of works devoted in that case to the human desire to be free from having to perform inflicted social roles, be yourself and belong to himself. Leaving behind the symbolic noise of public opinion. Artist bring to the fore a striving for freedom person. Also was presented 2 hyperrealistic paintings «Callsign Pulsar» and «Nymphaea alba». All of art by Miroslava Romanova is erotically charged. She finds inspiration in German expressionists, Renaissance painters, and Gothic artists. Anyone seeking to learn more about Romanova should attentively peer at her works and from there seek to recognize who she is and what she is about. A firm believer that art, freedom, and creativity will change society faster than politics, Romanova considers herself a citizen of the world – one that doesn’t subscribe to labels, and who is committed to the belief that art is a process where in which imagination collaborates with memory. "Lucian Freud's Sculptures" - Gurgen takes for the figurative base the classical forms of Ancient Sculpture. He plays with a contemporary notion of the body that grows from L. Freud's hyperbolism. As such, the artist unites the Ancient Idea of the body as a temple and the Postmodernist conception of the body as a mechanism of consumption. Irina Lagoshina is concerned about the “Organic Food» which has become a rarity, even a luxury nowadays. In pursuit of income, food manufacturers employ the achievements of genetics, chemistry and technologies, thus creating mutant products. Vivid and artificially beautiful, they appeal to a consumer - eat me. By selecting marine inhabitants, as they seem to be the most harmless and yet very valuable from the nutritional hierarchy point of view, the authors are researching the edible - inedible context. With the “Futbol Series”, Betirri Bengston brings to life the significance and inherent beauty of futbol. The absence of the players' image, upon a distinctive backdrop, shifts our focus to the rich detail of the values, lighting and the perceived motion of the bodies juxtaposed in competition, and it allows the rivalry and traditions of this beautiful sport to live on as timeless.
