Ivan Chuikov at Moscow Museum of Modern Art

Ivan Chuikov Labyrinths
Moscow Museum of Modern Art
November 3 – December 5, 2010
Ivan Chuikov has long been and remains a challenging figure in the international art scene – this is what makes him truly unique. The universally acknowledged classic of conceptual art who opened a window to Europe, ‘the prince of emptiness’, ‘the heretic of the easel’, the embodied contradiction, the dandy of postmodernism… All these titles exist simultaneously, assuming that the artist stays true to his enduring method – the combination of sharp thought and flawless plastic quality.

Delaware Art Museum
November 13, 2010 – January 16, 2011
The Delaware Art Museum presents Ultra-Realistic Sculpture by Marc Sijan, featuring 17 startlingly lifelike sculptures, on view from November 13, 2010 through January 16, 2011. Based on individuals Sijan knows well, his faces and figures capture movement and human emotion, as well as the minute details of individual appearance. Although the artist draws inspiration from the idealized anatomy of classical sculptures, such as Michelangelo’s David, his contemporary interpretation of the human form illustrates the gritty imperfections of average people.
