[Natalia Fuchs]

The National Center for Contemporary Art (NCCA) invites sound- and media artists, and composers to dialogue about color within the framework of the new project "Experiences of AudioVisuality" (curated by Natalia Fuchs). The first session of the project is called "The Space of Red" and is devoted to the sound representation of red color. The project will be part of the parallel program of the exhibition "Russian Red Ordinary", which opens on May 29, 2017 in the NCCA space in Moscow.

"Russian Red Ordinary" - the second exhibition of the new regional program of the NCCA, dedicated to the Kaliningrad situation and representing the total installation of one artist. Solo exhibition of Yuri Vasiliev, an artist who turns a red color into a metaphor, referring to the collisions of the twentieth century, when the drama of the intonations of red, as a symbol of life and death, changed the concentration vector from the red "beautiful" (Red Square) and the color of life, sacrifice and heroism (Old Russian iconography), to the sign of tragic omens (K.Malevich's "Red Square"), revolutionary moods and transformations (Russian constructivism). Evgeny Umansky, art director of the Baltic branch of the State Center for Contemporary Art, is the curator of the exhibition.

The project "Experiences of AudioVisuality" exploring the sound expressive means and principles, is based on the concept of synaesthesia, and in the "Space of red" it refers to the field of color music interpretations and the search for non-standard artistic solutions. Electroacoustic compositions, field recordings, vocal or instrumental compositions, experimental sound works - everything that connects visual and semantic and meaningful sound and red color as one of the main colors of the spectrum and historical symbols of Russian culture - can be proposed for implementation within one From the events of the parallel program.
