蓝鼻子，这对俄罗斯观念艺术团体组合去年成功在“韩之演当代艺术空间”举办RCS群展后，又将在“艺术ISSUE PROJECTS”举办在中国的第一次个展。蓝鼻子组合成立于1999年，由Viacheslav Mizin和Alexander Shaburov组成。他们主要的创作是简短，残酷，诙谐的影像。

在艺术方面，蓝鼻子组合体现了俄罗斯现代艺术革新的趋势——对话性与滑稽性。他们的艺术处在美学和社会反馈的交界区，并对这些区域和普遍的社会状况进行了尖锐的批判。蓝鼻子的艺术，作为一种世界观，比起社会批判来讲，不如说更像是拉伯雷式的简单，明晰的思考。通常，他们会用视频记录一些荒谬和欢闹的行为，由艺术家根据预先的准备而即兴表演。他们的作品使得日常的界限和艺术现象优雅的平衡起来。蓝鼻子嘲弄般的模仿20世纪的高雅艺术，大众文化，电视，休闲娱乐，体育观赏以及每日中神圣的仪式等等。

《小人》这个系列曾经在2005年莫斯科双年展，威尼斯双年展，04年和05年的FIAC展示过。这次，他们将为在中国的第一个个展创作这个系列中新的作品。我们将在6月份看到艺术界最好的俄罗斯当代艺术。

After the success of the group show, RCS at Han JI YUN Contemporary Space last year, the Blue Noses group is going to have their first solo show in China by ART ISSUE PROJECTS. They, founded in 1999, are composed of Viacheslav Mizin and Alexander Shaburov. The main genre is short, brutally humorous film.

In the art of the group Blue Noses are embodied the innovatory trends of Russian modern art – the communicatory and the comical. The artists work in zones, borderline for the aesthetic and social response, and with the most poignant problem for these zones and the general social state. The art of Blue Noses, as a worldview, tends sooner to the Rabelais-like simple-hearted clear thinking, than to social criticism. Frequently their works represent video-documentation of some absurd and hilarious actions, performed by the artists as improvisations based on pre-prepared roles. Their artworks elegantly balance on the edge of the everyday and artistic phenomenon, reminding one of a half-professional, half-amateur video, where the intended fiasco is indistinguishable from a dilettante blunder. Blue Noses mockingly imitate the high art of the 20th century, mass culture, television, glamour, the joy of leisure, the spectacle of sport, the sacred rituals of everyday life etc.

The very new edition of LITTLE MEN which was exposed at Moscow Biennale 2005, Venice Biennale 2005, FIAC 2004-5 and etc. will be shown especially for their first solo show in China. In June, you can see the very contemporary Russian art which was invited to the best art world.(收起)
