Within the framework of the 5th anniversary celebration the Museum of Odesa Modern Art from 04 April to 14 May 2013 presents the project “Space Renaissance” by Françoise Oz and Bogdan Perevertun.
Throughout its “conscious” life, mankind in different forms asks the same question: “Who are we? What is our place in the world?”. In doing so, we understand “the world” adequately to our knowledge and skills.
With the growth of knowledge, creation of what in Russia of the twentieth century will be called the “noosphere”, the sphere of influence and claims of Man extends to the Space. The achieved accumulation of knowledge facilitates the transition to a new system. Without cosmic, inclusive thinking, humanity will not be able to overcome the current crisis confrontation “Man – Nature”
We must realise that life and the human mind are a great cosmic force. After all, as a part of nature and a participant in the great cycle of existence, man seeks to improve everything around him, regulates the processes of nature, and is himself a part of nature and its mind. Life is eternal, just as the cosmos is eternal. Life, the builder of the Earth, is increasingly becoming a cosmic actor.
Such classical and complex ideas were realised by Bohdan and Francoise, representatives of a new generation of thinking Odesa artists. They considered these problems relevant and tried to illustrate them with a combination of almost mystical, abstract video; luminous objects; images of German engravings and drawings of spacecraft.
And if we add cool music, it becomes clear that those who come to the MoOMA on 4 April at 4 p.m. for the opening of the Space Renaissance project will find an interesting event.
