...". In the night of 18 to 19 May the Museum of Modern Art will try to
challenge the all-known axiom. The space of the Museum there special crossroads
of cultures intersect and where to interact emotionally extroverted top Western
harmony and contemplative traditions and values of Eastern cultures. Museum
visitors will be offered a choice between a peaceful meditative atmosphere of
the tea ceremony and the Dionysian emotional contemporary art practices. It is
no secret that in the East and in the West is the time measured by the
different categories. Our visitors will have the opportunity to choose between
any two versions of sense of time: individual acceleration and deceleration of
depression. The "catch the moment" and "stop the moment"
they also will contribute original music and familiarity with contemporary East
European author animation.

21.00 - 24.00 - performance program penAtra (C) tion
Attention! Performance for adults.
In Belarus, a performance - it's more than a performance. Denominator, which
represents a particular kind of art (total and only!), In our cultural reality
has become a pronoun, replacing in some circles cries like "Wow" or
"Damn!". Tenacious myths were also due to a favorable environment for
them. On the cultural map of Minsk performance art is still blank. Everybody
has heard the word, but how few have seen with my own eyes what it stands for.
Programs of the performance penAtra (C) tion, first shown at the IV Moscow
Biennale is intended to fill this gap.
penAtra (C) tion - it is a hybrid of two words: "penetration" and
"atraction." Experience penetration itself is sometimes painful, but
art has the power to transform trauma into a fascinating attraction.
Modern Performers actively using various technological devices - from a video
projector to aerocompressor. However, the main tool is still her body. A main
theme - revealing the existential experience, which sometimes takes the
strangest forms.
