project description
The work of Olga Kisseleva (video installations, sculpture, photography, and also sociological dealings) is based on questions of contemporary thought which she subsequently discloses in her projects. In her project for the 2nd Moscow Biennale, Olga Kisseleva, together with her pupils, touches on the particular theme of the artist as a fighter, seeing the exhibition as a means of having an effect on society. In this project, thought up in Sorbonne at the time of the agitations of 2005-6, this group of young researchers united two worlds that do not intersect. The viewer wanders around a labyrinth with arrows, reminding one of the layout of videogames with their various zones, levels and scenarios of the possible development of events. Finding himself amongst constantly changing plots, simultaneously concerning the conscience and the subconscious, the viewer is taken hostage by information contained in visual and audio forms.
