Pieces by established, recognized artists Boris Kazakov, Yuri Vasiliev and Ludmila Belova, Marina Alexeeva, Dimitri Lurie are joined by early works by Maxim Svishev, Masha Sha, Anton Khlabov and the “Upward!” community – each embodying artistic development within the age of digital technology in Russia.

GROUND Solyanka is a gallery and a workshop with a focus on development and promotion of innovative forms of contemporary art and culture. Since December 2018 it has been led by artist and curator Katya Bochavar who has introduced a cross-disciplinary approach into the gallery’s practices. GROUND Solyanka is a full cycle project. Artworks are not only exhibited here but also conceptualized, created and distributed. In line with this mission, the gallery offers artist residency programs in areas such as livre d’artiste, sound art, contemporary music and dance, performance, installation, literature and contemporary theatre. Essential to the gallery’s practices is the ASK project (Archive of Sensory Knowledge) dedicated to collecting and museumification of digital art.
