The Digital Art Center Artplay media and ROSKOSMOS State Corporation present the multimedia exhibition “Cosmos. Love".
The project is dedicated to all those who are inspired by the infinity and the beauty of our universe. It is based on the story of the development of man's ideas about the universe, from the utopian idea of the migration of man to Mars to modern technologies of space exploration.
Drawing on archival footage and the history of Russian art from the avant-garde to the present day, the exhibition recreates the global sensual ascent of all humanity on the doorstep of the "new world".
At the exhibition “Cosmos. Love” visitors will be able to merge inside the recreated worlds of the past, travel to the realities of modern space and see what incredible worlds humanity in love with space can create in its imagination thanks to advanced technologies.
In the multimedia hall of Artplay media, the ideas of colonizing space have been reconstructed from architectural projects and aircraft designed by Russian futurologists in the first half of XX to contemporary shooting of landscapes of the Universe. In chronological sequence, the viewer merge into the utopian worlds of avant-garde artists who design houses at extraterrestrial orbit (Malevich, Tatlin, Suetin, Chashnik), Russian scientists whose mathematical and philosophical studies were devoted to human survival on inner planets (Fedorov, Tsiolkovsky), Soviet designers thanks to whom mankind was able to takeoff from the Earth (Korolev, Barmin, Glushko, Pilyugin, Ryazansky, Kuznetsov) and - cosmonauts whose courage and decisiveness proved that man can do anything (Gagarin, Leonov, Tereshkova).
Cinema360° - this is a total multimedia installation, immersing the spectator into the sensual world of masterpieces created by great artists. The images are projected on huge screens and on the floor as well. The total area of the projection is about 650 sq.m.
