“Pure Art” is an exhibition of more than fifty works by the permanent resident artists of Kvartira S Gallery, encompassing painting, graphic art, and sculpture.
Each artist whose works grace the exhibition is an independent voice with a distinctive visual language, selected by Kvartira S Gallery.
The works on display are not united by a common theme; each participant presents an individual work or series, introducing visitors not only to the artist’s aesthetic perspective, but also to their story, experience, and emotions.
“Alongside our constant search for new names and our work promoting artists, we seek to create spaces for dialogue and enjoyable encounters, encouraging people to make a habit of living alongside art, regardless of place or time.
By placing works by contemporary artists in an unexpected context and approaching the display at an unusual venue—the Varshavskie Bani—with a touch of irony, we wanted to bring art closer to the viewer and show that it can fit beautifully into our everyday lives and make them better.”
Olesya Sudzhan, Director of Kvartira S Gallery
Neither technique, materials, nor commercial considerations shaped the creation of the works in the exhibition—only the pure desire to create!
