The exhibition Straw from the patriarch of modern art Pakhom opens the gates of the Kapustinsky Center for Contemporary Art to the sophisticated public. “The Straw, according to the author, is an exhibition about life and several tracheas.” After all, the present interferes with the work of the lungs and Pakhom finds a simple and sophisticated way of existing in an aggressive environment. “Let me go to reality!” - the artist exclaims and at some point reality answers him. An incredibly subtle and gentle message from what appears at first glance to be a brutal artist. “A straw is a little, little phone that you can call and talk to yourself.” On Nega Island, a group of artists and the public took part in a group underwater performance created by Pakhom. This video is one Day with the great artist and philosopher Pakhom.
