Unhurried tour of the Similarity Index exhibition
When: 29 Apr, 27 May, 8 July
An exhibition about the Earth and earth in different contexts: from the scientific to the everyday, from a criticism of the anthropocentric view of the world to gardening as a therapeutic practice of working with trauma. Juxtaposing the global and the personal, the project inspires viewers to realise their own involvement in the planet’s problems and the changes taking place on it every second. Tour participants will discuss problems raised by the exhibition, and attempt to devise their own formula of interaction with the Earth.
An unhurried tour of the Lessons in Joy and Pain exhibition
When: 13 May, 1 July
Film director Dinara Asanova was particularly interested in the topic of teenage years: her works offer a sincere and sensitive look at growing up, the conflict of generations, and learning about the world through radical gestures and resistance. The films take place in the USSR in the 1970s—1980s, and accurately convey the realities of the era, its ethical and social standards.
Tour participants will discuss with the mediator the conflict of parents and children, the depiction of women in Soviet and Russian cinema, and also why it is so important to talk about teenagers in film.
An unhurried tour of the Threads of Fate, Charts of History exhibition
When: 11, 22 July
Do we believe in fate? Are we prepared to submit to it, or do we seek to control it? What external forces influence our lives? Why are we still so interested in myths? With the mediator, tour participants study the works of four contemporary Russian artists and discuss predestination and coincidence, philosophical games, and how mythological archetypes are projected on to the modern age.

An unhurried tour of the Star Vengeance exhibition
When: 30 Oct, 25 Dec 2023
We look at the familiar figure of the lone hero who fights evil and tries to change the world. This is the figure that was the starting point for the exhibition Star Vengeance, named after the eponymous sci-fi novel by Yury Petukhov. Together with the mediator, participants will discuss the endless search for the foundations of the universe and manifestations of “evil” against which we wage a constant philosophical battle.
An unhurried tour of the Insectopedia performative installation
When: 13 Nov, 27 Nov 2023
This project is based on the book of the same name that studies the complex relations between human beings and “the other.” Here the “other” is insects which live in close proximity to human beings and have a direct impact on the planet’s ecology. Studying the fears that this alien world causes in many people, Insectopedia offers us a way to gain a better understanding of our inner anxieties, rituals and means of survival.
An unhurried tour of the The Sunset Fired a Hundred Suns exhibition
When: 11 Dec 2023, 22 Jan, 19 Feb, 18 Mar 2024
The Sunset Fired a Hundred Suns raises issues of space exploration, not from the standpoint of the latest achievements of humanity in rocketry and astronautics, but through the perspective of cultural archetypes of the space age. How did we switch our focus from humanity’s conquest of the universe to sending high-tech vehicles into outer space? How do imaginative concepts of space give rise to multiverses of the future and the hopes that we are not alone?
An unhurried tour of the A Cup of Consonances. Approaching Olga Rozanova exhibition
When: 8 Jan, 5 Feb, 4 Mar
Focusing on the works of Olga Rozanova, the “Amazon of the avant-garde,” we discuss the role of women in twentieth century art and the influence of Rozanova’s contemporaries on subsequent generations of woman artists. We also discuss why women still often remain invisible in the general cultural context, and how this issue is connected with the decolonization of art.
