With her gift for delicate, empathic observation, Olga Chernysheva discovers art in the everyday. Her multimedia works tell of simple, yet wondrous people and things. Chernysheva’s work represents a new kind of realism that does not feed on a critical, subversive attitude, but is characterized by an awareness of compossibility. This relational concept, devised by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, holds that different statements, viewpoints, patterns of thought, and substances are compossible, meaning that it is possible for them to coexist in reality. Although not everything that can be imagined or conceived bears this potential, the real, extant world is the site or embodiment of the compossible. As such, it is also the inexhaustible source of Chernysheva’s art.
In cooperation with the V-A-C Foundation Moscow, the Kunsthalle Erfurt is proud to present this major solo exhibition of Chernysheva’s works for the first time in Germany. In addition to aquarelles, drawings and paintings from recent years, the exhibition also includes photos and numerous videos, as well as several new works, which will be presented for the first time.
The exhibition is accompanied by an extensive catalogue (German-English), published by Hatje Cantz Verlag.
