Geometry of Now
V–A–C Foundation,
Moscow
The V–A–C Foundation launched its future major art venue with Geometry of Now, a festival of live sound and site-specific interventions in the space of Moscow's former power station, GES-2. Curated by Mark Fell, the project featured a series of installations reclaiming the raw structures within GES-2, an interdisciplinary lecture and workshop programme developed around topics in sound art studies and performances that reconfigure its architectural space. The festival's bi-lingual branding utilised minimal typography set against the building's stark abandoned interiors, often recalling scenes from Tarkovsky's Stalker. A book about the project featuring essays and documentation will be published in 2021. https://geometryofnow.v-a-c.ru
