Doping pong. Our everything!
Exhibition December 30, 2019 − March 8, 2020
Erarta Museum of Modern Art presents a retrospective exhibition of the art group Doping Pong - pioneers of digital art in Russia -“Our everything!”.
The museum visitor gets acquainted with the classics of the domestic digital art - the sensational “Olympic” series Doping Pong, sees the famous paintings “Pioneer pulling a splinter” and “My champion”. In a separate block, digital painting of the late 90s is highlighted: “Children's love of airplanes” and “Life Line”, created in collaboration with the Elton John Foundation.
The paintings “Sounds of the Future” and “The Standard Bearer” were first presented in the format of monumental reproductions. A prominent place at the exhibition was occupied by samples of secular iconography, for example, a portrait of Yuri Gagarin.
Doping Pong - pioneers of digital art, and now apologists for traditional painting. The art group was founded in St. Petersburg in 1997. It brings together journalist Dmitry Mishenin, artist PostoronnimV and historian Anna Maugli. Artists have always turned to sacred images that are rooted in culture - to fairy-tale characters, heroes of myths or historical figures praised by monumental propaganda. The roots of Doping Pong's work are obvious, but their perception is always a game with the audience, who will have to figure out where the artists play and where they are quite serious.
