Best Implemented Project for a Temporary or Permanent Museum Exhibition
About the project (provided by the applicant)
The exhibition «Creation» is a biblical perspective on the creation of the world, viewed through the prism of large-scale installations and contemporary Christian art. The exhibition is spread over an area of more than 1500 square meters within the walls of the former «Ponart» brewery in Kaliningrad, which is now being developed as a public space. The former brewery's premises are large and feature unconventional shapes, making them an integral part of the exhibition – modern installations are organically integrated into the industrial spaces, while the lighting solutions highlight the texture of the brick walls and the preserved historical elements. An important part of the exhibition is the gallery, which displays works by 60 artists from across Russia on the theme of the creation of the world, including works by local Kaliningrad creators.
