Oleg
Kulik
Born in Kiev in 1961 and now living in Moscow, Kulik came to international
attention with performances including ‘I Bite America & America
Bites Me’ in which he spent two weeks caged in the Deitch Gallery,
New York, pretending to be a dog. His animal mutant and zoophilic performances
of the nineties
established him as Russia’s foremost artist anti-hero and were
created in response to the social, economic and political flux which
gripped his country for most of the nineties. Many Russians see his
work as a mirror of their times. As their lives have changed, so has
the nature of Kulik’s most recent work. His photographic exhibition,
‘Dead Monkeys’, did not involve the artist on his hands
and knees, biting the visitors. next>>>
Why
Oleg Kulik chose The Blue Noses:
‘The Blue Noses is the most interesting current art phenomenon
in the post-Soviet Union. This nonserious form of art addresses very
serious subjects.’
