Moscow Biennial 2, Left Pop curated by Nichol Lee, Giorgina Jackson and Diana Bolden
For this show a variety of different elements have been put together around the subject of Lenin as Dadaist - in short: dadalenin.
with excursions into Moscow, into some texts of Lenin, into the hands of the Red Square police, into the worst of Soviet history - but last but not least, into shopping on line and in the Moscow Arabat, and even into art making.

The Exhibition
My contribution to Left Pop,consisted of my believe that Lenin was a founding member of DADA. Hence I was working on my currently ongoing DADALENIN project - unfortunately, fortunately, my sculptures got stuck in customs and cound't be desplayed, my paintings were too big and coudn't be shown, my appetite for bronze Lenin busts got frustrated by Moscow's extremely chilly price culture (nearly twice and three times as expensive than bitting on Ebay) and by beeing busted on Red Square for my project (losing some of the audio visual material)
