According to her, the creators of the new generation do not follow the avant-garde artists, but enter into a dialogue with them through conceptual reflections, ironic gestures and romantic idealism.

“The only eternal thing in our world is art, so why not use it for therapeutic purposes,” says clinical psychologist Daria Serebryanskaya. “It makes you think and feel, evokes various images and associations, activates cognitive processes, memory, thinking, affects emotional background.

Moscow Museum of Modern Art invites you to the exhibition “White Cube. August”
The presented works of different generations – playing fields, archaic symbols of the labyrinth, topographic maps, panoramic landscapes – are united by a common theme: wandering inside the “picture of the world”.
“Through art, we learn to see the hidden and realize three realities: the environment, the world of other people and ourselves,” explains psychiatrist Yevgeny Ilchenko. “Looking at the artist’s work, we touch his perception of reality. It is also important that we develop empathy, that is ability to better understand the feelings of others.

A day at the museum
Every third week of the month, the museums of the capital open their doors to everyone, but the participants of the action work free of charge only on one of the days.
