This year’s BezGraniz festival will be built around three major activities: a unique photography exhibition named Acropolis, a diverse program of free public lectures from some of the Russia’s most prominent researchers in the field and a workshop on creating clothes for people with disabilities.
• The Acropolis photography exhibition will take place in DI Telegraph on Tverskaya str., in the very heart of Moscow. Its central mural – a major 2×3 square meters piece – was created for BezGraniz project by a great contemporary artist Irina Bordo. On this photo, the bodies of models with disabilities replicate the famous figures of the ancient Acropolis statues. Backstage photos from the photoshoot, as well as various additional content elements, form an exciting unique art project showcasing the many-sided understanding of Beauty and the variety and complexity of it’s forms in the contemporary world.
• At the same venue an impressive line of festival events will take place, including public lectures, master-classes, activities for children and conferences, — all exploring the diverse topic of body/society relations from different perspectives;
• A workshop will be held to teach both professional designers and those who have interest in fashion: this will give the workshop guest a chance to understand the specifics of cut, fabric, aesthetics and logic behind the fashion for those with special needs.
