The performance with participation from the audience will result in the creation of Parliament – an art object for the GUM-Red-Line Pavilion. Oleg Kulik invites all people who love contemporary art to take part in his creative process. Audience members will take part in a session of fast molding led by artist Oleg Kulik. The project will result in the creation of a sculpture from numerous elements. “With the help of your hands, you can pour your energy, whether positive or negative, into a piece of clay that we will later bake,” – says Oleg Kulik. “Spontaneous clay modeling will help to open your secret sore spots and will demonstrate the limits of the genre.”

/ Praktika Theatre show from the Man.doc series /


After his scandalous performance pieces, during which Oleg Kulik embodied the role of the man-turned-dog, the name of the artist was always accompanied in the world press by the adjectives “radical” and “provocative”. The Man.doc play presents us a different Oleg Kulik, a man who critically, without undue pathos, jokes and embellishments, considers his life. It is an honest attempt to talk about one’s own mistakes and the (im)possibility of resolving them.
