Contemporary Artists from Moscow
Imago Mundi - Luciano Benetton Collection

Texts by Luciano Benetton, Liliana Malta, Enrico Mascelloni, Andrei Misiano

Imago Mundi’s new collection is dedicated to Moscow, the largest and most populous city in Eastern Europe and in the entire, immense Republic of Russia. The 246 artworks, from advanced experimentations to more traditional styles, reveal the constant polarity of Russian art: a strong inclination to the new and different, along with a surprising continuity with the past. The portrait of the city that emerges is a variegated mosaic of the anxiety for the future of Russian society and the universal contradictions of our times.

Supremacy and Feeling: Contemporary Artists from Moscow is an Imago Mundi collection, a cultural, democratic, global, non-profit project, promoted by Luciano Benetton with the aim of creating the widest possible mapping of the different contemporary artistic experiences of our world. In Imago Mundi, each country is represented by the works of established artists and new talents, commissioned with the maximum freedom of expression, whose only constraint is the 10x12 cm format.

www.imagomundiart.com is the web platform of the entire project.
