26 july—25 september 2023

This exhibition commemorates 65 years since the birth of Timur Novikov (1958–2002), artist and founder of two movements – New Artists in the 1980s and the New Academy of Fine Arts in the 1990s. 

The exhibition Timur Novikov’s Wedge traces the New Academy’s evolution, highlighting the dominant trends in its experimental artistic endeavours from the early 1990s and until the end of that decade, marked by the emergence of the New Serious movement, which held its premiere exhibition in the Nicholas Chambers of the St Michael’s Castle in 1999. Timur Novikov’s Wedge features approximately 60 works by 23 artists of the New Academy in various media, from painting and sculpture to video art, computer graphics, and fashion.
