Once again, the city of Almaty is immersed in art, which is united by artists and bartenders, the correspondent of Art of Her reports.
The Ararat company together with artists and bartenders continue a series of events. After the revived art from Mimi Ilnitskaya and Didar Mukhitov, the palm passed to the artist Stanislav Lipsky and the bartender Murat Khemrakulov.
The Cultural MIX exhibition party - is an immersion into the cultures of Armenia and Kazakhstan.
"In our difficult time, when everyone pulls the blanket over themselves, there is not a confrontation of cultures, but a complement of cultures. We can emphasize something from Armenia, we have them. I wanted to show that we need to unite and look for positive sides from each other," Stanislav Lipsky said.
At the entrance, visitors were greeted by already well-known works of the artist, and in the hall of new works one could find posters and two triptychs dedicated to Kazakhstan and Armenia. In addition, Stanislav Lipsky chose 3 artists from each country and created homages on them.
"I am not familiar with Lipsky's work, today I saw it firsthand. I really liked that the cultures of Armenia and Kazakhstan were combined. It's very exotic," blogger BekaEasy shared his impressions.
The exhibition party was accompanied by the playing of talented musicians: Didar Isakhan (author and performer of the dombra part together with the group Irina Kairatovna) and the team of KamBeat & dudukist Evgeny Drobot.
"The first thing I asked before agreeing to speak at the event was details about the artist's work, and when I was told that he was about our culture, nature and our way of life, I immediately agreed! It is in this format of performances that I have never tried myself before, I am used to people coming for the sake of musicians, and today everyone came for the sake of Stas' creativity. It was a pleasure to be a part of this evening," commented Didar Isakhan.
Not without bar art. Murat Khemrakulov surprised the guests with author's cocktails.
"I liked the atmosphere itself, I don't really understand art, but today I discovered something new. I learned what a triptych is, today this is how Armenia and Kazakhstan were presented to us," blogger and singer Aina Says said.
It was the second party of four planned. Ahead of us are waiting for new artists, new bartenders and a new immersion in art.
