Photos exhibition by Darian Volkova

«GALA»

Arts Square Gallery
Ital'yanskaya Str., 5

April 17 – May 15,
2019

On April 17 Arts Square Gallery, exhibition partner for Dance Open festival, hosted the exhibition by Darian Volkova, an explorer and master of ballet photography, ex-ballerina, chief of the Darian Volkova Ballet Production, editor in-chief of the WorldOfBallet.com, member of the Russian Union of Art Photographers, author of ballet and art photography course.

«I document and capture the images of the world ballet’s premiers and soloists living in the beginning of the 21th century» — too modestly remarks the author on her mission statement. Actually the images that fascinate, speak and stamp on memory are more than just a photo chronicle. This is because life is like a stage: the most memorable moments gather into a sophisticated mosaic parade — Gala — and introduce the best stories, so welcome to be repeated again and again.
In «Gala» by Darian Volkova the photograph becomes the narrator and the director, the exhibition space continues the stage, and main characters are friends and participants of Dance Open of different years which are starring and always dancing.

Darian cooperates with principal dancers and soloists of the leading Russian and European theaters. Her works are preserved in private collections in USA, Germany, Great Britain, Australia, Hong Kong, Italy, Switzerland, store rooms of Russian Museum and Sheremetev Palace.

The exhibition is open until 15 May.
