The artist will show a series of painted carpets created in 2021, which reflects tragic events of Belarus in 2020. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite its unique history, the genre of painted carpets is not included in the official Belarusian art narrative. Such practice has withstood even the most difficult history periods: in twentieth century, sacral images of paradise and nature maintained people\u2019s spiritual wellbeing, trading it for a sack of potatoes, or sometimes those carpets filled with idealism was an absolute kitsch, made by prisoners to decorate labor camp wardens\u2019 everyday life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI work in this genre, because people do understand this language. But I don\u2019t want to flee from reality. I want to discover individual and collective misconceptions and lies.\u201d, says the artist. In his work, Maxim examines the topics of searching for identity as well as its formation, memory, responsibility, and humanity. With citations of Biblical stories and known paintings from the history of art, Maxim Osipau highlights the contemporary human condition in the face of dehumanized world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition curator Vera Dziadok, a lecturer at the EHU, says that the ideas of soviet identity and heroism are not working for Belarusian anymore, and asks the question of how it is possible to collect the new identity from small pieces, inherited mostly orally and in family, ahead of official narratives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition will be open  10th &#8211; 15th December:<br>Friday 18:00 \u2013 Opening event &amp; artist talk by Maxim Osipau.<br>Saturday 11:00 \u2013 22:00.<br>Sunday: 12:00 \u2013 16:00.<br>Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday: 11:00 \u2013 18:30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Autarkia, kartu su Europos Humanitariniu Universitetu, \u0161\u012f penktadien\u012f 18 val. kvie\u010dia \u012f baltarusi\u0173 menininko Maksim Osipau parod\u0105 \u201eA\u0161 galiu visk\u0105 paai\u0161kinti\u201c.
