 The Archstoyanie Festival is not only one of the most important events on Russia’s art calendar but also one of the most ambitious. Known for its giant land objects, the festival is now includes sound art, installations, lectures and more. The Archstoyanie Festival of Land Art has become a must-attend event for anyone interested in art in Russia. What started out as a casual affair, created to celebrate the odd architectural construction in the artists’ village of Nikola-Lenivets, a four-hour drive from Moscow, has rapidly transformed to become home to a permanent — and ever-growing — collection of land art. What’s more, the eleventh edition of the three-day festival held on the last weekend in July has expanded its scope to include sound installations, sculpture and lectures. Music participants: Demdike Stare (UK), Lakker (Ireland), M. Geddas Gengras (USA), Moa Pillar (Russia), Suokas (Russia) and more. Read more
