Last Riot 2, The Track

2006 - Photography (Photography)

AES+F


The Last Riot was originally created for Venice Biennale in 2007. In reference to Baroque Painting tradition and Chiaroscuro, this video installation imagines a dystopian virtual world where bodies removed from conscience and emotion exist weightlessly in a cyber paradigm. Light, shadow and digital manipulation slate a post-apocalyptic world where young teens enact conflict as ritual. Both heroes and villains here are automatons here, mechanically carrying out unseen commands within this dreamlike simulation. The letters AES+F of the Russian Collective are for its four members, Tatiana Arzamasova, Lev Evzovich, Evgeny Svyatsky and Vladimir Fridkes. Originally the collective was founded in 1987 with Fridkes joining in 1995, adding his experience as fashion photographer to the mix. Bringing together their individual extensive expertise ranging from conceptual architecture, set design, puppetry, film, photography, graphic design and image making, the group has held over one hundred solo exhibitions, and has showcased their works in Biennials ranging from Venice in 2007 to Gwangju, Helsinki, Istanbul, Lyon & others. Traditional language of painting and sculpture often inform their digital narratives and imagined, simulated worlds.
