For the duration of the project, the gallery site has become a total installation, which includes a new series of photographs, sculptures and art objects. Inside the space, there are modified objects with familiar features — a study of subjectivity, individual experience, deep memory and the boundaries of autonomy.
The exhibition will run until October 12th.
XL Gallery has opened a solo exhibition "Choice" by Igor Aeroplane.

The exhibition will run until October 11th.

The exhibition will run until October 15th.
