Friends! We invite you to our fifth Night at Manege on September 4-5!
We are thrilled to invite you to become part of the team on a unique science fiction expedition that is headed into the distant future. The adventure begins with a study of the futuristic world of Recycle Group at the New Nature exhibition. Irina Kazantseva and Lera Godovaya will lead a mediation where they will discuss the interaction between humans and machines, virtual reality, and the possible paths humanity might take. Accompanying them on the journey will be Änta Golubeva, plant care specialist and owner of the tropical space PRO.Änta’s. You will see tillandsia air plants and learn about their transformation when the landscape of the Earth completely changes, bereft of the layer of soil that we are used to seeing blanket it. Transported through a portal to two billion Earth-years into the future, you will listen to the special program 隻手の声 by the band TAWAGOTTO TO SUTTIKO, whose music of the future is created with the help of tools and artefacts of the past. Our partners on our expedition, A-One, will help us establish communication with the descendants of the human race, with a showing of the film Last and First Men by director Jóhann Jóhannsson.
Our partner PIF-PAF will help us keep our spirits up along the way, offering evening tea and a fantastic breakfast to make the adventure even more unforgettable!
