Группа «Синие носы» — «народнический» проект сибирских художников В.
Мизина и А. Шабурова (в группу также входят Д. Булныгин и К. Скотников).
Их задача — делать популистское современное искусство, интересное не
только «интернациональному контексту», но и широким народным массам, от
пионеров до пенсионеров. Основанное не на высоких технологиях, но на
самых примитивных и эффектных ходах, сделанное, как они говорят, прямо
«на коленке». Разоблачающее химер массовой рекламы и пропаганды,
которыми пугают либо завлекают маленьких человечков.
The Blue Noses Group is a populist project by Siberian artists V. Mizin
and A. Shaburov (the group also includes D. Bulnygin and K. Skotnikov).
Their primary objective is to create the populist contemporary art,
which is of interest not only to the “international context”, but also
to the general public — from young pioneers to aged pensioners. This art
has no high-technology basis, it comes from the most primitive and
effective strokes, being made in a hit-or-miss manner. It unmasks the
chimeras of mass advertisement and propaganda, which are aimed to
frighten or to allure the little people.

ВЯЧЕСЛАВ МИЗИН
VIACHESLAV MIZIN
Родился в 1962 году в Новосибирске, Россия.
1984 – закончил Новосибирский Архитектурный Институт.
2003 – приз Фестиваля очень короткого кино (в области анимации).
2003 – Первый приз Медиа-форума Московского Международного кинофестиваля.
Живет и работает в Новосибирске и Москве, Россия.
Бывший “бумажный архитектор” и живописец-неоэкспрессионист в один
прекрасный момент напился и уснул в сугробе. Отморозив половину легкого
(1993), Мизин обратил внимание на собственное тело и его части как
материал для работы. В поисках наиболее выразительных средств
художнических акций он пришел к неприкрытой демонстрации своего мужского
достоинства. Мизин клал его на различные предметы и фотографировал,
выстраивая мифологический цикл жизни и смерти данного персонажа.
Пропагандирует теорию “художественного слабоумия” и
“произведений-дебилок” – бессмысленного сопоставления в объектах и
видеоакциях несоединимых вещей. Например, участники группы совершают
обыденные действия, надев маски Бен Ладена, Буша и Путина.
Born in 1962 in Novosibirsk, Russia.
1984 — Graduated from Novosibirsk Architectural Institute.
2003 — the Prize-Winner (in the sphere of animation) at the Festival of
Very Short Films.
2003 — the First Prize-Winner of Media-Forum at Moscow International
Film Festival.
Lives and works in Novosibirsk and Moscow.
The former “paper architect” and neo-expressionist painter one fine day
got heavily drunk and fell asleep in the snow-drift. Having got half of
his lung frost-bitten (1993), Mizin paid attention to his own body and
its parts as the material for work. The quest for the most expressive
means of artistic actions brought him to the undisguised demonstration
of his cock. Mizin placed it on various objects and photographed,
constructing a mythological cycle of life and death of this character.
He is propagating the theory of “Artistic Imbecility” and so-called
“debiloks” (intellectual debility works) - the absurd correlation of
incompatible realize in objects and video-actions. For example, people
perform their routine duties, wearing masks of Bin Laden, Bush and Putin.

АЛЕКСАНДР ШАБУРОВ
ALEXANDER SHABUROV
Родился в 1965 году в г. Березовский Свердловской области, Россия
1986 — закончил Свердловскую Академию Художеств и Архитектуры.
C 1993 — член Союза художников РФ.
1998 - грант Фонда Сороса на лечение и протезирование своих зубов в
качестве художественной акции.
2003 – Первый приз Медиа-форума Московского Международного кинофестиваля.
Живет и работает в Москве, Россия.
Работая фотографом в судебном морге, Шабуров породил собственную
“почвенническую” стратегию - обустройства личной жизни художническими
методами. Это означает у него выдавать за художническую деятельность
свое банальное жизнепроживание. Счет на лечение и протезирование зубов,
например, он оплатил как художественный грант в Фонде Сороса (1998).
Художник, декларирует Шабуров, должен из самых обыденных отправлений
организма художество делать: дней рождений, свадеб и похорон. Покупка
телевизора, холодильника и стиральной машины - вот что такое искусство!
Родился - хэпппенинг, женился - перформанс, переехал на новую квартиру -
инвайронмент! Сюда же относится метод “непосредственного выражения
чувств” – участники группы выходят на мороз в трусах и без всякого
наигрыша выражают крайнюю степень эмоционального напряжения.
Born in 1965 in Berezovsky, Sverdlovsk Region, Russia.
1985 — graduated from Sverdlovsk College of Arts.
1986 — graduated from Sverdlovsk Academy of Architecture and Arts.
Since 1993 — the member of the RF Artists’ Union.
1998 — received grant from the Soros Foundation for denture treatment as
an artistic action.
2003 — the First Prize-Winner of Media-Forum at Moscow International
Film Festival.
Lives and works in Moscow, Russia.
When working in the law-court morgue as a photographer, Shaburov gave
rise to his own “groundwork strategy”, trying to arrange his private
life in accordance with artistic methods. This means pretending that his
trivial round is a sort of artistic activity. Thus, he managed to have
his visit to the dentist financed by Soros Foundation in a form of a
special artistic grant. An artist, according to Shaburov, ought to make
art from any everyday occurrence. Not only birthdays, weddings and
funerals, but also the purchase of a TV set, refrigerator or washing
machine — this is the real art! A birth of a child turns to a happening,
marriage — to a performance, moving to another flat — to an environment.
Shaburov’s “Natural Expression of Feelings” is a method of the same kind
— e.g., people go outside in frosty day, having only pants on, and
without any artificiality express the highest degree of emotional
exertion.
