Biographie

Olga Kisseleva fait partie de cette première génération de la Perestroïka, qui a fait tomber le mur de Berlin et lever le rideau de fer. Ses installations, ses photographies, ses vidéos et ses peintures traitent du mélange des cultures, de la mixité des langages, des nouvelles technologies, de la mouvance des rapports sociaux.

The artist Olga Kisseleva's approach to her work is much the same as a scientist's. A discrepancy detected during a procedure or within the workings of a structure oblige her to formulate a hypothesis, in order to explain the complication in question, and wherever possible, to propose a solution to the problem. She then determines the skills necessary to pursue the relative study, and commissions the research.

The artist calls upon exact sciences, on genetic biology, geophysics, and also on political and social sciences. She proceeds with her experiments, calculations and analyses, while strictly respecting the methods of the scientific domain in question. Her artistic hypothesis is thus verified and approved by a strictly scientific method.
