Richard Taittinger Gallery is proud to present Stored in Ice, a new solo exhibition by renowned Russian artist Alexander Ponomarev (b. 1957). Showing both large-scale installations and works on paper, Stored in Ice, examines the artist’s lifelong research and quest for preserving cultural memory within the undefined terrains of the Antarctic Circle. Ponomarev’s actions unfold in remote places of the sea, nurturing his continuous curiosity and ways of deepening the connection between humanity and earth. This show also serves as a prelude for the artist’s forthcoming institutional endeavor the 1st Antarctic Biennale.
