Born in Barnaul (1988). He is a graduate of GITIS and the Rodchenko School of Photography and Multimedia (Sergey Bratkov's studio). Egor Fedorychev experiments with traditional forms of Art, including painting. He appropriates and transforms non-art materials in his works, balancing between sculpture and collage, painting and object. Fedorychev uses industrial materials – banners from old exhibitions and concerts, wrapping with half-erased names of construction companies, pieces of industrial fabric from building sites – to make political and socio-cultural statements within a certain historical context. Moreover, he turns to traditional techniques, employing "intuitive painting", to offer his own ways of visualising music and poetry.
On the 11th of December 2019, JART Gallery hosted a private view of Egor Fedorychev's new project "The Inevitable Just-Do-It". (The curator of the project was Alexander Burenkov). In this project, Fedorychev speaks about the current state of the country and the tension in the air by poetic lines of Soviet and contemporary Russian poets and musicians, literally and figuratively woven into the picturesque fabric of Fedorichev's works - from Vladimir Mayakovsky and Osip Mandelstam to Yegor Letov, Oleg Sudakov and the Omsk musical "Tetris-punk" group "Noisy and menacing antics".
In 2018, he was a Nominee of the State Prize in Contemporary Art "Innovation-2018", in the category "New Generation". Egor's works are in the collections of the Multimedia Art Museum in Moscow (MAMM), the Vladimir Smirnov and Konstantine Sorokin Foundation, the Center for Contemporary Art Winzavod (Moscow), and in private collections.
JART GALLERY
Was founded in 2008, and during these years it has chosen a unique project approach, which allowed the institution to become a platform both for experimental young artists and for those who have already made world art history.
For each project, the gallery team invites leading curators: Andrey Erofeev, Kirill Svetlyakov, Sergey Khachaturov, Alexander Burenkov, Victor Misiano, etc.
In 2016 and 2018, the gallery carried out landmark research projects in the field of art history: the exhibition of paintings and graphics ‘Strokes to the Avant-Garde’ (curated by Grigory Kazovsky) and the research project ‘5 Centuries of Russian Icons: Traditions and Innovations’ (curated by Alexander Lipnitsky).
Since 2009, JART Gallery has been producing contemporary art exhibitions. The gallery is a multiple participant of the COSMOSCOW fair (2018, 2019, 2020 (Best Stand award), 2021).
