Newsletter accompanying similar named solo exhibition by Russian artist Olga Chernysheva at BAK (basis voor actuele kunst) Utrecht (Jan.23 - April 17, 2011). It included several new works and a survey of her practice. Through her paintings, watercolors, objects, videos, and photographs, Chernysheva engages in a complex process of observing, interpreting, and recomposing her surroundings in an exploration of art’s methods of representing reality. She often concentrates on individuals in mundane situations, but in so doing is able to reveal larger meanings about society, marked as it is by the post-communist and neoliberal conditions of the world. 'In the Middle of Things' was a research exhibition organized within the framework of FORMER WEST (2008–2016), a long-term, multifaceted international research, education, publishing, and exhibition project.
