Efficiency
  • Aleksander Borovsky

    Head of the Department of Contemporary Art, State Russian Museum

The project by Alla Esipovich and Olga Kiseleva is a rare phenomenon of video art, in which the idea of social responsibility is not declared, but themed. It combines the idea of real, non-stylized documentary quality with an element of play. The exalted nature of her gestures and speech stems from the predicament of a woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown, yearning for self-realization and constantly questioning the very possibility of imbuing her life with any measure of efficiency. The documentary, intensified by a tactfully introduced element of play, gives rise to a poignant existential note.
