#Think4Yourself Russian Cultural Code: Art — an educational documentary For centuries, the Western world has been trying to solve the mystery of the Russian soul. Today, in the Digital Age, is has acquired a new name — the Russian cultural code. In this film (developed by the School of Arina Sharapova, TV presenter, Deputy Chairman of the Public Chamber), music, graphic art and architecture will become a key to the Russian code. Unlike literature, theatre and cinema, these arts require no translation. Contemporary art often reflects a response to changes in society and through art we can trace how Russian culture adapts to technological progress. Young musicians and students were invited to take part in the discussion with artist Alexei Belyayev-Gintovt who has created paintings and installations dedicated to Russia’s special role in the world. Watch the documentary to better understand the Russian soul. Source: Russian MFA
