The exposition, which will be presented from 15 to 29 September at the Museum of Architecture. A. V. Shchusev, will include about 40 projects completed by ABD architects, including urban planning projects, architectural objects and interiors. Boris Levyant, CEO of ABD Architects, told us that the exhibition will then go on a tour of the five largest cities in Russia. So far, an exhibition dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the company has been confirmed in St. Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Yekaterinburg and Novosibirsk. It will also be shown in one of the centers of the Southern District - Sochi or Krasnodar.
“This exhibition is a reporting project, checking hours with colleagues,” explains Sergey Kryuchkov, Development Director of ABD Architects, “but also a declaration: after 20 years of practice, we consider it necessary to outline the positions from which we conduct a dialogue with the natural and cultural context, customers, colleagues, technologies. The word "dialogue" in the title should be interpreted as broadly as possible, in all its direct and figurative meanings. Graphically, the exposition differs from the traditional-narrative architectural presentation of the material. We did not have a goal to demonstrate our projects once again, many of which are well known and have been published many times. The task of the exhibition is to concisely reveal the key features of each project, as well as the underlying creative principles behind them. That is why we have translated the story about our work from the architectural language into the graphic one, preferring the sign to the description”.
