There is also however the desire within the work. The few films I've seen from Russia by women seem to really be focusing on women's sexuality in a bold, overt way. It's not typical. It's the choice of curators who go to Russia and choose films. Natalia Borisova Infinite Evil in the programme is very rare in Russia where work does not generally focus on sexuality.
Russian art is more an atmosphere.
Women create a special kind of atmosphere and men create another kind of atmosphere and its difficult to describe, even in Russian, because its something spiritual not sophisticated, but spiritual like air or sunshine. Yes of course, and not only for Russia. Women are more interested in details , in atmosphere in small things, looking carefully and closely. Now we are thinking in St Petersburg that the time of male civilisation has passed. It's funny to say this, as everyone will laugh at us , as it is so ambitious, but it really has passed.
