Leonid Zeiger. SUBLIMINAL IMAGE

Leonid Zeiger. Very private collection

My life of roaming from one rental apartment to another started in 1980 when I enrolled in an art school at the age of 15.
Each time after moving to a new apartment I began to gradually make it more comfortable for myself, i.e. I began to turn it into my HOME. I would repaint the walls, place my books and albums on shelves and hang paintings, but, to a great extent, it is special things brought by me from one apartment to another that made each apartment my home. Over the years, a collection of the OBJECTS OF MY HOME was thus gathered. These photos constitute only a small part of this collection.
Four stages of a canvas (L.Zeiger)

There are canvases that “sit” there unfinished for years. This is one of them. I tried to work on it several times, putting it off eventually, unsatisfied.
This time around, I think it’s done.
Performance in St. Petersburg, 1989

In 1989, at the opening of the exhibition “The Wall”, I have seen a performance of the theater “DEREVO” for the first time. Back then, their performances were triggering very different reactions among the Soviet spectators: from amazement and admiration to open aggression. I felt that the ideas of the theater were so close to me, that I immediately proposed to Anton Adasinsky to arrange a joint action.
