Zorikto: New Steppe
Colourful exhibition at St George’s Anglican church in Venice organised by University Ca’ Foscari and Gallery Khankhalaev of work by Russian artist Zorikto Dorzhiev. Zorikto is an artist from Mongolia and the show consisted of lovely patchwork painted sculptures of men on horseback in traditional costume in bright colours set among his large bright pictures. I was lucky to see these works not just in exhibition but also to sit among them for the Sunday morning service where I had more time to contemplate them and I saw more depth in them and I came away loving the work.
