Exhibition
Exhibition [main character]
Press release
From September 4 to 6, the Goldens auction house presents the works of the artist Main Hero @main_main_character. The exposition will be the final stage of the second season of the project-quest, which began in February 2024. The artist's creativity is aimed at combining the principle of a virtual game and reality in an everyday context.
The main character is known for his photos and videos taken on the streets of the city and adapted to virtual reality, with the interpretation of passers-by as NPCs (Non Player Characters).
A similar approach and consideration of the individual as the main character in the "game" caused close communication between the artist and the audience and the launch of a large-scale quest in the city of Lviv. During the three-day competition, participants searched for 12 works placed by the author in different areas of the city. Each work contained a code word on the back, the combination of which opened access to a crypto wallet with $1,000.
The series of these works received its continuation and is represented in the exposition by three abstract canvases "Picture". The inscription embodies the essence of the object and the idea of clear rules of the game.
The exhibition also includes an exclusive display of a collective painting, which has become the next level of the "game". Potential owners had the opportunity to purchase cm2 of canvas for an amount multiple of 20 hryvnias, thus receiving their share of the work. The total amount of the sale was 1 million hryvnias, and the largest purchased part was 100,000 hryvnias. The reverse side of the work was approved by the co-owners of the work and decorated by the artist with images of 20 stages of the formation of the Ukrainian nation in the style of rock paintings.
100,000 hryvnias received from the sale of collective work were directed to support the school of young engineers, another 100,000 hryvnias were given to the third assault brigade, and 100,000 hryvnias were given to the Magura brigade for the development of a prototype of mobile workshops. The rest of the funds went to purchase the demining drone "Snake" developed by @the_borys_official.
The purchased drone was used to write the next series of works, 8 of which will also be presented during three days in the gallery of the Goldens auction house. Currently, the demining drone performs its direct function in the epicenter of hostilities.
