Vadim Fishkin (1965, Penza, former uSSr) has been living and working in Ljubljana since 1992. his work is principally concerned with science and its specific rules or phenomena, whether gravity (Kaplegraf_Zero_G, 2003), meteorology (Changing the Climate, 2004), astronomy (Am I a Star?, 2004), or botany (Self-Portrait, 1997). But the artist’s science is quite unrealistic, strange, and witty. it is not concerned with the seriousness of the scientific method or approach, but rather with the craziness that lies within a dangerous experiment. His work has been shown internationally in venues such as the 46th, 50th, and the 51st Venice Biennales, and the 8th Baltic Biennial, among others.
