Aluminum objects and installations Olshvang against the absolute domination of the "Art Text" felt aestheticism alternative conceptualism, and the writer - an agent of minimalism. Olshvang, however, not a formalist. Putting their work at the dump, he realizes the key metaphor postsotsartistskogo Art 80. Then stepped in discourse and creative description of the USSR as a dump - empty things and devalued ideas. Every thing looked originally Soviet moth garbage. Olshvang not immerses things in the element of debris, and remove them from there, not making a gesture of reducing. He brings art to zero. He is not keen on the idea of an empty plate. Forms and signs should be "succinct, meaningful. In his famous installations "Tactics", . where the table with a moth-eaten cloth with witty direction is interpreted as a geographical map, . it sublimes in the natural and cultural landmark status, . resulting work becomes an endless train of associations, . providing its "life"., . Against the background of reductionist and reproduktsionistkih practices gesture Olshvang looks like a persistent restoration of uniqueness, staging buried "aura" . Stamped and industrial (waste production) is presented as an authentic and unique. Aura creates ritual. Unknown ritual serves to build many "mifogennyh" works Olshvang, for example, in the form of a spiral. Working with debris in contact with environmentalism consciousness, but this similarity is deceptive. Recycling is the apogee reproduktsionizma, free exchange of one signifier to another (modified form of the subject, remelted in the pot) for ignoring the strong aura and sense of things. Olshvang, by contrast, are interested in meanings, embodying the memory - so in addition to municipal landfills scope of his search are older apartments with their piles sentimentally meaningful things. . "Archetypes" Olshvang, like a large boat with a strengthened her human guise, sometimes on the verge of kitsch, like the very concept of the archetype . The best thing Olshvang - those where it does not obscure the characters assigned to the collective unconscious, but to the individual-psychological, and responsibility for the surreal takes personal obsession, translucent in the hidden story. This is referred to "tactics" with its invisible character - a crazed retired commander (this interpretation, . course, . is free), . this is the player with two pickups, . creating effect of the delayed sound of the second vote, . and made posthumously paired photograph next to the bride and groom, . And in that, and in other work the artist is engaged in hyperbole randomness that makes an old photograph unintentionally suggestive. The strength of the art Olshvang - a rare ability to hoax - that may show a set of actions, conceived as a work for this project.
