Russian ACT

Russian ACT in London (22 November 2007 - 27 April 2008)
Russian ACT, now in its fourth year, brings a hugely varied and exciting programme of Russian culture and events to London providing an insight into the arts and culture of the country that Churchill referred to as a 'riddle wrapped inside an enigma'.

This year's Russian ACT includes the first major UK retrospective of work by Russian photographer Alexander Rodchenko taking place at the Hayward; a season of films by legendary Russian director Andrei Tarkovsky at Curzon Mayfair and the opportunity to see AES+F's The Last Riot, one of the hits of this year's Venice Biennale at Tate Britain. A strong musical line-up includes performances by jazz legends Arkady Shilkoper and Sax Mafia as part of the London Jazz Festival; the vituoso pianist Yeugeny Sudbin at Wigmore Hall and young folk duo Zventa Sventana at Cargo.

Russian ACT is organised by: marka:face:fashion and supported by the
Russian Federal Agency for Culture and Cinematography.
