Participants voting The Active Citizen project selected the best graffiti from the "Figure of Speech" street art exhibition at the Netsten Gallery. The artists displayed their works on a concrete canvas near the Winzavod and Artplay creative clusters.
Six participants were in contention for the win. Alexander Demkin's work, depicting a portrait of a girl reflected on a water surface, received the most votes, approximately 41 percent. The idea behind this graffiti is the eternal dialogue between classical and contemporary art and the search for balance. Second place (25 percent of the votes) went to Evgeny Malyshev's abstract architectural collage, in which a sculptural composition is washed by sea foam. Artem Stefanov's optical illusion, reflecting the energy of a metropolis, rounded out the top three (13 percent of the votes).
In total, more than 207 thousand Muscovites shared their opinions.
The street gallery was organized by the capital Committee on Architecture and Urban Planning (Moskomarkhitektura) in collaboration with the Winzavod Center for Contemporary Art. Thematic exhibitions of the Netsten project are held twice a year and allow innovative artists to bring their work to a wider audience, while also introducing contemporary art enthusiasts to new names in the art community.
Project Active Citizen has been operating since 2014. During this time, more than seven million people have joined, and over seven thousand votes have been held. Between 30 and 40 decisions are implemented in the city every month. The project is being developed by the State Public Institution "New Management Technologies" and the Moscow Department of Information Technology.
The creation, development and operation of e-government infrastructure, including the provision of mass socially significant services, as well as other services in electronic form, are consistent with the objectives of the national project "Data Economy and Digital Transformation of the State" and the Moscow regional project "Digital Public Administration."
