AIR FLIGHT. BODY SHOCK 2010 “The artist (Valery Katsuba) decided to make a project «Air Flight. Body Shock» about circus relying upon his own feelings. This is not a very trendy topic in contemporary art. Maybe, true affection, immersion into the subject of art can become a way out of art crises which turned into appendage of market conveyor, a part of entertainment industry, various discourses and “rational” perception of reality. Phrases “a stretch of imagination”, “a spirit hover” carry one away into the world of irrational, world of dreams which the circus always appealed to. Human dream to learn to fly doesn’t derive from birdwatching, but evolves out of flying experience in our dreams, as well as from the internal “free fall”. One can hardly rely on Freud, who interpreted it as a fundamental sexual basis and educed origins of aircraft from Leonardo Da Vinci’s erotic dreams (“fellatio”). Flight is our unconscious desire enclosed in the memory of body and brain by evolution as a potential ability. Dream of flying is a “dream reality” that puts body under control and trapeze artists’ way of thinking turns into their lifestyle. The whole structure of Katsuba’s photography underlines spiritual and classic origins of the gymnasts (Olga Golubeva and Evgeny Efremov) work, turns trapeze into high art backed by the “memory of body”. The young gumnasts in their performances place an accent on beautiful forms of high art. Suddenly Dante’s Paolo and Francesca – two cuddling shadows floating together, who don’t part even in the hellfire – appear behind the photos showing elegant compositions built of young bodies. But the point of high art is that even in the most extreme circumstances it “performates” stress and recoil into high artistic conditions. In this sense the exhibition comprising several kinds of art and creative minds as co-authors (photographer and gymnasts), is about elevated things – it terms of gravity, ideas and feelings. Andrey Khlobystin, Art historian

Valery Katsuba (currently based in Madrid, Spain) is an artist working in the realms of photography, video and performance; he also writes stories. His best-known photographic series are Phiscultura (2006), The Model: Classic and Contemporary(2018), The Seasons. My Friends (2005). Each was created as a narrative, based on classical traditions in art and literature, on historical research and, above all, on personal observations and perceptions. To create such photographic series the artist
works (as director, choreographer or trainer) with models – athletes, dancers, actors, circus performers, workers or friends. His works are in the collections of the Centre
Pompidou (Paris), the Russian Museum (St Petersburg), the Museum of the San Fernando Royal Academy of Fine Arts (Madrid), Shanghai Centre of Photography and others.
BIOGRAPHY
Valery Katsuba was born in 1965 in Minsk Region, Republic
of Belarus, USSR.
His interest in literature, History and Art, as well as sport, was shaped in part thanks to the enthusiasm of his teachers.
After finishing school at the age of 16, he went to study at the Admiral Makarov State Maritime Academy in Leningrad (now St Petersburg, Russia), where he completed a degree in meteorology in the Arctic Faculty with honours.
He then commenced postgraduate research under the guidance of Academician Vladlen Adamenko. It was at this time that he met journalist Sergey Kalinin and art historian
Catherine Phillips, and under their influence started to work in journalism. He produced pieces for St Petersburg radio and television and for BBC radio and television, and wrote about the art of St Petersburg and Moscow in the age of Perestroika for
Kommersant, The Guardian, The Independent, Vogue Paris and others. He gave up his graduate studies, recognising that his vocation lay in art. In the late 1990s, he started to collaborate with Vogue magazine, which set up a Russian edition, also with W
Magazine and others producing photoshoots for renowned photographers such as Arthur Elgort, Neil Kirk, Philip-Lorca di Corcia and stylists Katharina Flohr and Carine Roitfeld. In 2002, he started filming with his own Hasselblad, a gift from Neil Kirk, who was to become the first collector of his work.
