Peter Aerschmann was born in a Swiss town Fribourg in 1969 and has been engaged in art video and photo practices for more than 20 years. Aerschmann images are a computer collage, where objects meet textures, and stories meet fates. All videos have been created and are demonstrated mute: this requires ultimate concentration on the image from spectators. By paying focused attention to the image, a spectator notices that people and objects not only move slower than usual. The movement takes any directions, the march of time loses its power, laws of light and shade subordinate to new rules of convention. This is how the author enters the world and sorts out priorities giving a spectator an opportunity to judge about beauty and justice by themselves. 

In Satka’s small exhibition, the spectators will watch extracts from 20 works created since 2008 until 2015. They are demonstrated in two screens without repetitions. It takes a little bit more than one hour to watch the works chosen for Satka. The exhibition starts November 7 and will last until December at the updated Magnezit Museum,  Solnechnaya str., 34. Please note that November, 10 the museum will host the meet-the-artist event; it starts at 6.00 p.m.

November 8 and 9, film shows pursuant to the Days of Research Cinema will take place in Magnezit Cultural Center.  November 8, "Magnus" documentary will be shown. In 2004, thirteen year Magnus made a decision: he will become a world champion in chess. This is a story of growing up of a talented chess player recording his fight for place among the best players, the sacrifices he made, his friends and his loving family. The event providers are sure that Satka residents will like the film, as this Ural city became the birthplace of an educational project, Chess Universal Education. 

The next day spectators will be shown "Terra" film: story on behalf of the mankind itself gradually transforms from the story of species into how we treat nature being a part of it. How do we want to interact with other species now? This question is the essence of Terra film. The movie shows that our ideas of and relation to the nature have always been  determinant for the history of mankind and that we still can change the course of events. From the very first shots, the film fascinates with the splendor of the signature style of  Yann Arthus-Bertrand and velvet voice of Vanessa Paradis.

The film show starts at 7.00, the entrance is free.
