Nikita Seleznev (Russian: Никита Селезнев) is a Russian multimedia artist.

Biography[edit]

Seleznev was born January 24, 1990, in Perm, USSR, a city about 1450 km (900 miles) from Moscow in the western Ural Mountains. From 2005 to 2016, he studied sculpture at the [Shadr] Sverdlovsk Art College and at the [Steiglitz] St. Petersburg State Academy of Art and Design. In 2015, under the student exchange program, he studied at the [Geppert] Academy of Fine Arts. (Wrocław, Poland) and had an internship at the School of Young Artists of the St. Petersburg Foundation for Culture and Art “Pro Arte”.

Since 2019, Seleznev has been represented by MYTH gallery.[1] (St. Petersburg). During this time, his work was presented at group exhibitions in Moscow,RU;[2][3] Paris,FR;[4] Fort Worth,TX;[5] Tromso,NO; Yekaterinburg,RU[6] and St. Petersburg,RU.[7] Also in 2019, the sculptor participated in the project "Na Rajone, Novomolokovo" (On the District, Novomolokovo) [8] (Molokovo, Moscow region), in the art residency program CEC ArtsLink Art Prospect Fellows Program[9] (New York). His Agile gallery[10] project was presented at The 8th floor gallery[11] (New York).

In 2021, he was shortlisted for the "Innovation-2021" State Prize[12] in the "New Generation" category and the Kuryokhin Art Prize[13]. He was a member of the art residence of the Workshops of the Garage Museum of Modern Art[14] (Moscow). A catalog of selected artist projects[15] was published by MYTH gallery in 2021. He is a member of the St. Petersburg Union of Artists.

Seleznev's works are in the personal collections of Clayton Press and Gregory Linn[16] (Princeton, NJ), Denis Khimilyayne[17] (St. Petersburg), Sergey Limonov[18] (St. Petersburg), Maria Filshtinskaya (Moscow), Maria Grudina[19] (St. Petersburg), Igor Sukhanov (St. Petersburg), and Simon Mraz (Vienna).

Seleznev's work has been featured in the international press: Forbes[20] and The Calvert Journal.[21][22][23]

Practice[edit]

Seleznev is a multimedia artist who boldly uses any media, be they raw materials, ready-mades, images, language, or video. His approach to mass media imagery builds on the traditions and practices of associated with the Pictures Generation (Cindy Sherman, Sherrie Levine, Robert Longo).[24]

Seleznev is economical in his choice and use of media, quite unlike the jumble frequently seen in art. When he uses found objects—textiles, metal, plastic, and composite materials, he does so sparingly. Seleznev easily moves from handmade concrete sculptures to technologically assisted ones fabricated using 3-D printing techniques that repetitively extrude thermoplastic filament to form objects.[16]

Reviews[edit]

“Predominantly through installations, Seleznev uses art to question relationships between subject and object, as well as changes in linguistic structures and social phenomena in the contemporary world.''

The Calvert Journal[25]

“All of Seleznev’s sculptures exude untamed aggression that sometimes borders on perversion, like two genderless faces, carved sgraffito-like onto a concrete block, touching tongues. The work is restless, dangerous and anxious. This is certainly part of their fresh appeal.”

Forbes[26]
