Afrika Bugaev, Sergej
Ein Mann der Postsovietische Avantgarde der ersten Stunde.Sergei
Bugaev-Afrika wird am 28.03.1966 in Novorossiysk am Schwarzen Meer
geboren. Als noch sehr junger Mann geht Bugaev in den frühen
80er Jahren nach Leningrad,eine Stadt die nie ganz hinter dem
eisernen Vorhang verschwunden war und lernt dort Timur Novikov
kennen, der damals wie heute als einer der größten
nonkonformistischen Russischen Künstler gilt. Mitten in der
Leningrader Kunstszene angekommen, beginnt Bugaev selbst künstlerisch
zu arbeiten und legt sich den Namen "Afrika" zu. 1987
spielt er in dem Russischen Avantgarde Film Assa von Sergei Solovyov
die Hauptrolle: Den Künstler Bananan. Afrika arbeitet
hauptsächlich im Bereich der Installation und der
Performance. 1999 stellte er neben Vitaly Komar und Aleksandr Melamid
auf der 48. Bienalle in Venedig aus.
