AES+F F (Tatiana Arzomasova. Lev Evzovich, Evgeny Svyarsky and Vladimir Fridkes) has been exploring the possibilities of combining modern technology, Hollywood cinema, fashion photography, advertising. moss media, popular culture and youth obsession with the classical aesthetic of odd masters' paintings since the forming of the group in 1987, visualising and presenting o world for he viewers that is rather familiar yet mysterious and alienated. Their digital collage of real life photographs and animated landscape/objects blurs and defies the line between reality and farnasy, history and lime, constructing a futuristic mythological metaphor for the present through their glamorous. seductive yet alarming, artificially hyperrealistic imageries.
