Sergey Kuryokhin Contemporary Art Award
The annual independent Sergey Kuryokhin Contemporary Art Award was first introduced in 2009 by the Sergey Kuryokhin Contemporary Art Center in association with Sergey Kuryokhin Foundation.
The Sergey Kuryokhin Award has become one of the most significant cultural events both in St. Petersburg and the rest of Russia, characterizing the global trends in the world contemporary art. The award is given to painters, curators, writers, journalists and musicians, in whose work the innovative ideals of Sergey Kuryokhin are given in new perspective. The founding principles of the Sergey Kuryokhin Award are the search for new ways of interaction between various art forms, the provoking nature of art, its focus on performance, improvisation and the unpredictability of the artistic result.
Book design
Book design is the art of incorporating the content, style, format, design, and sequence of the various components of a book into a coherent whole. In the words of Jan Tschichold, "methods and rules upon which it is impossible to improve, have been developed over centuries. To produce perfect books, these rules have to be brought back to life and applied."
Front matter, or preliminaries, is the first section of a book, and is usually the smallest section in terms of the number of pages. Each page is counted, but no folio or page number is expressed, or printed, on either display pages or blank pages.
