Athletes of Art is conceived as a distributed exhibition unfolding across multiple locations in Milan and Lombardy, creating a dialogue between contemporary art, sport, movement, and social responsibility. Each venue contributes a distinct context while remaining part of a shared conceptual framework.
At Liceo Artistico di Brera, the project took on an educational and process-oriented dimension. Presented at Spazio Hajech Plus, the exhibition emphasized artistic process, movement, and learning, bringing contemporary art into direct contact with students and the public.
Within this context, Liliia Kaluzhyna presented large-scale acrylic works exploring rhythm, movement, and individual trajectories. The exhibition was documented through a short video capturing the installation process, the evolving exhibition space, and the final presentation, reflecting the living and dynamic nature of the Brera location.
