Natalie Burlutskaya
Art curator
Natalie Burutskaya is a New York based curator and photo artist, founder of RE:ARTISTE International Art Organization. The theme she’s most interested in as an artist is people’s life and social anthropology in such a megalopolis as New York. A hectic lifestyle of city inhabitants means surviving with giant architecture, noise pollution, high speed of decision making while still often remaining vulnerable. Many ‘city humans’ live with a sense of insecurity, with hidden desires, fragile moments of loneliness, fear, or happiness. It is especially true to women, men in their middle age, LGBTQ-people. People have to suppress their feelings in favor of career or security. As a curator, Natalie Burlutskaya has been exploring the notion of "social art" - the art that educates, informs, provokes thoughts and conversation, and evokes change. She has curated several international art exhibitions and special projects in collaboration with theater.
