Pusto is not empty, it is an amazing videoart

by Evgeny Pavlov

What does the Russian word "Pusto" mean? Yes, I can write it in Russian as "Пусто" but if you don't know Russian, you can't differently say what does it mean. The simple translation of the word is empty. Nonetheless it is a famous street video festival in Russia.

Some people try to show some shot (or not) videos for other some people. The main idea is to show all of that in an empty place of a city: derelict houses, desolate places etc.

This year "Pusto" has been invited to show some videoart for the Architecture of Movement. There were two performances: in Bragino and nearby the River Station on 4th and 5th of September accordingly.

More photographs (as usual) of the Architecture of Movement you can find on the official website and there is the journal (or blog) of the "Pusto" project. I think you can even join them.
