Upward! community, 2010-2014

Upward! community gathered in 2010. With Petr Laden and Daniil Zinchenko as theoretical and active center it had open structure of participation and during its existence more than 20 artists participated in projects of the community.
The community developed the ideas of Russian cosmism and worked with the problems of the brotherhood, ethics in action and cross-species interaction, perception of time and space, the problem of death and infinity of universe in culture.
Main projects of the community (actions and exhibitions) took place in nature, places like forests, ice fileds, parks, swamps, etc. In museum space only documentation materials have been shown after.
One of central ongoing ideas of the community was construction of The Temple of Cosmism – virtual distributed space uniting art, science, religion and politics.
Other line of collaborative work in the community was production of video films developing and spreading the ideas of the community.
