The Farkash Gallery is proud to present selected photographs by Almagul Menlibayeva.
Menlibayeva creates a poetic blend of video and performance in a unique setting that brings together topics of Islamic cultural tradition and contemporary art, creating a language of so-called Punk Shamanism to present her view of her surrounding world and cultural history. Menlibayeva practice stems from her educational background in the Soviet Russian avant-garde school of Futurism, which she combines with a nomadic aesthetic of post-Soviet, contemporary Kazakhstan.
