Artefacts
From the series "Game of Gestures, King of Triangles".
Francisco Infante-Arana (b. 1943) is a Russian artist, photographer, and art theorist. From 1956 to 1962, he studied at the Moscow Secondary Art School, and in 1966 he graduated from the Moscow Higher School of Art and Industry (former Stroganov School). From 1962 to 1964, he was a member of the Commonwealth of Artists of the Geometric and Metaphysical Direction. In 1968, he began creating installations in open natural spaces. Since 1968, he has been working together with Nonna Goryunova. In 1970, he organized the group of artists and engineers "Argo" with the aim of creating artificial systems analogous to natural phenomena. This artistic association became a notable avant-garde phenomenon in Moscow at the time. Since 1973, he has been a member of the Moscow Union of Artists. From 1975 onward, he focused on creating artefacts, using them to express his core idea — merging the natural and the artificial through outdoor installations, and subsequently presenting them to the public in limited-edition photographs. He has participated in numerous international exhibitions, and his work is represented in prestigious public and private collections. The artist's achievements and innovations were recognized in 1996 with the State Prize of the Russian Federation in the field of fine arts. Currently, Francisco Infante continues to develop his ideas of artefacts in exhibitions in Russia and abroad.
