PROJECT, Ў Gallery, Minsk, Belarus

---

As a result of a personal and artistic crisis, Topp & Dubio ran out of ideas. For the first time in twenty years of collaboration, Topp & Dubio lack any vibrant spark of artistic thought, as well as any motivation to create art concepts for projects, exhibitions or performances.

At the same time, Y Gallery has invited Topp & Dubio for a solo show in Minsk. Although the first meeting of Topp & Dubio with Minsk, earlier that year, was promising and constructive, no ideas for an exhibition came up or developed since. Mostly because Topp & Dubio haven’t got a clue on what they are doing anymore. Their mental condition is drifting in a total void.

Since it is part of their artistic practice to deal with situations and circumstances, Topp & Dubio have no other option then to show the mental state of crisis in which they are.

Sometimes art can be unpleasantly true.
