On November 24th at 8pm Piotr Bystrov and Fyodor Pavlov-Andreevich, the two mid career Russian performance artists, will be doing a 24h long performance - they will be seated at Solyanka State Gallery foyer and talking to each other non stop around the clock with no interval switching to a new theme every hour and having a new referee every 60 min (the 24 referees will be Russia's top curators, museum directors, art critics and historians). The referee will hold the bell and will mark the transition progress throughout the talk - whenever they feel one of the interlocuteurs is going wrong/boring/lost, the bell will ring, and the other artist will start talking. This performance will become a final stage of The Artist Is Hidden: a biennial group show of Russian live art as a special project of the 6th Moscow Biennale of contemporary art.
