OLGA ZHITLINA

The Most Tolerant Courtyard in St. Petersburg

The Most Tolerant Courtyard in St. Petersburg is a performance-mystification. The artist guides visitors on a tour of the courtyard, discussing the broad-mindedness of its inhabitants and how concretely this is manifested. Visitors watch small groups of actors in various corners of the courtyard acting out their stories, hear local residents and immigrants teach each other their native languages and elsewhere see young people swapping clothes, etc.
