PLATFORM: Visual Poetry Exhibition represents the phenomenon of visual poetry with works by recognized poets and by emerging young poets. Because visual poetry is not widely distributed in Russia, people in Russia do not know the work of the Russian visual poets. We want to return their poems to Russia, both in traditional and in digital forms. In addition to its importance to the people of Russia, this exhibition will be interesting for foreign artists, writers, and students of Slavic Languages.

This project combines the technology of networking culture with ideas of a virtual "moving exhibition", even as the concept of "original" is disappearing and being replaced by digital copy.
