On the sidelines of Tatyana Apraksina’s art exhibit “Preamble” (https://t.me/artspacemars/4641) as part of the joint project “Underground Reserve” with the Etalon group, mArs Art Space will host an evening of poetry, representing the most complete presentation of the artist’s cycle California Psalms in Russia to date.

Apraksina’s Psalms were published in the magazine Neva in 2005 and 2007, then as a separate book in the United States in 2013. Spoken-word performances of the cycle in the USA, Germany, Israel and Russia have contributed to its reputation.

In 2023, Apraksina received the Babel Prize for Literature, including for this work. Recently, a new edition of California Psalms was published in the U.S., dedicated to the cycle’s 25th anniversary and including its updated translation.

The evening’s guests will have an opportunity to get acquainted with the book and purchase copies.
