The Kapiton Group

Participants: Andrei Monastyrsky, Vadim Zakharov, Yury Leiderman

In 2008, three conceptualist artists, Andrei Monastyrsky, Vadim Zakharov, and Yury Leiderman, created the Kapiton group with the same name as the first publication of the Library of Moscow Conceptualism (publisher German Titov). There are plans to expand the series through regular release of fundamental topical publications. The book is an attempt to analyze the state and method of contemporary culture by the example of a discussion of specific works specially made for each meeting between February 7, 2008, and March 29, 2009. The Kapiton group was renamed Le Corbusier in November 2009.
