Sculptures Sing Opera at St. Petersburg s Manege Sculptures and opera mix in this innovative and affecting show. Vasily Bulanov An exhibition called “Stillness. Russian Classical Sculpture From Shubin To Matveev” opened at the Manege in St. Petersburg, throwing a virtual bridge across centuries, artists and art forms. The spacious halls of the Manege have been transformed into theater spaces, complete with a foyer, dressing rooms, an orchestra pit, audience seats and stages where different performances take place. The “performers” are sculptures, placed to act out selected scenes from the famous operas playing in every hall. The project’s curators have selected more than 150 sculptures to show the evolution of this art form in Russian, from the times of Fedot Shubin, who created portraits of the Empress Catherine the Great and scientist Mikhail Lomonosov from life, to Soviet-era masterpieces by Alexander Mikhailov.
