Abstract

The article examines the post-industrial landscape of urban outskirts («non-site») and the art focusing on it as a single space of semiosis. Analysis of the local history of the unusual reception of the exhibition «Russian Nowhere» (2021) by contemporary artist Pavel Otdelnov as a microsemiotic system enabled the author to explicate a number of universal patterns of the existence of the semiosphere of the modern Russian culture.
