For this action, Maslov let a singer of arias at a luxurious event haphazardly distribute a stack of flyers during the performance. Written on these flyers were absurd, humorous \u0026#39;advices\u0026#39; for a post-Soviet life. The banality of every day life as suggested by the flyers clashed with the setting in which they were distributed, but nonetheless, the audience took Maslov\u0026#39;s words very seriously and soon started discussing about the content. For this reconstruction, Vorobyeva and Vorobyev translated the instructions into the fifteen languages of the former Soviet Union.

Voor deze actie liet Maslov een ariazanger bij een luxueus evenement tijdens de opvoering lukraak een stapel flyers verspreiden. Op deze flyers stonden absurde, grappige adviezen geschreven voor het leven in een postsovjet wereld. De banaliteit van het dagelijkse leven dat door de flyers werd aangekaart stond in groot contrast met de omstandigheden waarin deze werden verspreid, maar toch werden Maslovs woorden serieus genomen door het publiek en begon men te discussieren over het onderwerp. Voor deze reconstructie vertaalden Vorobyeva en Vorobyev de instructies in de vijftien talen van de voormalige Sovjetunie. Vorobyeva: \u0026quot;Nu kan eender welk Sovjet persoon naar de tentoonstelling komen en deze instructies lezen in zijn of haar moedertaal, iets waardevols tegenkomen en dit advies toepassen in de praktijk.\u0026quot;\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"actors":[{"id":69,"name":"Sergey Maslov","category":{"en":"Creator","nl":"Vervaardiger","fr":"Créateur"}},{"id":161,"name":"Yelena Vorobyeva \u0026 Viktor Vorobyev","category":{"en":"Creator","nl":"Vervaardiger","fr":"Créateur"}}]}
