Illegal Kosmonavtika (Russian for cosmonautics) is a quiet protest being made by young artists living and working in Georgia. Their outward target is the various state and corporate entities who currently own the exclusive rights to space research. Held in a decommissioned building of the Institute of Space Structures, the exhibition features site-specific works and documentation of workshops held in Tbilisi Geophysical Observatory. Illegal Kosmonavtika is on view June 24 - July 22, 2017, at the Institute of Space Structures, Saguramo, Georgia, 11 am - 6 pm daily. apexart’s program supporters past and present include the National Endowment for the Arts, Milton and Sally Avery Arts Foundation, the Kettering Family Foundation, the Buhl Foundation, The Martin and Rebecca Eisenberg Foundation, Bloomberg Philanthropies, Spencer Brownstone, the Kenneth A.
