The july 16 is here to raise the bar for the creative world and integrate its spirit into the culture at large. We intend to exhibit creativity and showcase talent with an approach never seen before.

We select the few ones who can truly package yesterday with today and the superficial with the thought provoking. We are here to initiate and support artistic and cultural processes, to make them take place.

About

Us

“The July 16” art agency was founded in May 2009 by Oxana Bondarenko. Oxana is a typical kulturtrager who seeks out and finds new and non-standard examples of contemporary art in Moscow, London, Paris, Mexico City and San Paolo. Through its projects “The July 16” strives to build bridges between countries and fill niches in the context of cultural exchange.

In 2005 Oxana graduated from France’s first art-business school — ICART (Institut Supérieur des Carrières Artistiques). From 2005 to 2007 she worked with the Moscow World Fine Art Fair (including the presentation of the Swiss fund — Mimran Art Foundation). At the same time she consulted private collectors in Moscow. With Oxana’s effort the Victoria Art Foundation was founded to support Russian contemporary art. Its first major exhibition, The Storm and The Harbor, was dedicated to the rough 90s in Saint-Petersburg and presented as a special project at the Venice Biennale 2007.
