The exhibition provided the context to develop two archival initiatives, around IRWIN's NSK Embassy Moscow (1992), and Alexander Brener's 1997 action in the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. NSK Embassy Moscow was the first project in Russia to establish a direct dialogue with artists from Eastern Europe. For a month, the IRWIN-NSK Embassy was established in a rented apartment at 12 Leninsky Prospect, close to Gorky Park, hosting lectures, debates, and performances with artists, critics, and philosophers under the auspices of the concept "How the East Sees the East." Exploring contexts for art in the former USSR and the former Yugoslavia, the project sought to identify intersections and contradictions between the two socialisms.
