The exhibition The Real Magic of Magical Realism in Berlin has now closed, leaving its mark on the city’s cultural memory. This was the second exhibition revisiting summer 2024 performance Die Traumträger (The Dream Keepers), 6th from immersive visualisations organised by Elya Yalonetski experienced by only a few dozen participants and random visitors in a hidden Rose Garden. In this collective performance, Elya orchestrates the symbolic framework and spatial dramaturgy, but the flow unfolds through the participants themselves, creating a shared, unpredictable dynamic.
Explore a contemporary ceramic interpretation of Hieronymus Bosch’s Garden of Earthly Delights, made by Elya Yalonetski where a single figure perched on a bird becomes a meditation on individuality and isolation. Inspired by Max Stirner’s philosophy of Der Einzige, the artwork reimagines Bosch’s surreal vision as a reflection on freedom, self-awareness, and exile. This sculptural analysis bridges art history and existential thought, linking Bosch, Stirner, and modern interpretations of the human condition.
Berlin artist Elya Yalonetski, a master of composition, perfects her decade-long practice fusing overhead photography, stage design, and performance.
In the summer of 2023, my friends from the band Dobranotch asked me for a picture of them. Following my intuition, I created the image you now see on this CD and LP cover. It captures a flying circus, a balagan, joyful and effortless, just as they used to entertain their audience with gags during concerts. Little did I know, the image would become almost prophetic: shortly after, they launched a full-scale circus project.
As an artist, I strive to create a recognisable visual language that captures both spontaneity and narrative depth. I am always happy when a project resonates. You can get anLP with a poster on Amazon here or simply enjoy attending one of their unforgettable shows.
“GlücksTon” at Galerie Vinogradov in June 2009 showcased Elya Yalonetski’s emotionally rich clay sculptures, each paired with original music to highlight the dual meaning of "Ton" as both clay and tone. Blending myth, romance, and Russian icon traditions, her work resonates with timeless beauty and quiet power.
