Snakes have many Faces

Julia Belova

At Sotheby’s Artist Quarterly, Vienna

April 28 – June 30, 2022

Photography by Philipp Schuster

In the exhibition “Snakes have many Faces”, the artist Julia Belova creates a dystopian-looking world that refers to current world political events on several levels and brings baroque motifs, such as memento mori or vanitas, into focus. In her artistic practice, she deals with the aesthetics of the Baroque, gives it a contemporary expression and addresses themes such as hedonism, sexuality, corporeality, eroticism, but also religiosity.
