Alexey Korsi (b. 1986, Moscow) is an artist and curator. He lives and works in Moscow.
He graduated from the Moscow Architectural Institute in 2009 with a degree in residential and public building architecture, and from the Rodchenko School of Photography and Multimedia in 2013 (Project Photography workshop led by Vladimir Kupriyanov). In the early 2010s, he also attended the Free Workshops at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art (studio of Yuri Shabelnikov).
Korsi's artistic practice develops at the intersection of architectural thinking, photography, and conceptual art. His projects explore processes of meaning-making, mechanisms of perception, and the structures of visual language, often addressing the boundaries between image, space, and interpretation.
Since 2020, he has held the position of Artistic Director at Stella Art Foundation. Alongside his artistic practice, he is engaged in teaching: since 2015 at the Rodchenko Art School, and since 2016 at the British Higher School of Art and Design and the Higher School "Sreda".
His works have been exhibited at GES-2, the Vadim Sidur Museum, Multimedia Art Museum (MAMM), the National Centre for Contemporary Arts (NCCA), as well as galleries such as E.K. ArtBureau, Open Gallery, Triumph, Random, and Artwin. Selected solo exhibitions include Irresistible Forces (GES-2, Moscow, 2022), The Machine of Meaning (Artwin Gallery, Moscow, 2021), and Fifteen Centimeters (Vadim Sidur Museum, Moscow, 2016).
He has curated special projects such as Barbarians (Fabrika Centre for Creative Industries, 2012) and Semiconductors (Stella Art Foundation, 2014), as well as the exhibition Simple Feelings (Arsenal NCCA, Nizhny Novgorod, 2017).
Korsi is a nominee of the Innovation Prize (2012, 2013, 2018) and the Kandinsky Prize (2013, 2017, 2021), and the recipient of the Innovation Prize in the "Young Artist" category (2020).
