The group "New Stupid" was created in the "wild" nineties in St. Petersburg and broke up in 2002. Inspired by the absurd poetry of the Futurists and modern philosophy, they were spontaneous in their creative actions and combined performance, installation, philosophy, literature and design to create works in accordance with the ideals of the group. One of its members, Sergei Spirikhin, has lived in Vienna since 2002.
