Streetball court is closed until Spring
The floor covering of this streetball court made in the form of geometric shapes and colour combinations, was designed by Alexey Luka, one of the most notable and talented artists of the Russian scene. Since 2008, Luka’s work has been shown at exhibitions in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Amsterdam, Lyon, Paris, Portland, Rotterdam and San Francisco. While designing the floor covering, Luka used colours and images of old St. Petersburg — shades of plaster, encaustic tiles of entrance halls, courtyards, granite embankments, parquet of communal flats, brick warehouses — in order to blend it organically into the historical setting.
