Mikhail Gulin is a Belarusian conceptual artist, curator, and actionist working across painting, objects, and performance. His practice addresses socio-political themes, transforming pop culture and Western art imagery through the lens of Belarusian reality. With bold colors, cultural references, and irony, he explores social stereotypes and contemporary issues.

A graduate of the Belarusian State Academy of Arts (2004) and member of the Union of Artists of Belarus since 2005, Mikhail has curated major international projects, including Palace Complex (Belarus, 2012) and Space of Diffusion (Russia, 2015; Georgia, 2017).

He has exhibited widely, including at the 6th Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art (2015) and international exhibitions such as White – Red – White Ones (Torun, 2017), Every Day. Art. Solidarity. Resistance (Kyiv, 2021), and group shows in Poland, Germany, Ukraine, and Lithuania.
