SPECIAL GUIDED TOUR WITH ANASTASIA TATARNIKOVA IN THE CLOSED MUSEUM “SEEING THE PRESENT. IMPRESSIONISM IN SOVIET PAINTING”

Special guided tour in the closed museum will not be just an introduction to the exhibition, but also an opportunity to stay alone with art. You will experience a special immersion in the material, as well as get in touch with the period learning about the artists who were living witnesses and participants of various events of the time. During the tour we shall talk about French Impressionists, discuss the connection between the oeuvre of the Soviet artists and that of Manet, Monet, Renoir. Finally, we shall touch on formalism and remember the struggle of officials against any manifestations of impressionism in Soviet art, revealing the aspects that frightened authorities in those artistic revelations.
