Armchairs, chairs and stools in Russian art of the 18th-20th centuries
18 august—10 october 2022
This exhibition will introduce viewers to the furniture preserved in the Russian Museum, a collection the public is not very familiar with. It will also open up a new perspective on well-known Russian works of art. What kinds of chairs exist? What are they made of? What do people do while seated? What poses do they adopt? What does an empty chair mean? A synthesis of painting, graphic art, sculpture, applied art, and design, the Russian Museum’s exhibition stimulates ideas on these questions and more.
Also in the Marble Palace:
- 1 july—29 august 2022 The Language of Animation in Contemporary Russian Art
