AMERICAN ARTISTS FROM THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE

19 february 2009—1 june 2009
The exhibition is the continuation of the “Art of the Russian Emigration” cycle. The exhibition contains artworks by painters and sculptors, who have left the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union before the 1930s and never returned home. The first third of the XX century is the time of rapid development of the most different art streams in Russia. Emigrants brought their creative experience in America, but America gave them the opportunities for developing of their talents. Artworks by Boris Grigoryev, David Burliuk, Sergey Sudeikin, Max Weber, Vladimir Izdebsky, Mark Rothko, Pavel Chelischev, Osip Tsadkin and the others are presented at the exhibition.

The exhibition is organized in collaboration with the Foundation for International Arts and Education (Washington).

The exhibition is supported by Morgan Stanley Bank, Lukoil Company, Severstal-group, the Russky Mir Foundation and Energy Standard Group S. A.
