The State Russian Museum Nicholas Roerich. In Search of Shambala
Nicholas Roerich (1874–1947) was an artist, archaeologist, traveler, writer, and public figure who left a sizable legacy of art and literature. The most common theme in his work — the influence of culture on religion and vice-versa — took shape quite early, in the first decade of the 20th century, and saw its most powerful expression in the 1920s and 1930s, a period during which he organized several expeditions to the Himalayas. There, Roerich the historian and philosopher searched for evidence of connections between various peoples and cultures. For the artist and many of his contemporaries, earthly civilizations and the Cosmos were also connected, having a common past and future. Roerich translated his ideas and worldview into articles and painted canvases, some of which will be shown by the Russian Museum in Málaga.

For the Glory of Russia. Entrepreneurs and Patrons in Russia in the 18th – Early 20th Centuries
6 June—5 August 2024
Merchants, the “third estate”, at that time, were the basis of Russia’s economic power. The Stroganovs, the Demidovs and other entrepreneurs sometimes established entire “empires” with their own settlements, roads and internal regulations. The richest merchants became nobles and patrons of the arts. The exhibition is unique, both in the themes it explores and in the works it presents.
