24 September 2018—12 November 2018
The exhibition at the Ludwig Museum is a tribute to the memory of the artist and musician Andrey Krisanov, a member of the group “New Artists,” rock band “Kino,” and the orchestra “Pop Mechanics,” who died prematurely in 2018. In addition to the painting “Mukhomorchik (Fly Agaric)” from the collection of the Russian Museum, the works are provided by the friends of the artist and the Kuryokhin Center for Contemporary Art.

In the late 1980s, Krisanov’s paintings were shown in American museums, followed by a solo exhibition in Switzerland. His work was repeatedly demonstrated in exhibitions at the Russian Museum.

The exhibition dedicated to the memory of Andrey Krisanov is located in Hall 17a of the Marble Palace.

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.

During the restoration, which lasted over 6 months, the staff of the Russian Museum not only eliminated the mechanical damage that the art objects had received at the time of the explosion, but also completely restored all 22 masterpieces, revealing their original appearance and artistic concept.
