VICTOR DANILOV

27 December 2007—18 January 2008

For the first time the Russian Museum presents the one-man exhibition of Saint Petersburg artist Victor Danilov, member of the Ozerki Art Society. The exhibition of his paintings, sculpture and graphic works presents different periods of the artist's oeuvre from his earliest works to the works which he made recently, in 2007. The artist's works reflect the world of his images which balance at the interface of the reality and fantasy and interlace fantastically animated and inanimate, the present time and historical reminiscences. The exhibition contains the artworks from the Russian Museum Collection, the Manege Central Exhibition Hall Collection, the artist's studio and Saint Petersburg and Moscow private collections. It's accompanied with a catalogue in Russian and English.

Exhibitions

The Lives of Remarkable Dogs

17 May—10 November 2025

The exhibition explores the presence of dogs in Russian life and art. It addresses a historical process in all its forms – from the history of the state to the narrative of everyday life. A significant portion of the works on display were created in the 20th century and during the first two decades of the 21st century. Artist and dog have traveled a long road together in Russian art, and this journey still holds the promise of many discoveries to come.

Assemblage, Object, Installation

26 February—21 April 2025

The Russian Museum continues to acquaint its visitors with various types and movements of contemporary art. The exhibition traces the evolution of assemblage, object and installation in Russian art. Once shocking with their novelty and peculiar nature, now they are no longer perceived as a “slap to the face of public taste” but occupy a firm place on the contemporary art scene.
