AZ Museum, Moscow
The AZ Museum, within the framework of the exhibition "I love Zverev", holds a series of meetings with famous Moscow collectors, for whom collecting art has become the main occupation in life.
Today, there are many works in their private collections that are the envy of state museums. They will talk about how their collections were formed, about the "hunt for masterpieces", about the search for heirs and discoveries of forgotten names, about how collecting differed in the Soviet and post-Soviet years, as well as about many other things.
Mikhail Alshibaya is a famous cardiac surgeon, but for those who are interested in art, he is, first of all, a renowned collector, whose collection contains works by the best Soviet nonconformists and Russian artists since the 1960s. At the meeting, he will tell how his collection was formed, how it was exciting and fun to buy in the 1980s from young and hungry artists who have now become honored masters, about how they had to search for unknown works and resurrect forgotten names.

AZ Museum will be on your right.
