Dear visitors!
Today, October 30, access to the exhibition and the museum shop is limited due to technical reasons. Entry is permitted until 16:00..
The exhibition project "Zverev-GALA" prepared for the three year anniversary of the AZ Museum.
Translated from French, "Gala" means festival, celebration. And that’s exactly how Zverev-Gala performance was displayed — the whole museum space the artworks by Anatoly Zverev from the AZ Museum collection.
Author and curator of the project Polina Lobachevskaya writes: "Zverev is a holiday. Zverev is a triumph over the prose of daily routine. Zverev is a constant performance. Zverev is always a discovery. That is why, "Zverev-GALA".
"Zverev-GALA" is the seventh exhibition project in the museum. The exposition, unfolded on three floors of the Museum, included over 250 works of different genres — portraits, landscapes, abstractions, series of suprematist works and illustrations. The major emphasis of this exhibition was the incredible diversity of the Zverev oeuvre.
Included in the exhibition were a series of illustrations for the story of Nicolas Gogol "Dairy of a Madman", created by the artist in 1955. This was the first time when these materials were exhibited. A well-known Russian animation film director Mikhail Aldashin created an animated movie specially for this section of the exposition.
