"Once Again About the Abstract" at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art
Dates: October 1 – November 16
Address: Ermolaevsky Lane, Building 17, Building 1
Age limit: 0
The Moscow Museum of Modern Art will present its first-ever exhibition dedicated to non-objective art (abstractionism) of the post-war period of the 20th century and the first quarter of the 21st century. Paintings by Yuri Zlotnikov, Leonid Borisov, Eduard Steinberg, Elizaveta Olshanskaya, Natalia Parkhomenko, and other artists will be on display.
The exhibition is built on a combination of two key abstraction trends—geometric-constructive and spontaneous-expressive. It continues a series of research projects within the "Collection. Viewpoint" program.
The abstract art movement emerged in the 1910s, pioneered by Wassily Kandinsky, Arthur Dove, and Kazimir Malevich. Abstract artists speak the language of philosophy and do not depict any real objects on their canvases.
Tickets for the exhibition can be purchased through the service Mosbilet.

In 1940, a museum was established there, which in 1992 was renamed the N.A. Ostrovsky State Museum and Humanities Center "Preodolenie" (Overcoming).

Alexander and Galina Ivanov founded their own glass art studio in 1971. They produced a large number of items for mass production, fulfilling government orders from the USSR Ministry of Culture. The artists also created decorative compositions that were displayed in the country's most renowned museums.
Their daughter, Irina, is one of the few artists in Russia who masters the rare technique of glass engraving, and their granddaughter, Ekaterina, creates masterpieces using engraving, fusing, and molding techniques. The young artist is inspired by Russian nature and folklore.

"Zhostovo. Defiantly Beautiful. On the 200th Anniversary of the Trade" at the Tsaritsyno Museum-Reserve
Dates: October 31, 2025 – February 15, 2026
Address: Dolskaya Street, Building 1, Building 6
Age limit: 0
The Tsaritsyno Museum-Reserve will open another exhibition dedicated to those legendary floral-ornamented objects that have been produced for 200 years at the Zhostovo Decorative Painting Factory.
The factory's history began in 1780, when Philipp Vishnyakov, a craftsman and serf of Count Sheremetev, opened a lacquer workshop in the village of Zhostovo. He eventually moved to Moscow, leaving his son Osip in Zhostovo. In 1825, he expanded his father's business, beginning to produce lacquered metal trays, boxes, and papier-mâché cigarette cases. Gradually, he abandoned this material and began using iron, which was in great demand. Customers liked the vibrant painting, and the goods were purchased more for home decoration than for everyday use.
At the exhibition in Tsaritsyno, visitors will see not only trays, but also painted shovels, watering cans, and other items, as well as souvenirs—for example, those produced for the 1980 Olympics.
You can enter the exhibition with a ticket museum-reserve.
