This time, the market space in the White Workshop was organized with plenty of space, allowing visitors to freely browse the art and interact with the artists," said Ekaterina Savina, curator of the WIN-WIN market.
The WIN-WIN autumn market was supported by an independent educational organization program for contemporary artists "Basics".
