The Tretyakov Gallery will present more than 100 works performed over the last century on the Crimean shaft

More than 100 paintings created by domestic artists over the past century (from 1910 to the present day) and stored in the reserves of the Tretyakov Gallery, entered the exposition of the gallery in the halls on the Crimean Val, which will open for the public on Thursday, July 3, Interfax reports.

As explained in the press service of the Tretyakov Gallery, the gallery thus continues a series of exhibitions from its own funds, opening museum margins for this. One of these exhibitions, dedicated to the 150th anniversary of the Tretyakov Gallery, was exhibited in the exhibition hall "New Manege" and included painting and applied art of the XVIII - early XX centuries.

The second exhibition "The Tretyakov Gallery opens its funds. The peasant world in Russian painting of the late XVIII - early XX centuries" was deployed in the only opened halls of the GMZ "Tsaritsyno".

The upcoming, the third exhibition will show the public unknown or little -known work of modern times. “For the Tretyakov Gallery on the Crimean Val, one of the most important tasks is a wide show of complex, diverse material of Russian art of the 20th century. Opening in 2006-2007 in its halls a new version of the constant exposition“ Art of the XX century ”, the gallery made it possible to make a personal idea of ​​the art of such a contradictory century,” the press service emphasized.

To popularize the meeting as part of the constant exposition "Art of the XX century", the rotation of work in the graphic halls is regularly carried out, thematic sculpture shows are replaced. The current exhibition of works from funds continues this work. Its goal is to supplement the material presented in a constant exposition with little -known work and new names.

The proposed exposition includes more than 100 picturesque works. These are both familiar, but for various reasons, rarely exhibited works (“universities” (1929) of Juon, “Woman at the table (Nana)” (1934) of Williams, “Lilac” (1943) of Konchalovsky), and canvases that replenished the museum’s collection many years ago, but little known to the viewer (“At the tomb of Lenin” (1924) Petrova-Vodkin, “On the Festival”. (1957) Efanov, "For the power of the Soviets" (1957) Gerasimov, "after the demonstration. (They saw Stalin)" (1949) Mochalsky).

Visitors are waiting for the discovery, sometimes unexpected and funny. So, undoubtedly, the picturesque triptych of the “secrets of abstractionism” (1958) of Reshetnikov, the author of the famous painting “Again” (1952) will attract attention. A unique cycle of his friendly shine on Academician artists, made in bronze in 1962, is also presented.

The exhibition demonstrates some directions in domestic art and artists that were not part of the constant exposition, for example, works by the so-called "Moscow School of Painting" of the 1960-1970s: Birshtein, Bragovsky, Ivanov, Sorokin, Papikyan, Friedman.

The section of graphs, including about 20 works, is interesting for more format sheets made on paper often duplicated on a canvas or cardboard. In the sculpture section, you can see over 20 works made for Soviet exhibitions.

Since the beginning of the 1990s, works of masters of actual art began to enter the museum. The artist Sokov living in the United States gave the museum his sculpture "Stalin with a bear's foot" (1993). In 1996, the gallery entered Orlov’s works “General Bust in the Spirit of Rastrelli” (1987-1988) and “Empress. Bust in the spirit of Rastrelli” (1989).

In those years, the new “experimental fund” appeared works of infante, Gorokhovsky, Tobreluts, Salakhova and many other famous artists. The collage panel of Raushenberg, presented by him by the Tretyakov Gallery in 1989 after a personal exhibition at the Central House of Sciences, completes the exposition.

The exhibition will work from July 3 to September 14.
