Society and culture: The All-Russian tour of paintings "Masterpieces of Seven Generations" in Kaliningrad

July 19, 2017 the All-Russian tour of paintings "Masterpieces of Seven Generations", which will be ended in December in Vladivostok, starts running in Kaliningrad.

From July to December in the seven largest cities of Russia will be presented paintings from the collections of the State Tretyakov Gallery and the Institute of Russian Realistic Art. The exhibitions will be organized as part of a large-scale project "Windows to Russia. Masterpieces of Seven Generations", which will take place from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok.

The main idea of the project is to show Russians how the country and the world have changed with the example of works created by the classics of Russian and Soviet art. Also, within the framework of each exhibition, an educational program with lectures and master classes will be organized for visitors.

Altogether, the Institute of Russian Realistic Art sends to Kaliningrad 47 paintings – they are masterpieces by Alexander Deineka, Heliy Korzhev, Sergei Gerasimov, George Nyssky and other iconic artists of the XX century.
