Nikola-Lenivets Park, Creative art park in Kaluga Oblast, Russia
Nikola-Lenivets Park is an art park featuring large outdoor installations and architectural structures placed within forest and meadow landscape near the Ugra River. Visitors walk through paths that wind between sculptures and green spaces, discovering new artworks at each turn.
The park was founded in 2010 and grew from a small village into a major art center in Russia. Since then, it has developed into a place where artists regularly come to create and leave their works.
International and local artists create works that blend into the river landscape and connect with nature. The art pieces show different creative traditions and demonstrate how artistic expression and environmental care can work together.
The park sits next to a protected nature area, so visitors should be prepared for natural conditions and wear sturdy shoes. Paths can be unpaved, especially after rain, so good footwear and weatherproof clothing are important.
Visitors can stay overnight in specially designed art houses created by artists and situated among the installations. These accommodations are not merely buildings, but part of the artistic experience itself.
