Multimedia Art Museum, Moscow, Art museum on Ostozhenka Street, Moscow, Russia
The Multimedia Art Museum occupies several floors in a white building on Ostozhenka Street, showing photography, digital works, and installations in rotating rooms. Wide corridors connect the galleries, and large windows bring daylight into the exhibition areas.
The institution began in 1996 as the Moscow House of Photography and evolved under Olga Sviblova into a center for contemporary media art. The shift to the current name marked the expansion of the program to include digital and interactive works.
The name recalls Russia's first institution devoted to photography as an art form, and today visitors from many countries arrive to view rotating exhibitions. Artists and students meet in the rooms during lectures and workshops that connect digital art with traditional media.
The building opens Tuesday through Sunday between 12:00 and 21:00, and all floors are reachable by elevator. The galleries change their exhibitions regularly, so checking the current program before visiting is worthwhile.
Within the building sits the Rodchenko Art School, which offers professional courses in photography and new media. Students often work in the public areas, letting visitors witness learning and creation in real time.
