Объединение «Выставочные залы Москвы», Exhibition halls network in Moscow, Russia
The Exhibition Halls network comprises 24 galleries distributed across 9 districts of Moscow, each presenting contemporary and classical art forms year-round. The collection spans paintings, photographs, installations, and mixed media, with each venue maintaining its own rotating schedule of shows.
The network was established as Russia's first organized system of exhibition spaces, created to bring art shows directly to different neighborhoods. This foundational idea transformed how Moscow residents accessed art presentations beyond the traditional museum landscape.
The galleries serve as gathering places where artists present their work to neighborhood communities, making art accessible beyond traditional museum settings. Visitors can encounter performers, attend discussions, or participate in collaborative events that reflect how people in different districts engage with creative expression.
Each gallery maintains its own exhibition schedule, so checking the network's central website or social media before visiting helps plan your time. Most venues are within walking distance of public transit and scattered across different neighborhoods, making it easy to visit multiple locations in a single district.
The network operates a virtual 23rd gallery in the Voltep metaverse, allowing visitors to explore exhibitions and artworks in digital spaces from anywhere. This online offering enables people outside Moscow to participate in shows without needing to travel to a physical location.
