Vitebsk Museum of Modern Art, Art museum in Vitebsk, Belarus.
The Vitebsk Museum of Modern Art is an art institution in central Belarus with five exhibition halls. The spaces display contemporary works and European avant-garde collections alongside educational resources.
The institution was founded in 1918 when Chagall returned to his native city after years studying in Paris and facing travel limitations. This establishment became a significant moment for the region's artistic development.
The museum holds graphic works and prints donated by Chagall's family members over time. These pieces show how his artistic vision was passed down and valued by those closest to him.
The building sits near the railway station on Pokrovskaya Street and is accessible daily for visits. A visit allows exploration of the exhibitions along with access to substantial art historical resources.
The museum preserves the restored childhood home where Chagall spent his early years. The rooms are furnished with period items and personal objects from the early 1900s that reflect his daily life at that time.
