North Ossetian State Art Museum named after M. S. Tuganov, State art museum in Vladikavkaz, Russia.

The North Ossetian State Art Museum named after M. S. Tuganov is an art institution in Vladikavkaz housed in a multi-floor building. Its collections feature paintings, sculptures, and decorative objects created by artists from North Ossetia and Russia across different periods and styles.

The museum was established in 1939 as a central repository for regional art during a period of cultural growth in North Ossetia. It developed into an important repository documenting the artistic heritage and historical identity of the region.

The museum holds the largest collection of Ossetian art, over 300 works by the founders of Ossetian professional art, among them Kosta Khetagurov, Soslanbek Yedziyev and Maharbek Tuganov, after whom the museum is named. A separate group of about 100 pieces is Ossetian naive sculpture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a local carving tradition. Contemporary art of North Ossetia numbers 2,350 items.

The museum has no permanent display: exhibitions change frequently, so what is on view depends on the timing of your visit. The building stands on Mira Avenue, Vladikavkaz's central axis. Exhibition space covers 343.6 m², with storage of 374.5 m². The museum receives about 42,000 visitors a year.

The museum has no permanent display: exhibitions rotate, drawn from 5,622 items, of which 2,350 are works by contemporary artists of North Ossetia. Its naive sculpture section holds around 100 pieces of Ossetian primitivism from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a body of work rarely shown outside the republic.
