New materials meet new technology, street art and personal dreams at the new exhibition at the State Russian Museum devoted for the first time in its history exclusively to the works of Gen Y artists.
Called “Millennials in Contemporary Russian Art” and hosted by the museum’s Marble Palace, the exhibition is an attempt to create a collective creative portrait of a generation. On display are works by more than 40 St. Petersburg artists made in various techniques and different genres, from painting and sculpture to installations, graffiti and videos.
