The New Tretyakov Gallery presents the most comprehensive permanent exhibition of 20th-century Russian art in our country in all its diversity—the avant-garde, socialist realism, the «severe style» and «underground» art, and the latest trends. Large-scale retrospectives of great Russian artists are held here, as well as experimental exhibitions of young artists. The Lecture Hall and Creative Workshop offer a wide range of theoretical knowledge and practical classes for children, students, and adults on the art of the 20th and early 21st centuries.
Halls 27−35 and 37 feature a newly updated exhibition of Russian art from the second half of the 20th century. In addition to renowned masterpieces from the museum’s collection, it also features new acquisitions and gifts that have expanded the Tretyakov Gallery’s collection in recent years. For the first time, the exhibition concludes with halls dedicated to the unofficial art of the 1960s-1980s and the latest trends of the late 20th century.
