Sergei Gushchin, originally a collector, started very powerfully, opening a chamber and interesting space on the Patriarch’s Ponds, behind the Praktika Theater. He attracted bright young curators, built an exhibition policy as a laboratory and a fascinating creative process that is interesting to watch. Experiments are always a risk, the more respect the activities of Sergei and his team are. The open competition, first for artists, and now for curators, gives the activity an institutionality, provides great opportunities for choice, and participation in serious exhibitions of major artists – faith in success and a great future. As a result of the work, the prizes “Best Cosmoscow Stand” and a grant from Ruinart Art Patronat were received during the year.
