“Russian Palette” in Paris 2013

ANNUAL MEETING WITH RUSSIAN ART IN PARIS “RUSSIAN PALETTE”.

From May 15 to 31, 2013 in 12 galleries in Paris, there will be art exhibitions representing Russian art in a variety of genres and styles – for the first time within the framework of the project “Russian Palette”, which promises to become an annual event thanks to the support of the Mayor of Paris, Mayor of the 8th arrondissement, the Russian Center of science and culture, as well as the monthly addition of Le Figaro Russia La Russie d’Aujourd’hui – an international project carried out since 2007 by the official daily newspaper of the Russian government, “Rossiyskaya Gazeta”. The Parisian gallery, regularly exhibiting Russian artists, offers a thematic route, which opens a wide panorama of art by contemporary Russian artists and artists of the XX century. Each gallery has its own concept, and thanks to this the palette of works is very rich: from figurative to abstract art, from sculpture and photography to installations.

From May 15 to 18, the participating galleries exhibited selected works from announced exhibitions at the Russian Center of Science and Culture in Paris.
